MARON—Honorable
Edward A.
We are deeply saddened by
the sudden passing of Honor-
able Edward A. Maron of
Hewlett, NY on June 18. Born
in 1940, and raised in Brook-
lyn, Justice Maron received a
B.A. from Yeshiva College
and a J.D. from St. John's
School of Law. The practice
of law, however, was not his
primary focus during all the
yearsthatfollowed.While
raising his family and becom-
ing a respected and success-
ful businessentrepreneur,
JusticeMaron maintained
connection with the law by
serving as an Administrative
Law Judge of the City of New
York and an arbitrator. He
won his first election and took
the bench as a judge of the
District Court of Nassau
County in 2000. Justice Maron
and his fellow Democrat judi-
cial nominees defied expec-
tations when they swept the
election and assumed their
judgeships. He served in that
position until his election to
the New York State Supreme
Court in Nassau County. Jus-
tice Maron maintained a re-
putation for beingtough
while always treating litigants
and their families fairly and
with respect. He combined le-
gal acumen with the deal-
making ability he developed
in business. Family has al-
ways been the most impor-
tant thing in Justice Maron's
life. He is survived by his lov-
ing children Jeffrey (Rhonda)
and Janice, Melanie (Rich-
ard) and Lauren (Jon), sibl-
ings Reuben (Sandy), Nor-
man, and Reba (Alden), nine
grandchildren,his beloved
companionPenniZola,a
large extended family, and
many friends. Donations may

Gail Rubin, born Ellen Gail Rosen,passedaway last Thursday at the age of 86. She was the daughter of Mel- ville and Toby Rosen of New York City and the wife for 65 years of Richard Rubin. She is also survived by her two sons, Jeffrey and Michael, her daughter-in-law, Lisa, her son-in-law, Frank, and two adoring granddaughters, Syd- ney and Sasha. Gail graduated from the Birch Wathen School, received her BA degree from Mount Holyoke College, her Master's degree inSpeechPathologyfrom Columbia University and had justaboutcompletedher Doctorate degree from Teacher's College when the arrival of her second child ne- cessitated a mid-course cor- rection. While still a young woman she competed with distinction in Track and Field events. As a tall teenager she was trained in the sport of Fencing, becoming quite pro- ficientandinlateryears teaching others. She also was a skillful skier and together with her family enjoyed the activity for over 30 years. While a junior in college, she datedherfuturehusband, Richard, and when he completed his military service as a Naval Officer in 1956 they were married. Gail continued her post-graduate studies while teaching at the Ramaz School and Columbia Gram- mar School in New York City until family obligations required full time attention to the development of her young family. She was a pro- lific reader of non-fiction her entirelife,accumulatinga personal library over a thou- sand volumes before switch- ing over to digital format. Her particular areas of interest were in Jewish, Russian and Chinese culture in addition to be known by her friends as a highlyaccomplishedcross- word puzzler. She also was an expert knitter and as a hobby knitted beautiful preemie babyblanketsandcancer caps for Sarasota Memorial Hospital where she was well known. Her vocation fortun- ately required years of inter- action with the teaching of children, initially as a speech pathologist and then in 1985 when she and her husband moved to Sarasota, as a men- tor of young grade school children. This proved to be a truly satisfying achievement for her and a positive personal connection for her first andsecond graders.The move to Florida and the then changedlifestyle patterns permitted Gail to more fully develop and experience her passion for worldwide travel, one she studied and enjoyed for a period of 30-plus years. She and her husband and family were enthusiastic sup- porters of the Chaim Sheba

Medical Center at Tel HaSho- mer, Israel, and the Harry & Doris Rubin Lecture Series in New York City. When they moved to Sarasota she and Richard expanded their areas of interest in support of several institutions, particularly ones engaged in the perform- ing arts. Her list of acquain- tances was astonishingly ex- tensive, but more significant is how many truly would be able to call her friend, with re- lationships nurtured by frequent phone calls and good old-fashioned letter writing. Her humor, her intellectual capacity and her loving na- ture will be missed by all. RUBIN—Gail. CongregationEmanu-Elof the City of New York mourns the death of Gail Rubin. May theRubinfamily,andall whoknewand loved her, find comfortin beautiful memories. SCHLUGER—Charlotte. She died peacefully at home on Friday, June 26, 2020 at the age of 89. She was the loving wife of Joseph, mother of Neil, Olga and James, mother-in-law of Leona, Phil and Rosemary, and grandmother of Aaron, Ben, Julia, Joey, Jenny, Martha, Adam, Han- nah, Jack, and Daniel. She was born in the Bronx and graduated from City College of New York. Early in her life she worked as a teacher and for many years was the Di- rector of Education at the In- ternational Council of Shop- ping Centers. She loved litera- ture and the arts. Her life was marked by kindness towards everyone she knew, and deep and unconditional love for her entire family. We are grateful for the long life that she lived and for the warmth and comfort she gave us always. A private funeral will be held June 28 in Alford, Massachusetts. Donations in her memory may be made to the Central Park Conservan- cy or the Berkshires Natural Resources Council. SCHWARTZ—Eli Arthur, on April 10, 2020.
