Nina E. Liss was born in Newark, N.J. on March 31, 1930 to the late Evelyn Zorn Liss and Dr. Isadore G. Liss. She graduated from South Side High School in Newark and earned a Bachelor of Arts degree from Rutgers University, N.J. with election to Phi Beta Kappa.

A versatile educator and administrator, she taught for 12 years and was an elementary vice principal for 20 years in Newark, N.J. She was also a counselor at Camp Lenore in Hinsdale, MA.

Nina spent many summers and holidays on Cape Cod and retired there in Brewster in 1983. She was a volunteer for 20 years at the Orleans Convalescent and Retirement Center. Since she was an accomplished pianist it was only natural that she entertain at O.C.R.C. for every holiday, on special occasions, and at a weekly exercise program.

Nina is survived by several cousins.

In addition to her parents, she was predeceased by her sister, Lila B. Liss; and her long time friend, June E. Brickman.
