Amnon Wein, M.D.
September 8, 2013

"Hearing this sad news brought tears to my father's eyes (Albert Gordon). Dr. Wein was my father's hero after he was hit by a car in Encino over 4o years ago. A few years later Dr. Wein became my doctor, and I remember him as being the nicest person. I often saw him driving around Encino... If I remember correctly it was a green El Dorado. They don't make doctor's like Dr. Wein anymore. He was genuine and caring! "

"It has been so touching to me and to everyone in my family to hear and read all of the kind words about how much Dad's presence on this planet will be missed and all that he did for all of the people whose lives he touched while we were lucky enough to have him with us - the words of encouragement he offered, the wonderful care he provided, the way others were inspired by the things he did..... It is truly heartwarming to know that Dad meant so much to so many. I have experienced deep loss in my life but nothing compares to the loss of a parent. It is a unique loss when one of the people who gave you life leaves you. It feels as though the world should stop - even if only for a brief moment - just so you can catch your breath but it doesn't and before you realize it, today comes and you it has been a month since we said our final goodbyes to Dad's physical being. I will always hear his words in my head and he will be forever in my heart. I love you and miss you Dad. "

"To the man I admire most in this world, to the man whose wisdom guided the lives of all those blessed to know him, to the man who inspired all he met, to the man who cared deeper than the ocean about quality of life for all he loved, to the man who always knew how to make it better, to the man I was blessed and honored to call Daddy, I will miss and love you all the days of my life. Heaven has been blessed by your arrival. I love you Dad. "

"Dear Pat and family, Rowene and I send you our deepest love and condolences on Amnon's passing. As his surgical colleague since his earliest days in practice, I knew Amnon most closely while performing surgery with him doing many, many difficult proceedures and valued his exceptional professionalism. Our medical community will miss him. Eugene D. Erman, M.D. "

"Amnon saved my mom, saved my wife and saved me. He was my doctor, and my friend. Amnon was a prince among princes and the gentlest of men. I will miss him. Our prayers and love are with you Pat and the family."

"My condolences to you Pat & family. My prayers are with you during this time. I lost a respected friend, but you lost your partner in life. I guess heaven needed a master surgeon. Thank you Amnon for teaching us all how to live respectfully to one another. Good bye my friend"

" Thank you Amnon for being part of us on Mon, Thursday and Sunday and for the help you gave my daughter. Rest in peace and my condolences to Pat and your family."

"So many shared moments scrubbed into surgery with the wonderful Dr. Wein. I will miss your soft manner and wicked sense of humor. My condolences to the family."

"Visiting George Campbell in the hospital, yet another friend our good Doctor was helping, stepping off the elevator and seeing Dr. Wein at the other end of the hall, talking to yet another family member of yet another patient - that person expressing gratitude and thanks. As an artist I couldn't conceive of such a scene. Perhaps Rockwell might have. The tall Doctor dispensing his time, attention, advice and patience. It was a scene from another time, my childhood memories of what Doctors had been, a learned man, deeply respected by a community. A man has passed and an age has passed with him. My heart felt condolences to his family."

"Dr. Wein will always hold a place in my heart. You gave me 23 years of laughter and I could not have worked for a better man. "

"Amnon was the gentlest man I ever knew! I loved him and will miss him."

"Lomas/Encino Men's............always and inspiration.......gave his time and served many of us back in the day........"

"Amnon will be missed. His gentle wit, and humor and his service to others will always be remembered!"

"Amnon's strength and humility graced all who new him. I was blessed to be one of those people. Thank you Amnon."

"Amnon was my friend. He was always giving of his time, services and wisdom. He was a gentleman and will be missed greatly. "
