Mila Feldbrill born in Częstochowa, Poland passed away peacefully on August 14, 2019 at the age of 94.
She is survived by her two sons Leon and Bill, daughter-in-law Michelle, granddaughters Elexis and Ashley.
She was a beloved wife to Mendel Feldbrill, who passed away 2 years ago. They were inseparable for their 72 years of marriage.
Mila was a Holocaust survivor and was liberated from a work labor camp in Poland January 1945.
In Germany after the war, Mila and Mendel started a candy business in order to make enough money to allow them to move to Israel with their son Leon in 1948. When they immigrated to the newly formed State of Israel, their 4 years there were difficult as the state was establishing. They cherished the freedom of living as Jews in Israel. In 1952 relatives made arrangements for the 3 of them to relocate to Canada. In 1956 Mila's brother made arrangements for them to relocate to San Francisco. In 1957 she gave birth to her second son Bill.
Mila's passions included her beautiful garden, cooking and most importantly family.
The family is deeply grateful to Mimi who for the past year has been Mom's, loving friend, kind companion and caregiver.
A memorial Service was held on August 20, 2019 at Hills of Eternity Memorial Park.
In lieu of flowers the family requests donations to Peninsula Temple Sholom Holocaust & Projects Fund.
