Malkah Tolpin Notman

Wonderful, welcoming woman, who will be missed.

Malkah Notman was my colleague from afar in the halls and anals of the psychoanalytic world. I saw her rarely. Yet, she made a profound impression on me, and l admired her immensely. She radiated a rare fierce honesty. She was real and 100% without guile. Her dedication and courage were inscribed on her wondrously earnest face. Although l knew her only slightly, she is forever engraved on my heart as deeply inspiring, a truly valiant woman. May her name be for blessing.

Malkah Notman was a truly remarkable woman. At her Memorial Service, colleagues and family described that Malkah "lifted people up." I am grateful that I, too, was "lifted up" by my relationship with Malkah Notman. Thank you to her family for sharing her with all of us.

As I hear her eulogized, I am reminded of Malkah´s tremendous impact as a scholar and clinician, but to me, growing up, she was always Aunt Mal. My family would periodically visit Boston to see Aunt Mal, Uncle Ralph, and my cousins, and they would periodically come to Niagara Falls to visit my parents and my brothers. These times are among my most cherished memories...there was always a sense of fascination and wonder. I remember Aunt Mal´s deliberate nature and her understated sense of humor, the latter accompanied by a little smile and a twinkle in her eye. I am now blessed by my relationship with my cousins and their families. They are themselves accomplished people, and their lovely daughters are well on their way to continuing the family tradition by being accomplished, talented and engaging women.

Malkah was a true trailblazer, who left the world a better place.

I have fond memories of her...

My late husband, Arnold Perlmutter, and Philip Korn were close to her as children and followed her like puppies. Their only "problem" they had was the exhortation to be as perfect as Malka.i am grateful to have met her, and have enormous respect for her distinguished career. Condolences to her family.
