PALOMBA PAVES-YASHINSKY On Monday, January 7, 2019, in her 89th year. A former professor of French at York University, a much- loved docent at the AGO, the leader and instigator of the groupe de conversation Café et Bavardage, a stalwart for years of book and cinema clubs, Palomba remained active (and actively herself) until the very end. A woman of grace and spirit, of courage and integrity, she had a tender heart as well as a sharp tongue. Beloved wife of the late Jack Yashinsky. Loving mother to Dan Yashinsky. Devoted grandmother to Natty and the late Jacob Yashinsky-Zavitz. Friend to many, she'll be greatly missed. There will be a graveside service on Thursday, January 10th, at Holy Blossom Cemetery, 66 Brimley Rd. 3 p.m. For time and shiva details check www.benjaminsparkmemori
