Conrad Cohen Obituary

Published by Legacy Remembers on Apr. 2, 2010.

COHEN, Conrad David After a brief illness, on Tuesday, March 30, 2010. Son of the late Reuben and the late Frances Cohen. Dearly loved husband of Miriam Yodits. Loving father of Leah Zipporah and Ralph. Devoted brother of Dorothy Esther Tishler-Ziff. Brother-in-law of the late Dr. Jack Tishler and the late Jay Ziff. Conrad was a proud uncle to his beautiful nieces and nephews, Rhoda (Wayne), Steven (Michelle), Richard (Jean), Karen (Dan), and their children. Though quiet and gentle, Conrad was a man of great courage, integrity and dignity. We thank all those who made his last year both possible and joyous: the CLSC Rene-Cassin, the Montreal Heart Institute, the Jewish General Hospital, the Catherine Booth Rehabilitation Hospital, and to his caring doctors, Dr. Earl Edelstein and Dr. William Massicotte. Our warmest gratitude to Brian Brice and to the Creative Social Center Choir, the Cummings Jewish Centre for Seniors Wellness Centre staff, and our totally wonderful, devoted friends. Funeral service from Paperman & Sons, 3888 Jean Talon St. W., on Friday, April 2 at 1 p.m. Shiva at 5051 Clanranald Ave. #407. Due to the festival of Passover, shiva commences Tuesday evening, April 6, ending Sunday evening, April 11. Contributions in his memory may be made to the charity of your choice.

Dear Miriam, Leah, and my old friend Ralph,

I was so very sorry to hear about the loss of Conrad. What a truly gentle and decent human being he was. I have the fondest memories of him and I know you all are dealing with a very difficult and sad loss.

I used to enjoy very much going over to Ralph's house as a kid. Hey, I remember the house on Noel street in St Laurent! Showing my age there a bit, of course. Conrad always had a way of making me feel very welcome there (as did Miriam, of course).

I remember when I was around 10 years old or so, I was invited by you guys to go visit Ralph up at the cottage (not sure if you owned it or were renting it for the summer). For whatever reason, I went up alone with Conrad (I think Ralph was already there). I remember we were listening to the ballgame, just chatting about life and school. He seemed to take a real interest in me, who I was, what I liked. The time flew by. I remember that made a very big impression on me. He just had a very easy manner and way about him.

I am thinking of ALL of you at this very difficult time.

Fondly Always,

Andy Cherniak
