Frieda Chorner-Laufer

It is with very loving hearts that we say goodbye to our wonderful mother Frieda Chorner Laufer. On Saturday, November 7th, 2020, she went peacefully with her children Barry, Wayne, Michelle and Robert by her side. Wife of the late Alec Chorner and Jack Laufer. Daughter of the late Harry and Mary Lieberbaum, sister and sister-in-law of the late Joe Lieberman, Elsie and Eddy Tennen, Rose and Al Berman, Harry Socket and Dave Greenberg. Survived by her sister Becky Greenberg and brother-in-law Jack Ritchie and sister-in-law Edna Lieberman.

Loved by daughters-in-law Karen Chorner, Karen Nagasawa, Zena Chorner and son-in-law Laurie Alber. Cherished and adored by her grandchildren Nikki Alber, Kyle Alber (Angela Koutros), Zane Chorner (Hailey Marcus), Paige Chorner (Adam Lachance) and Aden Chorner. Remembered with love by her many nieces and nephews.

Frieda grew up in a loving home and family always remained most important to her. She worked hard all her life to provide for her children and instil the values that were passed on by her parents. She was a woman of strength, courage, integrity and selflessness. Her grandchildren meant the world to her. Growing up, they spent every weekend with her creating a loving bond that they will never forget. May she rest in peace and her memory live on forever. We love you!!!!!!!

I am getting over a flu and we're awaiting covid results from one of the grandchildren, so we were unable to visit with you today. You are in our hearts and minds and the whole family sends sincere feelings of sympathy. Lean on Laurie ... he has very broad shoulders.

Michelle, Laurie, Nikki, Kyle and family, We are so sorry to hear of your loss. Although no words can really help to ease the loss of your mom, just know that you are in our thoughts during this difficult time. May the memories you have of your mom ease your loss and bring you comfort and courage as you face the days ahead. Your mom always made me feel at home in your house. Sharing in each others holidays and sleeping at your house, more than my own. She was such a hard working, beautiful lady, like a second mom for me growing up. She even let my children call her Bubbie. I still have the sweater she knit for Franco. As I pass this sweater on, I will make sure everyone knows who made it and all about the loving person she was. Hold on tight to the memories and lean on your family and friends for strength, and always remember how much you are loved. Rest in peace Frieda. You will be greatly missed, but never forgotten. Love, Jacquie, Maurizio, Franco, David and Nicholas

Aunt Frieda was a beautiful woman, inside and out, a ray of light that illuminated the room with her wit, her optimism and her charisma. We adored her! She was, most of all, the best thing that happened to our Uncle Jack, that worshipped her. They were, together, the happiest of couples and hopefully they're now reunited. Yichyeh Zichrah Baruch! May her memory be forever blessed!...Blanca & Enrique Laufer
