Akhtar said Parens had a different
outlook than often-cynical psychoana-
lysts such as Sigmund Freud.

“He had a more positive view of
mankind,” Akhtar said, adding that
Parens believed that human aggression
was more a response to life than some-
thing innate.

In addition, Akhtar said Parens’
focus on parenting education also set
him apart.

Sylvia was a kind and caring wife, mother,
and grandmother. She had a passion for
reading and learning and loved to discuss
and share opinions.

Sylvia and Jack shared a curiosity for
knowledge and a passion for regional an-
tiques. Their curiosity led them to become
well-informed about American pewter,
Pennsylvania furniture and Chinese por-
celain and pottery. Their devotion to one
another was matched by their love of their
children, Andrew Levy (Jo-Anne Latino)

Jerry Segal passed away at 86 on February
26, 2022, shortly after having been diag-
nosed with multiple myeloma. He was
born in Philadelphia on July 3, 1935 to
Samuel and Dorothea (née Edelstein), and
grew up at 5th and Bainbridge where he
graduated from West Philadelphia High
School and Temple University School of
Pharmacy. When he was 17 he met Ellen
(née Feldman) who in 1958 would become
the wife he adored. They raised their chil-
dren in Lafayette Hill where together they
modeled what a loving marriage looked
like for over 63 years.

Jerry’s most defining trait was his desire
to connect with people, often by “offering
advice” or through his sense of humor. His
greatest joy came from making people
belly laugh – but his jokes were never at
someone else’s expense.

He opened Buckley Pharmacy in 1964,
in Norristown, then Buckley Valley Forge
Pharmacy in 1986, in King of Prussia –
voted best Pharmacy and Gift Shop in
Montgomery County. He gave untold num-
bers of “kids” their first (and often favorite)
job, and had employees that stayed with
him for well over 20 years. Customers also
stayed “forever” and their children and
grandchildren often became part of the
Buckley’s family.

By example, Jerry taught his children kind-
ness and compassion, to never compare
themselves to others, and to take risks –
but to never wager more than they could
afford to lose. His was a life well lived and
he was truly a man well loved.

Jerry is survived by his wife, daughters
Susan (Michael) Holland and Caren Segal,
and beloved granddaughter Chandler.

He was predeceased by his parents and
brother Leonard Segal, D.O.

Interment was held at Shalom Memorial
Park on March 1.
