The Jewish Federation of Greater Naples extends our heartfelt condolences to the Catholic Diocese of Venice and the entire Catholic community on the passing of Bishop Emeritus Frank J. Dewane.

We honor his years of faith, leadership and service to Southwest Florida and extend our deepest sympathies to all who knew and loved him.

May his memory be a blessing.

The Catholic Diocese of Venice in Florida said that the Most Rev. Frank J. Dewane, Bishop Emeritus of the Diocese of Venice in Florida, 76, died at 3 a.m. today on the Feast of Our Lady of the Rosary, at Sarasota Memorial Hospital, surrounded by close family and friends.

We remember.

Today, our Federation lawn is filled with Israeli flags, each one representing a life taken on October 7, 2023.

More than a symbol, each flag represents a person, a family, a story and a future forever changed.

Three years later, we remember them. We honor them. We carry their memories with us.
May their memories be a blessing.
