Mrs. Gertrude (Paul) Nadler, age 99, of Saugus, entered into rest on Tuesday, Nov. 14th, at Melrose-Wakefield Hospital. Born and educated in Chelsea, she was the eldest child of the late Harry and Anna (Escovitz) Paul; the beloved wife of the late Jacob Nadler with whom she shared 46 years of marriage; the devoted mother of William Nadler of Saugus and Harriette Nadler of Pennsylvania; the loving sister of Miriam Shultz of Peabody, Jackson Paul of Salem and the late Beatrice Packer and Eleanor Lilly; and the dear aunt of several nieces and nephews.

After her graduation from Chelsea High School, Gertrude went to work for her father in JB Hat Company in Boston and also cared for her younger brother, Jackson until she was married to Jacob Nadler. After both of her children were in school, she later worked for her brother-in-law at Murray’s Shoe Outlet in Revere for several years. Gertrude was a member of Congregation Ahavas Sholom in Saugus and Congregation Tifereth Israel of Revere and both of their Sisterhoods.
