HYMAN HORWITZ
H. Vivianne (Billie) Horwitz, 91, of King of
Prussia, PA, passed away peacefully in her
home on February 19, 2021. She was born in
Pottstown, PA on July 4, 1929 to Morris and
Sally (Laber) Horwitz. She was predeceased
by her sisters Geraldine Forman and Shirley
Woolf. After graduating from high school, Bil-
lie worked for the Philadelphia Board of Edu-
cation, starting in the typing pool and work-
ing her way up to Administrative Assistant for
the Superintendent of Schools. After retiring
from the Board of Education, Billie went to
work for PRIME, a nonprofit philanthropic or-
ganization. Billie was excited and fulfilled by
volunteering her time and energies to vari-
ous nonprofits including serving as a docent
at the Philadelphia Zoo from 1984 until just
before her death. As a docent, she was a
member of or chaired several committees
and particularly loved doing outreach to chil-
dren and juniors. She received awards for
contributing “above and beyond”. In addition
to her zoo docent activities, for 22 years she
volunteered through the Retired Senior Vo-
lunteer Program (RSVP), to Hospice Care,
Historical Society of Montgomery County and
others. Her most recent volunteer activity
was with The Clinic, Healthcare for the Unin-
sured, in Phoenixville, PA, an organization
that was near and dear to her heart. She
loved music, art, theater (Broadway and com-
munity), the Zoo, Eagles, Phillies, and bridge.

She was a world traveler and wherever she
went she made lifelong friends. Her quiet
manner and gentle disposition only en-
hanced her strengths and commanded the re-
spect and love from all who knew her. She is
survived by her nephews Mark Forman
(Cheryl), Mel Woolf (Susan Shermer), and
Jeffrey Woolf whom she loved dearly as ex-
emplified by her email and license plate “ant-
bil”. As an example of her generosity, Billie
had requested that her remains be donated.

In the interest of safety, no service is being
planned at this time. Condolences may be ex-
pressed at the funeral home website
