Her beloved husband, Morris Schorr, preceded her in death in 1997. She was also predeceased by her sisters Mollie Harrison and Blanche Madiol, and her brother Jacob Cohen.
She loved engaging with her friends, whether playing cards, playing Mah-Jongg, dancing or traveling. She was an expert Rummikub player until the end. She devoured books and loved watching old time movies. She was beloved by everyone at Maplewood Senior Living, where she went to live in 2019, just before the pandemic hit. She will be missed.
