While raising her family and caring for the children of numerous others, she studied accounting at Franklin University, where she graduated in 1978 with a Bachelor’s degree in business administration.

A lifelong learner, she returned to school at The Ohio State University, where in 1993 she earned a Master’s degree in public policy. In 2010, she graduated from the Florence Melton Adult Mini-School. All who had the opportunity to know her found her engaging, witty and generous. She smiled easily and often and always knew the right thing to say. She loved to shop and could never pass up a bargain, especially if she could make it a gift. She and Bob were experienced travelers and particularly loved to take cruise vacations, most recently to Hawaii. A funeral service will be held at 1:30 p.m. on Sunday, August 12, at THE EPSTEIN MEMORIAL CHAPEL, 3232 E. Main St., with Rabbi Howard Apothaker of Temple Beth Shalom officiating.
