CUTLER Leonard Stanley Cutler, a pillar of the Phil- adelphia business and Jewish communities died of natural causes at his Bala Cynwyd home on the morning of May 30, 2017, at the age of 93. He is survived by his wife of al- most seventy years, the former Racine Saul. He is also survived by his three children, Dr. Charles Cutler, Linda Cutler and Carol Cutler as well as their spouses, Dr. Beverly Cutler and Gregg Young. Leonard had six grand- children (Jenny Cutler, Ali Cutler, Stacey Schor, Max Young, Nathaniel Young and Lily Young) and four great grandchildren. Mr. Cutler was born in West Philadelphia to Charles and Claire Cuter in 1924. In the midst of the Great Depression Charles foun- ded Cutler Dairy Products in what is now So- ciety Hill, as well as Supreme Dairy in Bal- timore, Maryland. In 1943 Leonard gradu- ated from what was then known as Phil- adelphia Military College (now Widener Col- lege) and entered the Army Air Corp, serving with distinction in the South Pacific. Upon his honorable discharge from the service he assumed the reins of the family dairy busi- ness, renamed it Cutler Egg Products, Inc., and ultimately moved its Philadelphia headquarters to Sedgely Avenue in North Philadelphia and extended its operation into the Southeast United States as well as Cent- ral America. While business was important to Leonard Cutler, even more important was his devotion to his family and to the Jewish com- munity of Philadelphia. He was a member of the congregation of Beth Am Israel since its founding in 1925 and, in fact, was a Bar Mitzvah in its West Philadelphia sanctuary in 1937 and again in its relocated Penn Valley sanctuary in 2007 at the age of 83. In 2015 he and his wife were honored by the Beth Am Israel congregation at its 90th anniversary celebration for his lifelong service and dedic- ation to the Beth Am Israel community. In ad- dition to this bond with Beth Am Israel, Le- onard was also a member of Adath Israel in Merion, where he attended daily minyan until the last few months. He was a beloved hus- band, father, grandfather, great grandfather and friend and was an exemplar of the Greatest Generation. He will be sorely missed.

A natural storyteller, Edgar loved meeting new people and could quickly put anyone at ease. His kind face, gentle eyes, and childlike joy in laughter made him seem very open and accessible to anyone. He delighted in telling jokes and funny stories -- a trait that was an asset when he started a ca- reer in sales. Ultimately, he secured a mar- keting position with the Philadelphia Gas Works, from which he retired in 1989. After leaving PGW, he went on to become an award-winning photographer and photo- journalist. His photos appeared in the Phil- adelphia Inquirer, Main Line Life, and other publications. A passionate jazz fan, Edgar never tired of listening to the classic record- ings that filled his younger years. Among his favorites were Jimmy Durante’s “Won’t You Come Home, Bill Bailey?” and Louis Arm- strong’s “St. James Infirmary Blues.” His children and friends fondly recall his love for singing, and visitors to his bedside in recent weeks often heard him sing along with Dur- ante and Armstrong as well as songs by Sinatra, Ellington, and more. Edgar and Selma traveled extensively, visiting Hawaii (a favorite destination), Puerto Rico, Alaska, Montana, Washington, and other locales over the years. Edgar met Selma in Atlantic City over Labor Day weekend in 1961 and they were married 14 months later. Edgar was born in Philadelphia and was a proud gradu- ate of Central High School (Class 184) in 1945 and the University of Pennsylvania in 1949.

After graduating from Girls High in Philadelphia, she worked for the City Parks Department, rescuing a few kittens from drowning along the way. She also worked at Bell Telephone during the day to put herself through Temple University in the evening. When she needed to learn a language to graduate, at the insist- ence of a professor she took off for Europe in 1952 to learn French. After traveling around Europe and studying at the Sorbonne in Par- is she returned to the USA, with plans to re- turn. Her return to France was delayed when she met her husband to be, Louis, and they were married within six months. She did fi- nally return seventeen years later, and the rest of her life was marked by repeated visits to Europe especially France and Switzerland. At the beginning of her marriage, she taught high school history despite majoring in Eng- lish in college. Her teaching career came to an end as the family grew. In addition to raising three children and watching two grandchildren grow up, Revelle found time to volunteer in a variety of ways. From her act- ive life at Main Line Reform Temple where she was president of the sisterhood and a member of the Temple board of trustees to helping work on political campaigns to her most recent work with MANNA – the Metro- politan Nutrition Network Aids Alliance – which prepares and delivers meals to people suffering from aids. She received an award for being their longest serving volunteer for her 25 years of service. Revelle’s world was filled with people from all over the world and all walks of life. Her house was like an inter- national hotel. All who came were welcomed like her children. She kept in touch with all - including a woman from her first European trip in the 1950’s, who became one of her closest and dearest friends, to the new friends she made in the last few years.
