Henry Koperweis

Henry was one of the last few remaining survivors of the Holocaust. He arrived in the United States through Ellis Island in 1947 and shortly after, through hard work and determination, established his own business manufacturing ladies outerwear.

Henry is survived by his loving wife Norma, who he met in Brooklyn where they exchanged their nuptial vows, pledging their love and devotion to one another in the year 1954.

He is also survived by his three grateful children; Stuart, Mark, and Michele, as well as nine grandchildren; Navene, Sean, Sabrina, Everett, Tessa, Hunter, Kishor, Sophia, and Skylar, to whom he provided parental love and affection and instilled a sense of duty to themselves and their family. He showed them by his example to have familial love for one another and passed on to them the values of dedication, loyalty, and tradition.

He was loved and admired by all. May his memory be a blessing!

A graveside service for Henry will be held Sunday, September 26, 2021 at 10:30 AM at The Herzl X Mausoleum at Star of David Memorial Gardens Cemetery, 7701 Bailey Road, North Lauderdale.
