She was an example to all who knew her – of elegance, style, and intelligence. A role model, she attended Barnard College and Columbia Law School ( LLB, ‘58) during an era when few women pursued law degrees. A steadfast advocate for women’s rights, she was active in local politics, the Board of Education, and the League of Women Voters. While she maintained a full career as a practicing trial attorney, family remained her priority. She raised four daughters, hosted warm holiday gatherings and maintained a beautiful home filled with family photographs including her eight grandchildren. She was predeceased by her husband Jules Lazar. She will always be remembered and loved by her daughters Sabrina, Dana, Pamela, and Cara, her stepson Ben, sons-in-law Marc, Paul, Mike and Jonathan, and grandchildren Rebecca, Ruth, William, Sarah, Hannah, Isabela, Julian, and Anya.
