Obituary CROLL, Fran (nee Charkow) In the warm embrace of her loving family, our beautiful Fran passed away this sunny and warm Shabbat morning of May 7, 2016. The one and only love of Reuben for forty-nine years. Adored mum and mother-in-law of Robyn, Jennifer and Michael Wolfe, Tony Croll and Adriana Decker. Special 'Granny Franny' of Adam, Emma and Maya Wolfe; and Yael Decker Croll. Predeceased by her parents, Elaine and Abe Charkow. Mourned by her most devoted sisters Jill Charkow and Jan Charkow and Jan's daughters; and by her brother and sister-in-law Martin and Pam Charkow and their children. Dear sister-in-law of the late Saul and the late Rocky Croll, Shirley and the late Herb Croll, and Goldie Tobin. Fran had very special relationships with many nieces, nephews and cousins. Fran's special way of touching everyone she met with her spirit, laughter and love will be deeply missed by a lifetime of friends made growing up in Vancouver, during her life in Montreal, through her special association with Ben Gurion University, where she served as president of the Montreal Chapter, in her volunteer work including many years in the library at Solomon Schechter Academy. Fran also had unique relationships with her children's friends, as well as friends made on numerous travels across the world. She had a very special association with Congregation Dorshei Emet, serving as the congregation's first female president and was a collaborator and mentor to so many who followed her in her footsteps.
