Admired Palm Beach Judge Winikoff dies of Heart Attack
Judge Jeffrey Winikoff, a well respected and admired member of the legal community, died of a heart attack on Tuesday. While at a Photo exhibition at the West Palm Beach Palm Beach Armory last week, we were given the news that Judge Winikoff had a heart attack. This was especially sad to us since we had brought many cases before him and always found him to be a Judge with integrity, fairness for both sides, and belief in Justice for all. He was only 59. 
When told of the news of Judge Winikoff's death, Attorney Carl Wald, stated "Judge Winikoff is one of the finest Judges I have ever appeared before. The Judiciary has lost one of its finest, but his memory will live on forever."
Funeral Services for Judge Winikoff will be held Friday at 12:30 p.m. at the Beth Israel Memorial Chapel, 11115 Jog Road west of Boynton Beach, with burial afterward at Eternal Light Memorial Gardens, 11520 State Road 7 west of Boynton Beach.
