Doris Ruth Levenson Obituary

Doris Levenson, beloved and loving “Mommy”, Grandmother and Great-Grandmother passed away peacefully on December 7 after a short and valiant battle with Covid19. Doris was well travelled, courageous and creative with an incredible sense of style. She persevered in all of her undertakings with a sense of determination that was admired by all. A depression era child with humble beginnings, Doris raised four children, all successful in their own right, and each possessing her contagious love of life. As a caregiver to her husband Phil, who predeceased her, she was incomparable.
“I believe in rainbows…everyone has a rainbow; you have to feel it because it really is a state of mind. Sometimes it eludes you; sometimes it is hidden behind a dark cloud and sometimes it is glorious in color and meaning.”
Doris wrote this as a prelude to the beginnings of her memoir. She felt the rainbows, they never eluded her, she found them and she lived them. She saw and felt the vibrant colors and made them part of her life.
Her funeral services will be held on January 3, 2022 at 12 Noon at the Rubin Memorial Chapel, 7340 West Boynton Beach Blvd, Boynton Beach, Florida with burial alongside her cherished Phil, at the South Florida National Cemetery in Lake Worth.
Shiva will be observed at the home of her loving daughter, Rhona Levenson, at 2600 Fiore Way, Apt 115 in Delray Beach immediately following the funeral.
