PODEL Jack Podel, 92, passed away July 9 th in Gl-
endale Az. Born July 25, 1926 in Philadelphia,
he was the second son of Levi (Louis) and
Mirke (Mary) Podel. In 1942, at the age of 16,
Jack joined the Civil Air Patrol, hoping to be-
come a pilot. His vision was too poor for him
to follow that dream, but not for the infantry.

In 1944, Jack was drafted into the Army and
soon found himself on the other side of the
world. On May 12, 1945 he was wounded in
the Philippines. Before his release from the
hospital in July, the day before his 19th birth-
day, he was awarded the Purple Heart. Re-
turning to Philadelphia, Jack went to work at
the Philadelphia Navy Ship Yard and later in
Trenton, NJ as a civilian for the Navy and the
Defense Industrial Supply Center (DISC) as a
mechanic on experimental jet engines. As his
father had been an immigrant from Russia,
Jack was considered a security risk and was
not allowed to work on classified projects.

That didn’t stop the engineers from calling on
him when they needed his expertise. On
March 24, 1951 Jack married the love of his
life, Miriam Ellis. By the end of that year, they
had started their family with the birth of their
son, Robert. In the years that followed, they
welcomed another son, Terry, and a daugh-
ter, Roslyn. In 1978, Jack, Miriam, and Terry
relocated to Phoenix, where Jack worked at
Garrett/AIResearch as a government QA in-
spector for military projects. After his retire-
ment, Jack enjoyed playing tennis, visiting
Sedona, and for many years was a volunteer
in the Glendale Elementary School District.

Jack is survived by sons Bob (Karen), Terry,
daughter Lynn (Bill) Gangloff, and four
grandchildren all of Phoenix. He was pre-
ceded in death by his wife Miriam and his
brother Nathan z”l. Arrangements by Sinai
Mortuary. Rabbi Martin Scharf officiated. In-
terment at National Memorial Cemetery,
Phoenix, Az. Donations requested to the
Southwest Autism Research & Resource
