IN MEMORIAM JOSEPH “JOE” KIRSHENBAUM
Continued from page 1 moved to California, there were daily calls to go over receipts and sales numbers. Life was full in Palm Springs; Audrey became a Nationally ranked Tennis player and has a court named after her at their club. Joe came to play tennis regularly as well. Additionally, he became a regular volunteer at the stroke center in Palm Springs. Joe was blessed with 54 years of marriage to Audrey. After her death he was blessed to find another 15 years of partnership with Virginia Allen. Joe lived a full life; he was a pillar of society who treated others as he wished to be treated. He often shared his love of Omaha and where he grew up by being a tour guide for North Omaha and the 25th St. synagogue. He supported the Temple as the kids were growing up and studied for their B’nai Mitzvah, and he instilled and lived the importance of family. “Dad asked ‘don’t cry for me when I die, I had such a great life and family,’” Bill said. “Nothing was left unsaid.” Joe, if there are tears today, they are tears for the amazing relationship and times we were blessed with, and for the sadness for us that that chapter has come to an end. Joe was a mensch, to true example of humanity, and a blessing to all who called him friend or family. A blessing to this whole community. He was preceded in death by parents, Meyer and Dora Kirshenbaum; his wife of 54 years, Audrey Wolf Kirshenbaum; his partner for 15 years, Virginia Allen; and sisters, Golda Kirshenbaum and Rose Becker. He is survived by his sons and daughters-in-law, Tom and Kate
and Bill and Linda; son, Dick Kirshenbaum; daughter and son-inlaw, Kim and Todd Znamenacek; seven grandchildren; seven great-grandchildren; brother, Kevee Kirshenbaum; and sister, Phyliss Rifkin. Memorials may be sent to the Rose Blumkin Jewish Home, or the organization of your choice.
SHIRA HANAU JTA Countries that bar athletes from other countries will not be allowed to host international sports championships, the International Olympic Committee said in a letter last week. The statement followed the cancellation of the men’s squash world championship last month, which was set to be held in Malaysia Dec. 7, after the country refused to allow Israeli athletes to participate in the contest. Israel and Malaysia do not maintain diplomatic relations and Israelis are barred from visiting the South Asian country.

Malaysia’s former prime minister Mahathir Mohamad once said he was “glad to be labeled antisemitic.” “We urge all [international federations] to be extremely vigilant when allocating and organizing international sports competitions,” leaders of the International Olympic Committee wrote in a letter, according to the Jerusalem Post.
