Barton Waxman Obituary

1938 - 2017
BARTON WAXMAN, born to Leila (Cohn) Waxman and Theodore Waxman on March 13, 1938 in Brooklyn, New York, died peacefully on March 1, 2017. His last moments were shared with his wife, son, daughter, and granddaughter by his side. Together with his wife he was a renowned Long Island realtor. Devout to his faith, he was long-term resident of Port Washington, NY and Boynton Beach, FL. "Bart" was a tremendously kind, hysterically sarcastic contributor to the lives of so many people. A fighter to the end, Bart is survived by his wife Dorothy (Feder) Waxman, his daughter Lisa R. (Waxman) Trachtenburg, his son David J. Waxman, his prized granddaughter Joan Fayth Trachtenburg, his brothers (closest cousins) Fred Rudow and Norman Rudow, and endless cousins, friends, and even an aunt. He died in peace and with dignity as he had always insisted. He will be sorely missed. In his memory, contributions may be made to Penn State THON.
