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.

LIPSCHUTZ KEDAR
Dr. Heather Kedar, aka “Hobie”, beloved wife
and mother, passed away at the age of 46, on
December 3, 2020 after a fiercely brave battle
with Leukemia. Beyond anything, Heather's
greatest joy in life was her family. She is sur-
vived by her devoted husband, Yinon, and
beautiful children, Leor and Hannah. They
take comfort knowing their true angel will
now always watch over them. She was a
strong, passionate woman, a wonderful dent-
ist, and a loving friend to all who knew her.
Known for her infectious smile and indomit-
able spirit, Heather was a light in her com-
munity. Born in Philadelphia, PA Heather was
the daughter of Edward Mutchnick and Car-
ole Zeitz. She graduated from Penn State Uni-
versity and attended Temple University for
Dental school. She worked for over 20 years
as a dentist, becoming the lead practitioner at
Lifetime Dental in Langhorne, while balan-
cing motherhood with work and service to
her community. Privately, she was an inspira-
tion to those around her, helping manage a
busy household, while she quietly battled
health issues. She always had the unique
ability to inspire the people around her. She
found strength in her family that supported
her, in the religious traditions that guided
her, and the endless friends that loved her.
She was especially fond of her synagogue
and the congregation that loved and respec-
ted her. It was her contagious laugh and out-
going personality that gave her a capacity for
living that very few will ever know. She lived
life like the candy she loved--full of color,
hard enough to break your teeth and sweet
enough to fill you with child-like euphoria.
Heather treasured her children and em-
braced every moment with them. Heather
really loved watching Leor play baseball and
other sports and enjoyed watching Hannah
play basketball and baking. She was always
so proud of her children. Her love story of
over 20 years with her husband was what
people dream about. They loved enough for
two lifetimes. Her family is grateful to all of
the family and friends that stood by her hus-
band and children for the past 13 years. All
whom loved her dearly will never forget her
strength, tenacity, wit, charm, grace and un-
dying love and caring for them. She will be
sorely missed and survived by her children

law Lea Kedar, father Edward Mutchnick,

home surrounded by family on December 13,
2020. Beloved husband of 52 years to the
late Marcia (nee Abrams); loving father of
Margo (Jonathan) Marmon; dear brother of
Isabel Forrest; devoted grandfather of David.
He leaves behind a legacy of wisdom, intelli-
gence, strength, and wit. “Lippy,” as he was

Central High School class of 176, and com-
pleted his undergraduate studies at Temple
University. Howard served in World War II

was involved in several business ventures in-
cluding liquor distribution, refrigeration
equipment and supply, and, finally, health
care administration as one of the founding
partners of HBA Inc., a position he held act-
ively well into his mid-90s. Howard was a
true friend to many. He maintained close rela-
tionships since childhood, and always en-
joyed his regular tennis games, golf outings,
and charity tournaments at Green Valley
Country Club, where his grandfathers were
founding members. Howard loved adven-
ture and travelled with his wife and close
friends, including and especially the group af-
fectionately known as the “fearsome four-
some”, around the world, visiting 6 out of 7
continents. Always impeccably dressed, he is
described by everyone who knew him as a
true gentleman. He will be greatly missed by
those whose lives he touched. Services and
interment are private. A memorial celebra-
tion of Howard’s life will be held post-COVID,
when it is once again safe for family, friends,
and colleagues to be together. Contributions
