Submitted by the family

Helen Moskowitz, age 93, of Miami and formerly of Orlando, passed away on Tuesday, Oct. 16, 2018. She was born on March 4, 1925, in Bronx, New York, to William and Kate Schoenberg.

Her husband of 54 years, Arthur, predeceased her in 2006. Her brother, Julian Schoenberg, passed away in 1993.

Helen was a retired L.P.N .; member of Congregation Ohev Shalom; Life Member of Hadassah; member of Chevrah Kadisha of Central Florida. She was also a member of the Bikur Cholim Committee of Ohev visiting patients in hospitals and nursing homes.

She had a regular group of friends who exercised bi-weekly. She was an avid reader, loved hearing a good joke and relished retelling it. She was a remarkable woman and the universe will be a little dimmer without her.

She is survived by her son, Dr. William Moskowitz (Gail) of Richmond, Va., and her daughter, Marge Prenner of Miami. She is also survived by five grandchildren—Rabbi Michael Moskowitz (Naomi), Holly, Andrea (Guy) Katz, Juliana and Dr Stuart Prenner (Stacey); and six great grandchildren—Chloe, Nachi, Eyal, Tal, Gilad and Eliana.
