Ben Roethlisberger Attends Funeral for Synagogue Victims
Ben Roethlisberger Attends Funeral for Synagogue Victims ... With Steelers Teammates
Ben Roethlisberger and his wife -- along with several Steelers players -- attended funeral services for two brothers killed in the Pittsburgh synagogue shooting on Tuesday ... in support of a close friend and former team staffer.
Cecil and David Rosenthal -- brothers to ex-Steelers community relations manager Michele Rosenthal -- were murdered when an anti-Semitic shooter opened fire inside the Tree of Life synagogue on Saturday.
Among the guests who attended the services at Rodef Shalom Congregation -- head coach Mike Tomlin, linebacker Ryan Shazier and Steelers legend Troy Polamalu attended the funeral.
The entire city seems to be rallying around the victims and their families. As we previously reported, the Pittsburgh Penguins will honor the victims with a special patch on their uniforms tonight.
The NHL team is also donating $50,000 to help the victims and their families -- and will be hosting various fundraising initiatives including raffles and game-used jersey auctions.
