Masliah & Soloway Loses a Member of Our Family

Henri Masliah, the father of Noemi Masliah, passed away suddenly yesterday in Manhattan. Born in France, he survived the Second World War with his wife, Bella, though other members of their family were killed.  Henri and Bella moved to Cuba where they lived until the revolution. They moved again, this time to Lima until finally immigrating to the United States.  Noemi and her sister who were born in Cuba, were raised in New York as the family pursued the American Dream. A tireless and successful businessman who continued to work (including yesterday) despite being in his 80s, Henri was a caring and generous person who was always kind and supportive to acquaintances and loved ones, alike.  He will be deeply missed by all those who were fortunate to know him. Our condolences to his family, including his two grandchildren, his daughters and son-in-law, his wife and his legions of friends. A funeral will be held at Riverside Chapel at 76th and Amsterdam on Thursday January 21 at 2:30 p.m.
