We would like to express our sincere condolences to a truly lovely woman and a life well lived. Eleanor and Bob Risman
February 20, 2017
Charlotte Bloomberg's 102-year walk with divine lamp trimmed and burning and light shining brightly and brilliantly has been truly, graciously and humbly inspirational throughout these tumultuous years. As we here in hill country Texas watched, worshipped, waited and welcomed a favorite Son, friend, scholar, soldier back from 9/11/01 Pentagon assignment, the steadfast work and selfless words to heal, help and hold together community was comforted by the blessed faith & hope of your family living daily in the midst of longsuffering. Breath stilled and silenced of a steeled and stoic psalmist and songstress is sweet only in certainty of undeniable faith. Thank you for consistent goodness, exemplary planning and visionary hope. For me, Mrs Emma Louise Mullins Simmons (known often as Mrs. ELMS) lived each day in undeniable faith quietly entering eternal rest on Friday, just as Sabbath preparatory praises were ongoing. The family tradition to "Remember the Sabbath Day, to keep it holy" is balm for ever healing, hope and honor. King David Simmons Sr mourns the loss of his lifelong helpmate with love, joy and peace. Please pardon the delay of public sympathy message to The Bloomberg Family. The praiseworthy path to 102-year legacy has been noteworthy goal. ELMS', 81-year saint's, burden now is laid down. Trees die standing, saluting the sun.

I wish I could be with you to hold your hand, embraze you and tell you that in times like this, you can count on me.
I in addition tell you that she is still here with us not in the same form, but she is here. She is not totally gone and she will never be.

My sincere condolences to Mr. Michael Bloomberg and to all the members of his family. I know how Mr. Bloomberg must feel...I lost my mom (May God bless her soul!) almost 7 years ago. Everyday, I pray my mom and talk to her. She was SO good!
I will mention Mrs. Bloomberg's name in my prayer at 3 o'clock (3-o'clock-Divine-Mercy prayer). I do this because Mr. Bloomberg is a good man and a good mayor.
Sincerely,
Paul Plamondon

Please accept my sympathy for your loss. I did not know your Mom but reading the many beautiful words about her; I could not help but say a few words. Your Mom epitomized everything that a Mother should be. I know God has welcomed her home and said ‘Well done thou good and faithful Servant’.
May God bless and keep your family.

Dear Margie,
You probably won't remember me, for I lived in Medford when we were young children growing up. I lived on Winthrop St. I remember one time going to your birthday party for a wonderful dinner. Both our Mothers were very active in the Jewish community. This was when there was just the Jewish Community Center, no Temple Shalom, yet. I hope that my Mother can live to her 100's. What an extraordinary women your Mother was. Please give your family my deepest sympathy. You are all in my heart and prayers.

Charlotte Bloomberg seems to have been a remarkable woman.
I truly admire the fact that despite great wealth she chose to work hard and live simply.
Her ego was small and her heart was big.
May God bless you, Charlotte!
You will live on in the hearts of many.

Dear Marjorie and Michael
I just heard today that your mother died yesterday. I am living in Western MA, near Amherst, but drove into Medford today for an appointment. As I drove by your old street, I felt such a sense of loss, but also of memories of growing up in Medford and Temple Sholom.
My memories go back to when your mother and mine, Ethel Goldman were Girl Scout Leaders together. They went on to co-lead both Hadassah and Sisterhood chapters many times at Temple Sholom. They led so well together.
The last time I was with your mother was the spring of 2008. My mother was dying of pulmonary fibrosis. The Cantor from Temple Shalom came to visit and asked what he could do for her. Her request was,"bring Charlotte" He brought her and these two old friends, one dying, and one about to celebrate her 100th birthday, talked for over two hours. What wonderful, giving women they were.
I read that the funeral is private, and that there will be a Memorial Service. I would like to be at the Memorial Service if possible. Will it be at Temple Shalom?

Dear Marjorie and Michael,
I spoke with my cousin, Ethel Nanes, a few moments ago and we reminisced about our wonderful Medford/Temple Shalom community. Our families knew each other well. I was privileged to spend quite a bit of time in your home in the mid-50's and early 60's and came to know your mother as someone who always had a smile on her face and a twinkle in her eye. She made me feel so welcome and was always involved in the world around her.(I do remember seeing the NY Times in the living room and thinking "I don't know anyone else from Boston who reads a NY newspaper!")
Please accept my sincere condolences and heartfelt sympathy. May your Mom's memory be for a blessing.
I hope to speak with you soon.

MIchael and Marjorie--my mother, Evelyn Olans, who sadly died about twenty years ago, was one of Charlotte's closest friends. When Evelyn was too frail to go out, Charlotte would visit and they would regale each other with stories about Medford in the old days. Even though I lived through many of the stories, their version was so much more exciting than I remembered! Sometimes,when I was doing the grocery shopping for my mom I would run into Charlotte at the local Stop and Shop and would stop for coffee with her. She never stopped telling me how proud she was of you guys. She was one strong terrific lady, and was one of the reasons I most enjoyed my visits to Medford.

Dear Marjorie and Michael,
It is with sympathy and remembrance having been a neighbor on the same street in Medford and at the temple in the years I lived there that I send this to your family, those close to you and to you.
Your mother was a contemporary of my mother, and my mother was thrilled to see to see Charlotte on television or hear her mentioned after she moved from Medford in the late 1970s.
My mother passed six years ago, and it is never easy, no matter what age to lose the matriach.
With the challenges as a single mother, she carried forth with dignity and endurance.
Mr. Mayor, I always admired your interjections of your references to your mother while speaking that I heard many times.
If my sons represent me in the way you presented your mother, that will be my greatest achievement.
With condolences, Rosalie Isenberg Weener (daughter of Libby Shoreman).

No doubt your mother had an large impact in the lives of many during her lifespan.
