Where Was Samantha Woll’s Obituary Services Held?
A synagogue president’s funeral was attended by mourners on Sunday, October 22 afternoon. Woll was remembered as more than just a local leader as the Detroit neighborhood and loved ones gathered at the Hebrew Memorial Chapel in Oak Park, Michigan.
Loved ones remembered Woll’s “infectious smile” and her capacity to make others feel comfortable, uniting the community, while speaking through tears and laughter. Dr. Monica Woll Rosen, Woll’s sister recalled her sister with affection and called her the kindest, most generous human.
Woll Rosen added, addressing her late sister:
“Your soul was beautiful and pure. You loved with all your heart. You never said no but how can I help? You so deeply wanted peace for this world. You fought for everyone regardless of who they were or where they came from. You were the definition of a leader. Our world is shattered without you.”
People attending the service from a variety of religions were recognized by mourners as a symbol of Woll. Nessel was among those who complimented Woll for her commitment to interfaith harmony and her sense of fairness for all.
Loved ones, including family, friends and coworkers, spoke of her nature while laughing and crying. They cracked jokes about her food sensitivities and the fact that she would take off her clothing when someone complimented it. Her loved ones also shared tributes on social media.
