Fay Curtis Obituary

Fay Curtis, 95, of Delray Beach, passed away peacefully on January 20, 2018. Born in New York City, Fay lived in Jamaica, New York for many years prior to settling in Florida. With her sparkling personality, glowing vivacity, spirited and joyful countenance, and with a vitality and liveliness that belied her age, Fay danced her way through life, gracing the lives of virtually everyone fortunate to know her. Fay was married for more than 40 years to Joe, the love of her life. As a compassionate and caring person, Fay served as President of Cancer Care and held other positions within that organization.. And with her noted mathematical skills, Fay managed the bookkeeping needs of Jamaica Jewish Center for more than 25 years. Fay is survived by her devoted children Richard, Neil (Amy) and Diane (Mark); her adoring grandchildren Jenna, Michael, Derek and Amber; and by numerous loving relatives. Funeral services will be held at 11:30 am Friday, January 26 at Schwartz Brothers Memorial Chapel, 114-03 Queens Blvd, Forest Hills, NY. Donations, in Fay's memory, can be made to Memorial Sloan-Kettering Cancer Center.
