Boruch Dayan Hoemes: R’ Moshe Weiss, 41, OBM
With great sadness and shock we inform you of the sudden and untimely passing of R’ Moshe Weiss, OBM, of S. Paul, Minnesota, who gained national fame when he appeared on the TV show ‘Shark Tank’ to secure investment for an iPhone attachment he invented. He was 41 years old.
After securing investment for his invention – a device that amplifies the speakers of iPhones call the ‘Soundbender’ – R’ Moshe would give over his knowledge of the business world and motivation to young entrepreneurs around the world.
In addition to being a successful businessman and inventor, R’ Moshe was also a tremendous Ba’al Tzedaka, who dedicated his life to looking after the financial health of the Chabad Yeshiva in S. Paul.
He is survived by his three children, his mother, Mrs. Eileen Weiss (Los Angeles CA), as well as his siblings: Mordechai, Esta Sitrin, Isaac, Shimmy, Yosef, Avrumi, Yehoshua, Dovid, Mendel, Leah Brown, Devorah Lunger, Shaina Knobloch, Yaakov, and Shmulie.
The levaya will take place today, Monday, 4:00pm at the Gemelus Chesed Cemetery in Richfield, Minnesota.

BD”E Rabbi Weiss…..
You were an amazing teacher and confidant.
You were there for me when I needed you the most, helping me cope with the passing of my sister.
I will never forget the shabbosim at your house…
You will be missed….
Yaakov
I miss him soooo much…

Baruch Dayan HaEmes. Moshe Weiss was a sweet Neshama. Too young to go to the final journey. With gratitude for your love and care for my son, Sholom, when he was in Yeshiva in Minnesota.
