David Housefather
On Sunday, October 4, 2020, at the age of eighty-eight. Devoted husband and best friend of Myrna Horovitch for fifty-two years. Beloved father of Anthony and Leslie (Melissa Abramowitz). Cherished grandfather of Max and Leila. Son of the late Bernard Housefather and the late Mary Neamtan. Brother and brother-in-law of the late Anne and the late Saul Lazar. Dear brother-in-law of Roz and Murray Cohen. He will be fondly remembered by his nieces Lisa and Karen Lazar, and Elana and Pamela Cohen and their families. David was a kind and gentle man, with tremendous knowledge in many areas. He was one of the rare members of the English community in his generation who went to law school at the University of Montreal, where he excelled. He then practiced as a notary for over 55 years and was excellent at his craft. He was a lover of music, art and literature and was a Past President of the Saint James Literary Society. The family would like to thank the staff of 4 North at the Montreal Neurological Institute for providing him excellent care in the last weeks of his life. Special thanks to his caregivers; Michael, Chita, Stacey and Tamara, as well as to Sandy, Aldrin, Garth and Effie who went above and beyond for him. He will be sadly missed by all who knew him. A private graveside service to take place. Contributions in David’s memory may be made to the Alzheimer Group A.G.I, (514) 485-7233 or online at agiteam.org/3/donate-now.htm.
