Dr. Uziel (Uzi) Adini, age 83, of Philadelphia,
PA, passed away on May 27, 2021 after a
long battle with Leukemia. Uzi was born on
June 23, 1937 to Leah and Yisrael Adini in
pre-state Israel. He was raised in Tel-Aviv. He
served as a sergeant in the Israeli Defense
Forces in the heavy artillery unit. In 1962, he
married Tamar Löw, and together they had
two daughters, Ronit and Tali. Uzi earned a
B.A. and an M.A. degree in the complement-
ary fields of Bible, Hebrew Literature and
Education, at the Hebrew University of Jerus-
alem. He earned his Ed.D degree at Dropsie
College in Philadelphia, PA. Uzi was one of
the most renowned authorities on Jewish
Education in the United States. Following 23
years as the Director of the Jewish Com-
munity High School of Gratz College, he
served as Vice President and then as a Pro-
fessor of Education and Literature at Gratz
College. An inspirational teacher, Dr. Adini
had a profound impact on generations of stu-
dents who remember him with affection and
respect. Beyond his professional achieve-
ments, Uzi earned a well-justified reputation
as a person of empathy, humor, warmth, and
stirring intellect. He was beloved as a col-
league, mentor, teacher, friend, spouse, fath-
er and grandfather. We will all miss his viva-
cious personality, amazing story telling and
generous smile. Uzi is survived by his wife
Tamar, daughters Ronit (Jeff) and Tali (Yoni),
and granddaughters Shira, Arielle, Ilana and
Amalia; and his brother Ami Adini. Donations

Shirley Ruth Hecklin (nee Goldberg) passed
away on May 27, 2021 after a courageous
three-month battle with COVID-19 that
showed all of us her tremendous inner
strength and determination. Shirley was born
December 31, 1936 to Abraham Jacob Gold-
berg and Alice Goldberg (nee Whiser) in New
Orleans. She grew up and attended Fortier
High School and Louisiana State University,
graduating with a Bachelor of Arts degree in
music. She met her future husband, Oscar
Bernard (O.B) Hecklin, on a blind date; he
was doing his orthopaedic residency in New
Orleans. They were married in 1962 and
moved to Wyncote, outside of Philadelphia,
where O. B. joined a thriving orthopaedic
practice as a surgeon. Shirley was prede-
ceased by her husband O.B. in 1991, and by
her son Lawrence (Larry) Evan (Mindi) earli-
er this year. She is survived by her daughter
Brenda Suzanne and her brother Myron Saul
Goldberg (Marcie). She treasured her two
grandsons, Jacob Andrew Hecklin and
Joshua David Hecklin. Shirley had an enga-
ging, warm smile and always a kind word.

She was proud of her Southern Jewish roots.

She loved when her drawl was recognized
and acknowledged and enjoyed her grits as a
girl raised in the South. Shirley's musical tal-
ent brought joy to her family, friends and
community. She performed piano for many
years and was a beloved teacher. She was
known to accompany her daughter Brenda, a
classically trained singer, at home and at out-
side events. She is now an angel in heaven
watching over us, in the arms of her beloved
husband, O.B., and reunited with her son,
Larry. She will be missed forever-and always
in our hearts. Contributions in Shirley's

Eva Sender lived a full life for 110 years. She
died peacefully after a short illness on Sat-
urday, May 1, 2021. She enjoyed living at La-
fayette Holy Redeemer and being with her
many friends and staff there. Eva enjoyed
ceramics, sculpting, exercising, playing ten-
nis, travel, and bridge. Only ten years ago she
was caught reading a book to improve her
bridge game. She could always suggest a
good book and liked us to make recommend-
ations for her reading. She had a lively sense
of humor and loved to laugh. Harold Stern,
her first cousin, would come down from Con-
necticut and celebrate the centenarian lunch-
eon where she was the oldest, and only res-
ident still living independently. We would go
to the Marco Polo restaurant for lunch and
after that we schmoozed in her lovely decor-
ated large apartment. Eva was very happy she
got to vote in the November 2020 election!
Eva was preceded in death by her beloved
husband, Henry, her parents, her sister who
she loved dearly and lost too early, and her
cousin Bill Levine. She is survived by her
cousin, Harold Stern (Sandra), her tireless
and loyal friend, Stan Dezure (Susan) and
many great-cousins. Eva is buried in Monte-
fiore Cemetery in Jenkintown, Pennsylvania,
next to Henry.

sound the alarm about antisem-
itism. If they cannot, then we
will have fewer allies and tools
to fight anti-Jewish hate, which
will only lead to more fear and
refresh the vicious cycle.

We must stay united and
focused on fighting antisem-
itism. Reporting antisemitic
incidents is an essential piece
to combating anti-Jewish hate.

So how can we ensure we are
reporting acts of antisemitism
without inadvertently promoting
unfounded allegations and
contributing to the cycle of fear?
If you personally experi-
ence an antisemitic incident,
document the event, report it
to your rabbi, the ADL and, if
you believe you are in danger
JEWISHEXPONENT.COM or the victim of a crime, to law
enforcement. Importantly, wait
to post it to social media until
you get support and guidance.

If you hear about an incident
or read about one on social
media, please do not share it.

Instead, reach out privately to
offer support and learn more,
and encourage the victim to
report it to the proper author-
ities. If you do not personally
know the person who is
claiming an incident occurred,
talk to whomever you learned
about it from and determine if
they can encourage the victim
to make an official report.

More broadly, community
members and allies should
come together to take proactive
and positive action, engaging
in education, advocacy and
outreach to build essential and
informed relationships with
key partners.

In these trying times, there
is certainly more to fear than
fear itself. But fear complicates
our efforts to fight antisem-
itism. If we can reject fear,
stand together, stay vigilant
and focused, we can bring
the energy, creativity and
community needed to defeat
anti-Jewish hate. l
