Marcel Ritter
Marcel (Martin) Ritter October 13, 1935- September 5, 2020.
It is with broken hearts that we announce that our father has suddenly passed away.
Marcel was the first born son of Miriam and Jacob Ritter of Czernovitz. He was a proud, dedicated, and loving father (in-law), husband, brother (in-law) and grandfather. We will miss him immensely. He was a gentle and quiet soul who absolutely loved jazz. He and his wife (Riva/Rovena) just celebrated their 60th anniversary. They fled Romania in 1961 and had a child (Efraim) in Italy en-route to Israel. In Israel, they had another child (Oded/James). Marcel bravely fought in the 1967 war and later that year immigrated to Montreal where they had a third son, Michael.
Marcel raised a loving family and became a professional accountant and rose to become controller at Schering Pharmaceuticals until his retirement.
He is survived by his wife Rovena, their sons, Efraim, Michael, Oded (Karla) and grandchildren Abigail and Jacob. Also Marcel’s brother Wolfgang (Yaffa) and their children Danny, Keren (Howard) and their children Olivia, Emily and Mikayla. Also Marcel’s sister, Melita (Yosef) in Israel as well as their children Nurit, Orna, Ehud and their families.
Donations in Marcel’s memory may be made to the Jewish General Hospital Foundation.
He will always be in our hearts and he has left us with great memories and life lessons that we will cherish.
Our most sincere sympathies to the family and friends of Marcel Ritter 2020..
