Obituary

Herman Gardner, of Baltimore, MD, passed away on Wednesday, December 22nd, 2021 at the age of 100. He is survived by his wife, Doris Gardner; children, Miriam (Moshe) Samsonowitz, Yudit (Shlomo Yitzchak) Cooper, Esther Gardner, Mark (Lauren) Gardner; and daughter-in-law, Miriam Gardner. He is also survived by 18 grandchildren and 45 great grandchildren. He was predeceased by his son, Shlomo Gardner.

He was a simple, poshute Yid who was among the very few in Windsor, Ontario who held on to Yiddishkeit and passed it on to his descendants. He never complained, and he accepted everytrhing Hashem gave him. He was grateful for his life and adored his children. He longed to live in Israel and will at least be buried there.

Services and interment in Israel. Please omit flowers. Contributions in his memory may be sent to Ahavas Yisroel. The family will be in mourning at 6503 Park Heights Avenue #2J, Baltimore, MD 21215.
