It is with deep sadness and heavy hearts that the family of Michael Zuckerman announces his peaceful passing on Wednesday, January 17, 2024. Husband of Francine Beer. Adoring father of Marshall. Beloved brother and brother-in-law of Harvey and Gail, Terry, Victor and Angela. Uncle of Jillian, Houston and Resa and great-uncle of Rory Faye and Brody Syd. Son of the late Morris and the late Renee Zuckerman z”l. Marshall was Michael’s pride and joy, his face lit up with nachas and joy when relaying Marshall’s latest accomplishment.
As the oldest of four brothers growing up in the 60’s, Michael led the trend in music, fashion, coolness and pop culture. No nursery rhymes in our house – The Beatles and Rolling Stones were our lullabies. In the words of the illustrious Bob Hope,” Thanks for the memories”.
The family wishes to thank the incredible staff of Centre d’Hébergment Saint-Joseph-de-la-Providence for treating Michael as a family member and making every day of his life a quality day by showering him with loving care.
