And danced the skies on laughter-silvered wings; Sunward I’ve climbed and joined the tumbling mirth of sun-split clouds… Put out my hand and touched the face of God,” writes John Gillespie in High Flight, a poem cherished by Dr. Jerome E Feldstein. On Tuesday November 26, 2019, Dr. Jerome E Feldstein died peacefully in his home surrounded by family and loving caregivers. His death ended a decade long, valiantly fought, battle with Lewy Body Disease. Jerry was born in Detroit to Ben and Violet Feldstein. He, along with his sister Janet, grew up in a very large close-knit family. With over 15 aunts and uncles living in close proximity, Jerry developed life-long friendships with his uncles, aunts, and cousins. While at Mumford High School, Jerry met Anita. They shared 23 years of marriage and had two children together, Jason and Tamara. Jerry graduated medical school from the University of Michigan and went into private practice as an obstetrician gynecologist. Ultimately, he worked for Henry Ford Health Systems. He delivered thousands of babies over the course of his career and particularly enjoyed teaching the medical residents. He was an advocate for women’s health and the right of a woman to control her own body. In 1986, he married his great love, Linda Rodgers. Together they travelled the world and dove the depths of the ocean with their dear friends at Rec Diving. They shared awe over our ocean’s most stunning coral reefs and fascinating ship wrecks. In his 40’s, Jerry went back to school and completed a Master’s degree from the University of Michigan: School of Public Health. In his 60’s, Jerry became a pilot and captained his own four-seater Mooney 201. Jerry was enormously proud of his son, Jason Feldstein and daughter, Rabbi Tamara Kolton. But even more so, he was proud of his four incredible grandchildren: Lior, Maya, Justin and Jared. They carry on their papa’s legacy in their dedication to academics, family, and to discovering what it is for each of them that creates the feeling of “High Flight.” It is suggested that those who wish to further honor the memory of Dr. Jerome Edward Feldstein may do so by making a contribution to: Innovation AfricaClick to Visit Charity Website |
