Henry Robert Weinstein, 90; Mathematics Professor and Furniture Manufacturer

Henry Weinstein grew up knowing how to handle fruit. As one of seven children working in his parents’ produce business in Old Orchard Beach, Maine, the budding entrepreneur later became the owner of Waynline Furniture of Georgia, a death notice in the St. Augustine Record reports.
