CARIN, Bess (nee Dobrinsky) On Sunday, March 29, 2009, in her ninety-first year. Beloved Mom of Barry (Anne), David (Brenda), Michael (Cielo), and Andrew. Revered wife of Reuven. Adored grandma of Kristi, Laura (Will), David and Alicia. Great grandmother of Lola. Very special friend of Trudy. Bess was one of six children of an extraordinary family, parented by the late Nathan and the late Leah Dobrinsky. She had the same values, warmth, geniality and generous personality as her brothers and sisters, Ben Dobrinsky, Mel Dobrin, the late Herb Dobrin, the late Ida Julius, and the late Toby Dobrin. Quiet and dignified, Bess's selflessness, patience, inner strength and resolve guided her family as her sons grew up in loving homes on Waverly Street, Mountain Sights, and Guertin. She set the gold standard in terms of raising four university graduates. As her sons pursued their careers (three of them out of town) health issues prompted a move to the Monaco Residence, where her tender nature and innate charm endeared Bess to her caregivers. She will be remembered most for her grace, high intelligence and enjoyment of the human comedy orchestrated by her family. Bess will be sadly missed by her many nieces, nephews, family and friends. Funeral service from Paperman & Sons, 3888 Jean Talon St. W., on Monday, March 30 at 11:00 a.m. Burial at the King George Memorial Park Cemetery, de la Savane. Contributions in Bess's memory may be made to the Jewish General Hospital Foundation, (514) 340-8251 or www.jghfoundation.org . |
