I am sad to learn of the passing of Professor Bernie Weiss. I have known him for many years. To be sure, he was a great scholar of History at Duquesne University. From a personal perspective, I enjoyed talking to him about historical events, politics, travel, and other subjects. He had a sound mind and intuition. I consider him an old friend who tried to help. I will miss him. My thoughts are with his family.

What a wonderful person!!! Brillant, supportive, caring and generous. He was a river to his people. I cherish my many memories of times, conversations and trips taken with him. Requiescat in pace cum angelorum.
