On November 18, 2017, Harriet Marion Frankle Trencher of Bethesda, MD, formerly of Chevy Chase, MD; Boca Raton, FL; and Glen Cove, NY. Beloved wife of the late Sidney Trencher; loving mother of Peter Trencher of Los Angeles, CA, and Tracy Trencher (Brian J.) Morra of McLean, VA, and Sarasota, FL; sister of the late Anita Frankle Vernon; devoted grandmother of Thomas Coleman Perkins and Sarah Trencher Perkins; step-grandmother of Lauren Colleen Morra (Zachary Stechly) and Claire Elise Morra; step-great-grandmother of Gabriel Christophe Stechly; longtime companion of Dr. Harvey Horwitz; also survived by many nieces, nephews and cousins, and their children and grandchildren.

Harriet loved to travel with her husband, Sid, and after his death with friends and family. Her other interests included the arts, antique collecting, volunteering, reading historical fiction, and doing the New York Times crossword puzzle in ink. Most of all, she loved her family and friends, and she was a magnet for those around her with her charismatic personality, beautiful smile and warmth.

A celebration of her life will be held on Thursday, November 30, at 11am at Joseph Gawler’s Sons, 5130 Wisconsin Avenue, N.W., Washington, D.C. 20016. Memorial contributions may be made to Montgomery Hospice’s Casey House, 1355 Piccard Drive, #100, Rockville, MD 20850.
