LEVITT, Morton Peacefully, on Thursday, December 19, 2013. Beloved husband of the late Rebecca Markow. Cherished father of Judy, Marilyn (Edwin) and Daniel (Alicia). Devoted Grandpa of Jade, Sara and Carmen. Dear brother and brother-in-law of Bella and the late Wilf Yaphe, Mollie and the late Martin Daneman, Larry and Thelma Levitt, Joseph and the late Rochelle Levitt, Aaron Levitt, Donald and the late Lillian Voronoff, Monique and the late Sydney Levitt, the late Victoria and the late Matthew Levitt, the late Esther and the late Sam Yellin, the late Simon and the late Eleanor, and the late Morris Levitt; and brother-in-law of the late Freda, the late Jack, and the late Ethel. Morton was a man of strong moral character and unwavering ethics. He was a well-respected chemical engineer who built and ran a very successful electroplating business. Very active right into his nineties, he excelled in many sports and shared this enjoyment with his entire family. He was always a generous benefactor to all those in need; an exemplary role model throughout his life for his family and community. The family extends their heartfelt thanks and gratitude to the loving caregivers for allowing him to spend his last few months in the comfort of his home: our "Major Domo" Cora, our "911" Evelyn and Aurelia. Our caregivers were expertly supported by the amazing services of the CLSC Rene-Cassin and the Mount Sinai Home Care Team. Special thanks to Linda Arsenault and Kathy Macdonald.
