Obituary for Esther Marjorie Peress
We regret to announce the passing away of Esther Marjorie Peress on March 17, 2018. She is survived by her husband Sassoon Peress and three children, Cheryl, Gay and Harry. Esther Marjorie Peress was born on March 30, 1931 in Manchester, England to George and Rachel Shamash. She spent the first thirty years growing up with her sisters, Gloria and Anne, in their home in Didsbury. Marjorie then met and married Sassoon Peress and moved with him to New York, where she raised her three children, Cheryl, Gay and Harry. She enjoyed life fully, whether on the tennis court, traveling or tending to her family. Her philanthropic endeavors spanned across the globe, mostly in Israel, and her favored causes included Micah and Holon University. Marjorie was a cherished wife and a loving and caring mother. She passed away peacefully at the hospital with her family all by her side. She will be deeply missed but her memory will live on forever.
