Obituary: Samuel Norman Werbin

Samuel Norman Werbin passed away Feb. 10, 2019. He was the son of the late Harry and Sarah Werbin. He practiced law for more than 42 years and was the municipal court judge in Chamblee for 38 years, where he was revered for his integrity, both on the bench and for the manner in which he lived his life. He taught law classes and served on numerous local and national boards. He was a strong supporter of Israel and of Jewish day schools. He was president of the Lions Club for years, and his charity knew no bounds. He gave with his heart to so many, and much of it was done anonymously.

He was cherished and loved by his wife, his children, and his grandchildren. He was the most incredible husband, father, and grandfather; to all of us he was our best friend.  More than all of his accomplishments, he was most proud of his family, whom he loved so much. He was the best human being we will ever know. He guided our way and taught us the meaning of the word tzedakah.

He is survived by his beloved wife, Renee; his son, Rabbi Yosef (Stuart) Werbin, sons and daughters, Dr. Jeffrey and Robyn Klugman and Rabbi Yitzchok (Ian) and Sarah Werbin; grandchildren, Tziporah, Leah, Harris, Tzvi, Samantha, Yehoshua, and Moshe; sister, Charlotte Jacobson; niece Marla; Uncle Albert and Aunt Tillie Tenenbaum; and many cousins.
