Family and friends mourn the loss of
an inspiring writer and a true mentsh.

Esther Allweits Ingber I Contributing Writer

gifted writer and family man noted for his compassion,
insight and humor, Jeffrey Zaslow always lived the way
he advised in a television interview earlier this year:
"You have to make the most of each moment, because ... you
never know."
His outstanding personal qualities and body of work are
what family, friends and fans everywhere will remember fol-
lowing his shocking death on Feb. 10, 2012. Mr. Zaslow, 53, of
West Bloomfield, the husband of Fox 2 News Detroit anchor
Sherry Margolis, perished in an automobile accident in northern
Michigan.
Mr. Zaslow was driving home from an overnight in Petoskey to
promote his latest book The Magic Room: A Story About the Love
We Wish for Our Daughters when he lost control of his car and
skidded into the path of a tractor-trailor. The accident happened
around 9 a.m. near Elmira, on snow-covered M-32, about a half
mile from US-131.
Rabbi Joseph H. Krakoff and Cantor Meir Finkelstein offici-
ated at his funeral held Feb. 13 at Congregation Shaarey Zedek in
Southfield, where the Zaslow family belonged. The overflowing
sanctuary — with upwards of 1,500 people — included many
colleagues from the media as well as people of all walks of life
whose lives he had touched.
