On June 3, Peter Wells, who served as CEO of the Jewish Federation of Greater Dayton from 1978-2005, passed away at the age of 86. His impact reached far and wide, not just here in Dayton, but throughout the worldwide Jewish community. Join us as we come together to celebrate Peter’s leadership, vision, and legacy.

Light refreshments will be served. A Zoom link will be provided at a later date for those unable to attend in person.

To honor Peter’s memory, the family has requested donations be made to the Joan & Peter Wells and Rebecca Linville Family, Children, and Youth Fund of the Jewish Foundation of Greater Dayton. This fund provides scholarships for local children attending Jewish overnight camps, helping to instill a lifelong passion for Judaism at an early age.

No reservation required. Please contact Jewish Federation of Greater Dayton CEO Cathy Gardner at 937-610-1555 with any questions.
