BAYER Evelyn Bayer (née Mistetzky) passed peace-
fully in her sleep on Saturday morning,
November 28th at 97 years old. She was the
daughter of Joseph and Fannie Mistetzky,
and the youngest sister of Norman, Sam,
Luba, and Masha. She was the wife of Jack
Bayer. Evelyn is survived by her beloved sons
Dennis (Aggie), Todd (Carolyn), Mitchell(Hil-
ary), and grandchildren Jonah (Victoria),
Vanessa, Brooke, and Alex. Born in Cleve-
land, Ohio, Evelyn was the only American
born in a family of Russian immigrants.
Watching her father build homes and later
her parents both run a small grocery, Evelyn
came to know the promise of the American
dream and the values of hard work and self-
determination. Evelyn met her sweetheart,
Jack Bayer, as a teenager, and the couple en-
joyed a loving 61-year marriage before Jack’s
passing in 2006. They raised their three sons
in Shaker Heights, Ohio, before relocating to
Philadelphia, Pennsylvania in 1968. There
Evelyn set up a home and quickly adjusted to
a new life in a new city. She spent this next
chapter of her life traveling abroad with her
doting husband, whose position as president
of an international corporation took the
couple all over the world. It was during these
travels that Evelyn’s wit, style, and curiosity
helped turn business associations into genu-
ine lifelong connections. Evelyn made friends
wherever they went, and she had a story
about practically any city or country that you
could name. Until her last days, Evelyn’s
memory remained remarkably sharp. From
boat rides in Capri to nights in Egypt during
the 1970s, she could readily recall the most
granular details of her life. A Cleveland girl at
heart, she saw herself as a Midwesterner and
considered Cleveland her true home. Still,
Evelyn embraced her life in Philadelphia,
where she and Jack enjoyed years of love and
laughter surrounded by friends and family at
their home down the shore and at dinners at
the former Locust Club. Evelyn and Jack were
active sponsors of the Greater Philadelphia
chapter of the Crohn’s and Colitis Founda-
tion. Evelyn was a woman of phenomenal
taste, sharp humor, and understated eleg-
ance. Nothing gave her more joy than a good
mystery book, movie, or TV show. She was a
proud mother, adoring grandmother, and a
loving wife. The Bayer family welcomes
donations in Evelyn’s name to either the
Crohn’s and Colitis Foundation
Philadelphia/Delaware Valley Chapter, or the
Jewish Family & Children Services, www.jfc-

Adele Leib Goldman of Lafayette Hill, PA,
passed away on December 8, 2020. Adele
had many educational and professional ac-
complishments. After falling in love with and
marrying Alfred E. Goldman in The Bronx,
NY, where she grew up, she attained bachel-
or’s and master’s degrees in Sociology at
Temple University in Philadelphia. Adele sub-
sequently worked for Einstein Hospital in
Philadelphia, doing geriatric research. Adele
served as a district Democrat committee wo-
man in Plymouth Meeting, and later served
as Chair of the Whitemarsh League State
Constitutional Revision Committee for the
League of Woman Voters. In that capacity
she published eleven articles presenting his-
torical background and arguments for state
constitutional revision and later was invited
to address the League’s Convention in the
State Capitol. Adele devoted significant time
to volunteer work, especially to aid the eld-
erly with disabilities. She was elected to the
Board of Directors of Eldernet in Lower
Merion and Narberth, and also served as their
Treasurer. She created Eldernet’s endow-
ment fund and was its first Chairperson. Just
as importantly, she served the blind elderly
with personal services while also playing a
leadership role in Eldernet’s public events.
Adele was a very gifted cook, something her
family can attest to. She was also a talented
jewelry artisan, crafting silver jewelry and
selling a large number of pieces at various
Philadelphia venues, including the Gem Dell,
and as a partner at Les Artisanes, a craft
boutique, gallery and studio in Wallingford,
Pa. Adele also engaged in extensive study of
the investment markets, and her expertise
was reflected both in the results she achieved
and in her service as an officer for a local
chapter of the National Association of Indi-
vidual Investors. Throughout her adult life,
Adele had a great passion for international
travel, and she and Al traveled to every con-
tinent, and to both urban and remote, rural
(and even primitive) parts of the world. But
most important of all, Adele was a loving wife
for 68 years and a loving mother for 65
years. Adele and Alfred were deeply in love
for their entire marriage and Adele’s daugh-
ter, Julie, and her son, Marshall, could not
have asked for nor imagined a more loving,
nurturing, and generous mother.
