Jacob Bernard Betoffsky

Jack came from an industrious Jewish family that was in the restaurant and bar business. With the exception of his military service in the US Navy, ending in February 1946, he remained in the restaurant and bar business his entire life. After many successful years in the Philadelphia area, he moved to the Miami, FL area with his wife and parents, who were relocating for health reasons. After his parent passed away, he embarked on a very successful career where he would acquire locations that were suitable for the operation of a restaurant and bar. Upon acquiring a location, he would build it out to accommodate a large scale restaurant (typically 400 or more guests); a cocktail lounge; and a package liquor sales outlet. At some point, after the business was running smoothly, he would sell it and move on to another similar acquisition, then repeat the process. In 2009, he retired and moved to Las Vegas, purchased a townhome in Sunrise Villas, where he spent many satisfying years enjoying the fruits of his labor. When questioned how he managed to live such a long and productive live, the answer was always the same, “conservative values, thrifty habits, and common sense.” Jack was always cognizant of and generous to people in need; organizations that supported youth; military veterans; and conservative agendas. Services are private. Anyone sharing Jack’s values and concerns are encouraged to donate to the type of organizations mentioned above or a Jewish organization of your choice. King David Memorial Chapel handled the arrangements.
