Elizabeth Nussbaum Obituary

Elizabeth Nussbaum

November 17 1915 ~ March 29, 2014

Born in Zurich, Switzerland, Elizabeth came to the United States in 1946, settling in Seattle. She was married to Curt Nussbaum, who passed away in 1999, for 52 years. Elizabeth was a talented dressmaker and a member of Hadassah, ORT, the Jewish Club of Washington, and Temple de Hirsch-Sinai. She loved music, particularly classical music, and nature. She is survived by her children Tom and Dorie (Jim); niece Marcia Nussbaum, and nephew Brian Nussbaum (Terri).

Thanks to Jennifer Pecknold for her help and care. Special thanks go to Gratiana Scrob, Michelle, Victor, and the entire Golden Hill Adult Family Home staff for their loving patience and gentle kindness throughout the final years.

To plant trees in memory, please visit the Sympathy Store.
