Statement from Chabad Jewish Center of Waukesha County.

It is with many tears, and heavy hearts, that we inform you of the tragic passing of Daniel Andrew Perelman of Brookfield.

Daniel was full of energy and curiosity, a gentle soul, and beloved by all who knew him.

He leaves behind his parents, sister, grandparents, aunts uncles, classmates, friends and all those who knew him and loved him.

In the Jewish tradition, remembering a loved one or friend is not a passive endeavor. Instead, to truly remember is to incorporate a behavior, a positive trait or action into our lives, thereby memorializing the life and contributions of the one we loved.

In consultation with Daniel’s parents, Chabad of Waukesha has established the Deeds for Daniel Memorial Drive: http://deedsfordaniel.com.

Please join and take on a positive deed of goodness and kindness in commemoration of the life and positivity of Daniel.
