traveled extensively throughout the United
States with his group from the USS Boxer;

study abroad. Goldie enjoyed many years of
Summer getaways at the Jersey shore to-

family.She loved living in center-city Phil-

Edna. They were a recognizable duo together,
lunching, walking to Rittenhouse Square, or
taking the bus to Chinatown to one of their
favorite spots. She was a wordsmith, always
busy with a crossword puzzle, cutting out
cartoons and newspaper articles to send to
her grandchildren; many years of selecting
gifts on great-grandchildren’s birthdays were
her field of expertise and joy. The cards,
drawings, invitations, mementos of celebra-
tions together from grandchildren and great-
grandchildren received by her were saved,
marked by her as “treasures” and at her re-
quest will be buried with her. Contributions in

MEISEL Judith (Beker Cohen) Meisel, age 91, passed
away peacefully at home on November 3,
2020 in St. Louis Park, MN. She was born in
Lithuania to Mina and Osser Beker, and sur-
vived the Holocaust in the Kovno ghetto and
eventually the Stutthoff Concentration Camp
where her mother was murdered in the gas
chamber. She and her sister, Rachel, es-
caped during a death march in 1945 as the
Russians were advancing towards the Camp.
She was 16 years old when she was liber-
ated in Denmark. More than 75 years later,
Judy provided key witness testimony in re-
cent German indictments and trials of SS
guards from Stutthoff. Her amazing story of
survival can be found at judymeisel.com. Her
life story as a Holocaust survivor, educator,
speaker and activist was chronicled in a doc-
umentary film, Tak for Alt. She was steadfast
and outspoken in her pursuit of justice, shar-
ing her story as a lesson to fight hatred,
bigotry and indifference. Her favorite expres-
sion was, “I hate hate.” She previously lived
in Philadelphia and Santa Barbara, where she
was a renowned preschool director and
teacher. Judy is predeceased, in addition to
her parents, by her loving husband, Fred
Meisel; her sister, Rachel Levitin and
Rachel’s husband, Josfa; her brother, Abe
Beker; and son-in-law, Samuel Tucker. She is
survived by her three children, Mina (Jeffrey
Berenson) Cohen of Mendocino, CA, Michael
(Soni) Cohen of St. Louis Park, MN and
Debby Tucker of Potomac, MD. She is also
survived by her step-daughters, Alexandra
(Jonathan) Bricklin and Rene Meisel; and her
sister-in-law, Simmie Beker of Toronto. Her
deepest pride were her grandchildren who
called her Savta: Elana (Yakov) Pesah of Jer-
usalem, Yael (Ben) White of Chicago, IL,
Aaron (Katherine Clark) Cohen of Astoria,
Queens, NY, Ben (Erin) Cohen of Brooklyn,
NY, Seth Tucker of Silver Spring, MD and
Jennifer (Matthew) Shopsin of San Carlos,
CA. She also is survived by her step-grand-
daughter, Rebecca Bricklin. Judy’s biggest
joy were her great-grandchildren, Mira and
Rafa Clark Cohen, Ada and Eleanor White,
Aaron, Chana, Shmuel, Yisroel and Rivka
Pesah; and Rachel Shopsin. She will be
missed by nieces, nephews and friends who
became “family” especially after losing so
many of her own relatives in the Holocaust.
Judy had a large number of “closest friends”
and was only 2 or 3 degrees of separation
from thousands of people. There was al-
ways a seat available for guests at her table
for a Shabbat meal or holiday dinner. Her
mock chopped liver, schnecken and me-
ringue cookies were legendary. Judy will be
missed by many as she touched so many
lives with her empathic ability to connect with
anyone that she left a large special imprint on
the world. Burial will be a private graveside
service due to Covid-19. A larger memorial
tribute will be held in the future post-pan-
demic. In lieu of flowers please make a dona-
tion in her memory to The Judy Project at
www.judymeisel.com. This will help ensure
that her story continues to be shared with fu-
ture generations through new film and multi-
media works. Judy was a lifelong supporter
of the Anti-Defamation League so contribu-
tions are also welcomed in her memory to
the ADL of Santa Barbara or the JCRC of
Minnesota and the Dakotas.
