Dr. Ronkin, of Philadelphia and Longport, died September 25 th of advanced cancer. Dr. Ronkin graduated from Cherry Hill High School East (1974), earned her BA in psychology at Cornell University (Ithaca, NY in 1978) and MD at UMDNJ-NJMS (Ne- wark, NJ in 1982). She was offered intern- ship and residency training in Obstetrics and Gynecology at Temple University Hospital after the program director, in jest, consulted a current resident, showing him index cards with photos of 5 qualified candidates for the program, asking, ‘Which of these should we accept’? That resident, Dr. Andrew Gerson, selected her card, welcomed her to the pro- gram in July, 1982. They married (Oct, 1983) and became the parents of a daughter (Lyssa) in 1985 and a son (Alex) in 1991. Her husband, daughter and son were always the center of her life. Dr. Ronkin completed a fel- lowship in Maternal-Fetal Medicine at Jeffer- son University Hospital and directed and/or provided maternity care, prenatal diagnosis and ultrasound imaging for pregnant women for over a decade at area hospitals including Jefferson, Hahnemann, Chester-Crozer, The Chester County Hospital and Brandywine Hospital. While working and raising her fam- ily, Dr. Ronkin returned to school in 1996 and earned an MBA in strategic planning at Haub School of Business of St. Joseph’s Uni- versity. She happened to spot a Memorial Day Weekend employment ad in the Inquirer for a position at Wyeth (Radnor, PA) for a Medical Director in Women’s Health and began a second career in Clinical Research and Development. Over two decades, she contributed in small or large ways, to devel- opment of a wide range of new medicines for new indications and new indications for ap- proved medicines in multiple therapeutic areas. Pfizer acquired Wyeth in 2009 and she stayed with the company, advancing to the role of Vice President and Clinical Head for Rare Diseases. Upon Pfizer’s reorganization in 2016, she continued her work to bring new medicines to physicians and their patients with BioMarin, a California-based biopharma- ceutical innovator focusing on treatments for rare diseases driven by genetic causes. She was an avid reader, knitter, weaver, enjoyed travel, took long walks through the streets of Philadelphia and was engaged in current political discourse.

JOSEPH LEVINE and SONS UNVEILINGS HARRISON Unveiling for Ethel Harrison is scheduled for Sunday October 14, 2018 at 1 pm at Mount Please join us at Sharon cemetery. graveside to celebrate Ethel and then later at the home of Alan and Wendy Goldfuss. Ethel is greatly missed by her 3 surviving children: Meryl (Michael Joblin), David (Mary Harris- on), Wendy (Alan Goldfuss). her 9 grandchil- dren (Evan, Alana, Jamie, Andy, Molly, Brett, Julie, Jewels, and Nathaniel), and her 13, soon to be 14 great grandchildren. A wonder- ful homemaker, who made dinner every night along with constant birthday and holiday cel- ebrations, she also became a reading therap- ist after her children were grown. In the late 1970s, Ethel became an advocate for healthy diet and lifestyle, in order to ward off heart bypass surgery faced by her her husband, Russ. She was an active member of Women's American ORT and Hadassah, serving in many leadership roles and on their boards. She was extremely well read and of- ten led book groups well into her 80's. She loved cultural and culinary events. Her heart and spirit were always open to family, friends and even strangers as she was in the words of her friends, “the hostess with the most- ess”! She demonstrated the highest moral values and stressed the importance of educa- tion, volunteerism, Jewish practice and toler- ance. She was one of five fabulous female octogenarians featured in “Bubbies in the Burbs”, a short documentary that was shown to Hadassah groups in PA and Florida. Born in Philadelphia in 1929, Ethel married Robert "Russ" Harrison in 1948. They lived in Over- brook Park until 1960 with their 4 children and then moved to Havertown. At age 64, Ethel became a widow and moved to Latches' Lane condominium, where she resided until her death October 12, 2017. She lived a long, happy, mostly healthy, fiercely inde- pendent, vibrant, and involved existence until the last year of her life when the obstacles of aging increased and diminished her quality of life. We are blessed that she went quickly without suffering and are grateful for the time we had with her and what we learned from her about cherishing life's blessings. Her memory is a blessing for all that knew her. Please join us on October 14 at Mount Shar- on. To place a Memorial Ad call 215.832.0749 Honor the memory of your loved one...
