BERNSTEIN Dene Katzenberg Bernstein, 100, died peace-
fully at her home in the Elkins Park House, on
February 20, 2017. Born May 30, 1916, in
Philadelphia to Carrie Pollack and Lucien
Katzenberg, Dene attended the Oak Lane
Country Day School, Simon Gratz High
School, and the University of Pennsylvania.

She lived all her life among her many cous-
ins and girlhood friends. She was the loving
wife for thirty-nine years of Edgar Bernstein,
who died in 1975. A homemaker and philan-
thropist, she was active in Fellowship House
and Farm, the Jewish Family and Children’s
Service, and the World Affairs Council. She
made numerous anonymous benefactions in-
cluding many gifts of college tuition and a
fund to care for Jewish HIV-AIDS patients.

Her great loves were her family, her country,
Tripp Lake Camp, traveling the world, paint-
ing, antiques, reading, and laughing. She was
a life-long patron of the orchestra, opera,
theaters, and museums of Philadelphia. The
character trait she most admired was “stick-
to-itiveness.” The family is very grateful for
the compassionate efforts of her longtime
housekeeper Maria Pereira, her steadfast
caregivers Beverly Brown, Tamika Whiting,
Stacey Flowers, Stacey Scott, and the nurses
of the Visiting Nurse Association of Greater
Philadelphia. Dene will be sorely missed by
her sons Alan (JoAnne) Bernstein, Philip
(Leslie) Bernstein, her daughter Barbara (Irv)

BOGUTZ Helene Ross Bogutz, February 25, 2017, 79
yrs., of Jupiter, Florida and Ventnor, New Jer-
sey lost her long, courageous battle with
ovarian cancer on February 25, 2017. Helene
was a true inspiration to many during the last
six years (as she was through the rest of her
life), as she fought with grace, dignity and
strength, never giving in to the disease,
through the very end. Helene is survived by
her loving husband and best friend of 56
years Jerome Bogutz, children Marc (Laurie)
Bogutz of Bryn Mawr, Pennsylvania and Tami
Bogutz Steinberg of Voorhees, New Jersey,
sister Lenore Koplin (Paul) Seidman of
Henderson, Nevada, grandchildren Stephanie
Bogutz, Jessica Bogutz and Ariel Steinberg
and step-grandchildren Avital, Nadiv and
Benjamin Steinberg. Helene was born in
Philadelphia, PA on July 27, 1937. She was
the daughter of the late Betty and Jack Ross.

A graduate of Temple University with a B.A.

in Education, Helene taught second grade in
the Philadelphia school system. She later co-
owned and operated a party decorating busi-
ness on the Main Line in the late 70's/early
80’s. Helene was active in the American
Friends of Hebrew University and was
honored with Jerry as Founders of Hebrew
University in Jerusalem. Helene was in-
volved in local, state and national Bar Associ-
ation activities for over forty years with Jerry.

She brought her energy, passion and self-
lessness to the many charitable and com-
munity works she was involved in over the
years. Her great loves were her family and
friends, traveling, painting, needlepoint, golf-
ing, gardening, theater, reading and simply
enjoying life. Helene’s final thoughts re-
mained focused on the issues of others
rather than her own. Helene wanted future
ovarian cancer patients to face a better out-
look. Helene’s focus was on early detection,
something almost nonexistent today. After
spending time with the Director of The Penn
Ovarian Cancer Research Center (part of the
Abramson Cancer Center), Helene and Jerry
established the Helene Ross Bogutz Ovarian
Cancer Early Detection Fund at the Ab-
ramson Cancer Center, which will be funding
the first Helene Ross Bogutz Conference on
early detection on October 16, 2017. The
Conference will be hosted by doctors from
the Abramson Cancer Center with speakers
and attendees from major hospitals and re-
search centers from around the country.

Hopefully, the collaboration will accelerate
progress on early detection. Helene was op-
timistic that new treatments, cures and pre-
vention of ovarian cancer are achievable.

Helene wanted her greatest legacy, beyond
her family, to be an increased focus on this
somewhat neglected disease and attract oth-
ers to support the effort. Relatives and
friends were invited to Services at Beth Am
Temple, 2259 Central Blvd., Jupiter, Florida
on Monday, February 27, 2017 at 2 p.m. The
burial followed at the Star of David Cemetery
of the Palm Beaches, 9321 Memorial Park
Rd, West Palm Beach, Florida. The family
asked that contributions in Helene’s memory
be made to benefit the Helene Ross Bogutz
Ovarian Cancer Early Detection Fund at the
Abramson Cancer Center c/o Carolyn Brown,
3535 Market Street, Suite 750, Philadelphia,
PA 19104. Checks should be made out to
