Marilyn Magid, a beloved wife, mother, grandmother, aunt and friend, passed away peacefully on March 11 at the age of 96 in Rock Tavern, NY where she resided with her family.

She was born on June 16, 1929 in Brooklyn, NY to Louis and Lena Levy. Marilyn grew up in East Flatbush, Brooklyn and summered in White Lake, NY. She attended P.S.244.

She was a homemaker where she was known for her kindness, strength, and unwavering love for those around her & in the neighborhood. She was a very active member of her children’s PTA.
