Zelda “Celia” Diamond, beloved mother of
Martin and Judith Abrahamson and Iris and
Bud Polatsch, passed away peacefully
No v e m be r 1 , 2 02 1 , in P hila del ph ia,
Pennsylvania at the age of 100. Born in Glas-
gow, Scotland on January 13, 1921, she was
the daughter of Jessie and Louis Steinberg
and the sister of Leah, Joe, Esther and Mor-
ris. Celia was the devoted grandmother of
Ross, Sari, Lauren and Justine and was the
adoring great grandmother of Dylan, Sophia,
Jodi, Dean, Max and Zoe. She was the former
wife of the late Alex Abrahamson and the
widow of Edward Diamond. Celia lived a long
and full, independent life, filled with love of
family and friends in three countries- Scot-
land, Israel and the United States. She most
recently found a wonderful group of friends
at Paul’s Run, where she was actively in-
volved in the community. Playing bridge at
her son Martin’s house was the highlight of
her week, and she loved spending time with
her grandchildren and great grandchildren as
often as possible. Celia returned both to Glas-
gow and to Israel for special trips where she
was reunited with family and friends. And at
age 93, she became a bat mitzvah! She was a
strong, vibrant, determined woman who will
be greatly missed.

Our family is deeply saddened to share the
passing of Rabbi Miriam (Mimi) Polin Fer-
raro on October 29, 2021. After a long and
courageous fight with cancer, and with her
family surrounding her, she left peacefully on
Friday evening, just before Shabbat. She is
survived by husband Stephen Ferraro, daugh-
ters Jocelyn (Zachary) Spitz, Allyson
(Zachary) Beyer, Erica Ferraro, son Benjamin
Ferraro, and grandsons Owen and Dylan
Spitz. Mimi is also survived by her sisters
Carol (Yossi) Sheffer, and Sandra (Michael)
Goldberg, her nieces and nephews, and their
families. Mimi received her Bachelor's De-
gree in Music Therapy from Temple Uni-
versity, her Master’s degree, as well as her
Doctorate in Jewish Education from Gratz
College, and her Rabbinic degree from Re-
constructing Judaism (formerly known as
Reconstructionist Rabbinical College).

Among her many accomplishments, she was
heavily involved in the Jewish community for
most of her life. She will be greatly missed
for her devotion to her family, friends, and
the Jewish community. All donations in
Mimi’s memory can be made to Fox Chase
Cancer Center or the Amanda Sham Re-
source Center at Old York Road Temple Beth
Am. Our family takes great comfort in know-
ing that Mimi is no longer in pain. May she
forever be remembered for her humor,
warmth, wisdom, courage, and strength, and
may she forever rest peacefully.

It is with profound sadness that we acknow-
ledge the passing of Sylvia (Miller) Gutman
on October 14, 2021, four months after her
100th birthday. Born on June 13, 1921 in Al-
lentown, Pennsylvania to Philip and Pauline
Taradash-Miller. Sylvia attended what was
then known as Allentown High School gradu-
ating in the class of 1939. She thereafter at-
tended Cedar Crest College. While in Al-
lentown, Sylvia met her beloved Bernard
“Bernie” Gutman whom she married in Janu-
ary of 1943. Sylvia and Bernie then moved to
Bayonne, New Jersey to start a business to-
gether and raise a family. In 1955 Sylvia and
Bernie moved back to Allentown,
Pennsylvania to be closer to her family where
she remained until 1986 when she moved to
Tamarac, Florida until her recent passing.

Sylvia is survived by her brother, Norman
(Maxine) Miller, her children, Glenn (Arlene)
Gutman, Richard (Linda) Gutman and Ellen
(William) Cogan as well as three grandchil-
dren and three great grandchildren. Sylvia is
also survived by loving nieces, nephews and
cousins. Sylvia, indeed, lived a full and
blessed life, devoted to her family to the very
end. In lieu of contributions, Sylvia would
have much more preferred that you do
something kind for a friend, neighbor or eld-
erly person.
