Renee (Mindell) and Gordon Swirsky of Orchard Cove in Canton, MA, previously of Boynton Beach, FL and Pittsfield, MA. Daughter of the late Clara & Jules Mindell, Renee entered into rest on Saturday, November 8th. Son of the late Sonia & Benjamin Swirsky, Gordon entered into rest on Wednesday, November 12th, 73 hours after his beloved wife. Renee and Gordon would have celebrated their 71st anniversary on November 14.
Devoted parents of Mark Swirsky and Debbie (David) Wolf. Loving grandparents of Jesse (Jen), Joshua (Samantha), Daniel (Mimi), Jamie, and Alanna (Herschel), and “GG” and “Popeye” to ten great-grandchildren. They were predeceased by Renee’s sister and brother-in-law, Nona & Marvin Rosen.
Renee lit up every room with her magnetic personality and was a friend to everyone she met even once. She loved to dance, sing, play golf, gamble, laugh, and party. Gordy was an entrepreneur who started his own business, The Photo Shop in Pittsfield, at age 17 and served that community with distinction for many years before his retirement. He was extremely thoughtful and creative, and he treated everyone with grace and respect.
Of course, of greatest importance to both was their family, who loved them dearly. They will be greatly missed.
Graveside funeral service and shiva will be private.
