lenges, Peter set his sights on the health care

enjoyed forty-seven years of happily wedded

Harriet Rosenberg (nee Mondelblatt), aged
93, of Abington and Philadelphia, PA, passed
away peacefully on September 12, 2021. She
was the beloved wife of the late Harold
Rosenberg, and is survived by her children,
Iris (Kevin) Parker and Murray (Lorna)
Rosenberg. Grandmother to Reid, Johanna,
and Hilary Parker (Corley,) and David, Aryeh,
and Judith Rosenberg; and Great-Grand-
mother to Noah and Micah Parker, Jordan
and Juliana Majors, and Max Corley. Harriet
was born in South Philadelphia and raised as
the only child of Fannie (nee Fogelman) and
David Mondelblatt. She grew up in a loving
home surrounded by her extended family.

Sunday dinners and numerous family gather-
ings and lifecycle events caused Harriet to
develop a strong focus on family, something
she always cherished and ardently promoted
throughout her life. Harriet and Harold mar-
ried in 1951 and purchased a home in North-
east Philadelphia where they lived for 40
years. She took great pride in her role as
homemaker while Harold manufactured wo-
men’s lingerie at his Garden Looms factory.

She attended numerous school events that
involved her children and grandchildren,
bringing her great joy. Harriet and Harold rel-
ished spending time with their grandchildren
and traveling. After Harold’s death, Harriet
continued this tradition by taking each of her
grandchildren on a “big trip” after their
Bar/Bat Mitzvah: Disney World, London and
Paris, Alaska, Italy, and the Caribbean. Har-
riet went back to work at the age of 50 for the
School District of Philadelphia until her
“early” retirement at the age of 82 1/2. She
loved her administrative assistant position in
the RITE/MERIT Program and the people she
worked with each day. Harriet’s co-workers,
who included many nuns, teachers, and ad-
ministrators, were a great source of love and
support during her working years and in re-
tirement. Harriet lived independently until the
end of April 2021. She enjoyed going to fam-
ily gatherings, numerous educational and
music programs, and Shabbat services. She
was very generous, warm, and optimistic.

She shared her winning smile with all whom
she met. Please consider a donation in her
memory to Adath Jeshurun Congregation,
Sharing is Caring Fund at Reform Congrega-
tion Keneseth Israel, or the American Dia-
betes Association. Funeral and Shiva will be
private due to Covid restrictions.

We mourn the loss of our beloved Miriam
Smolow who passed away on Saturday,
September 4, 2021. She was the wife of Ernie
Smolow (died July 28, 2020), mother of Ron
(Nan) Smolow and Craig (Rhoda) Smolow,
grandmother of Lauren, Jessica, Andrea, Mi-
chael, Erica and Josh and great-grandmother
of 10, sister of Leonard Hoffner and Judith
Cohen. Miriam was a “gute neshuma.” Her
life was always about the other person. She
had the remarkable ability to empathize, to
feel what you were feeling. She will be re-
membered for her most beautiful, loving, and
caring smile. Miriam grew up in Philadelphia
with her brother & sister during the great de-
pression. She married Ernie when he re-
turned home from WWII. She was a success-
ful businesswoman, way ahead of her time.

Early on, Miriam worked out of the home
selling real estate and insurance. Later, she
had a very successful career working for
Almo Electronics. Miriam encouraged her
sons and her grandkids to be independent
and self-reliant and often said, “Make sure
you get a good education” and always sup-
port the Jewish community. When you vis-
ited with her, she would always end the visit
with a loving squeeze of the hand, a kiss
goodbye, and would say: “Thank you for be-
ing you”. Memorial contributions can be
made to Hadassah, 40 Wall Street New York,
NY 10005, PLEASE NOTE: #TMSM09C in the

On August 30, 2020, the world lost a one-of-
a-kind man, Joel Louis Glauser. He was a lov-
ing and devoted husband, father, grandfather,
brother, uncle, friend and accountant.

However, his greatest success was how he
loved his family. There is not a day that goes
by that Joel is not missed. People like to say
that Joel was “larger than life” and had a
“heart of gold”. He was a successful busi-
nessman and problem-solver. He treated all
of his clients and friends as if they were his
extended family. Joel is survived by his wife
of 40 years, Marcy Glauser; his children,
Jerry, Michael, Brian (Audra), and Jennifer;
his grandchildren, Levi and Noah; his broth-
er and sister-in-law, Gary and Shari Glauser;
and his sister-in-law and brother-in-law,
Hope and David Schaefer.
