Cohan is heart- broken to announce his death on October 20th at the age of 88. Donald was born in New York, NY on February 24th, 1930 to Dora (Seldin) Smith and Nathan Alan Smith. After Nathan’s premature death, Dora mar- ried William Cohan who adopted Donald at a young age. Donald graduated cum laude with a BA from Amherst College and a LLD from Harvard Law University. He was a partner at Dilworth, Paxon, Kalish & Kauffman and was known as an authority on Wills, Trusts and Estate Law on which he widely published and lectured. Later, he changed careers when he founded the Donesco Company, specializing in real estate development, investment, man- agement and consulting. Donald served on numerous Boards and Committees including The Philadelphia Orchestra, The Academy of Music, the United States Olympic Yachting Committee, the Abramson Cancer Center at the University of Pennsylvania, the Jewish Employment Vocational Services, the North American Friends of Israeli Oceanographic Institute, and Amherst College where he donated the Cohan Dormitory. He particu- larly enjoyed establishing the Balch Institute for Ethnic Studies in Philadelphia and serving on the Board of Governors at the Vineyard Haven Yacht Club in Massachusetts for many years. Active in many sports throughout his life-squash, tennis, skiing and golf, sailing became his passion at the age of 35. He rep- resented the United States in over 16 World and Olympic Class Championships and was a member of the US Sailing Team. In 1972, Donald proudly represented our country in the Munich Olympics by winning a bronze medal in the Dragon class. He was the first Jewish athlete to win an Olympic medal in Yachting. Donald was a true Renaissance man: a scholar, an athlete, a debater, a poet, a Patron of the Arts, a philosopher, an histor- ian, and a family man. He was the recipient of numerous awards both personally and professionally, including the Senatorial Medal of Freedom. He set the bar high with his vic- tories, attitude, generosity and sportsman- ship and he actively fought through medical adversity. He battled Hodgkin’s and non- Hodgkin’s lymphoma several times and nu- merous brain meningiomas. His family was always proud of his determination against the odds and the elements. Donald was a vora- cious reader, a scholar, a practical joker. He was creative, competitive, and determined - a larger than life character. Above all, he was an exceptional husband and father and grandfather. His family always came first. Donald is survived by his wife of 58 years, the light of his life, Trina (Polen) Cohan; his children, Rachel Cohan Albert, Benjamin Co- han and Susannah Cohan McQuillan; His son-in-laws, Jonathan Albert and Joe McQuil- lan and his grandchildren, Sarah and Jake Al- bert, Minori and Manna Cohan, Will and Mat- thew McQuillan, and Kara McQuillan and her daughters Kaya and Sierra Secouler. He is also survived by his stepsiblings, Ron and Harvey Shapiro and Dede Ulanet; his brother- in-law, Stephen Polen; and many cousins, in- cluding Bob Cohan, Wilma Maskit, , Jane Zer- uld and Leonard Cohan. Donald’s memorial service will be determined at a future date. Donations in his memory may be made to The Abramson Cancer Center at the Uni- versity of Pennsylvania in honor of his dear friend, Dr. John Glick, or to Sail Martha’s Vineyard. There are no words to express how greatly Donald will be missed by those of us who have loved and cherished him throughout our lives. May his sails always be filled with steady winds as he dances above the rhythm of the waves. JOSEPH LEVINE and SONS www.JewishExponent.com Selma Field Cohen, November 3, 2018.

Disson, born August 30, 1928 and died peacefully on November 16, 2018. Stanley was born in the Strawberry Mansion neighborhood of Philadelphia but lived nearly all of his adult life in the Broomall / Valley Forge area of PA before moving to Fairfax, Virginia in 2018. Stanley graduated from Central High School and the University of Pennsylvania Moore School of Engineering and did post graduate studies at the Uni- versity of Maryland and the University of Pennsylvania. After serving in the United States Air Force, Stanley became a senior ex- ecutive of Burroughs Corporation managing their Special Systems Division in Paoli and then Vice President at AEL Defense Corp. During his professional career, along with having five patents, he co-edited an engineer- ing textbook which was so informative that the Russians “stole” the book and translated it into Russian and Polish. He also created the Washington DC electrical engineering chapter of IEEE and became the president of the Philadelphia area chapter of IEEE. Stan- ley became an avid golfer and was very in- volved with his country club, White Manor. After moving out of Broomall, the neighbor- hood where he and Joanne raised their chil- dren, he moved into Valley Forge Towers and then Shannondell. At both the Towers and Shannondell, Stanley became one of the un- official “technical support” residents who was always available to help other residents with computer, telephone and television con- nectivity issues. Stanley was preceded in death by his parents, Benjamin and Rae Dis- son, and his wife of almost 62 years, Joanne Feldman Disson. Stanley is survived by his two children, Stephen Disson and his wife Cheryl Kressin Disson and Barbara D. Koffer and her husband Larry Koffer. Stanley had five grandchildren Nicole Disson, Scott Dis- son (Michelle Disson), Eric Disson, Brittany Koffer, Rachel Koffer, and one greatgrand- child on the way.

The most im- portant to her was the American Diabetes As- sociation (ADA) where she pioneered the par- ticipation of laypeople in the Greater Phila af- filiate when her oldest daughter developed ju- venile diabetes. She helped at a camp for dia- betic children (Camp Firefly in Spring Mount, PA), raised money with Rick for diabetes pro- grams, organized the first National Youth Committee & Youth Congress, originated and authored Kids Korner (always an advocate for children and families!) for Diabetes Forecast magazine, served as an acclaimed National Secretary, and received many awards, includ- ing a Lifetime Achievement Award, for her dedicated volunteer work.
