SAN DIEGO
Marty Weiss has no memory of his grandmother Sadie. Nor does the 85-year-old resident of San Diego’s San Carlos neighborhood remember anyone in his family ever visiting Israel or having a desire to move there.
But 98 years ago in New York, Jewish housewife Sadie Weiss made a significant investment in her family’s future. In September 1923, she bought five shares of stock in a bank created to fund the establishment of a Jewish homeland. Twenty-five years later, her dream was achieved when the state of Israel was created in the aftermath of the Holocaust. But by then, Sadie was gone, and the story of her shares died with her.
