Bernard Horowitz, a much loved husband, father, grandfather, brother, uncle and friend to many passed away peacefully on January 5th at the age of 96 with daughter Jessica, son-in-law Andrew and granddaughter Calla at his side.

He is survived by his four children, Elizabeth, Andrew, Edward, and Jessica, their partners Joel Schwartz, Kathleen Barnes and Andrew MacCrimmon, and his seven grandchildren Connor, Dylan, Anna, Calla, Nora, Sofia and Clara.
He was a child of the depression and a WWII vet, who respected education and hard work, built a successful career, and was able with Zelda, to travel the world, scuba dive on nearly every continent, and celebrate his extended family - the center of his universe. He had a full life, and will be missed by many. As he passed, granddaughter Calla told him to give grandma our love.
