Yelena A. Gurfinkel Obituary

We are sad to announce that, on November 13, 2025 we had to say goodbye to Yelena A. Gurfinkel (Rochester, Minnesota). Leave a sympathy message to the family in the guestbook on this memorial page of Yelena A. Gurfinkel to show support.

In the soft embrace of remembrance, we recall the profound impact Yelena had on those she encountered along her journey. Though Yelena may have slipped beyond the veil of mortality, her essence lingers like a faint fragrance in the air, a lingering reminder of the beauty and complexity of the human experience.

She is survived by: her son Alexander (Lindsay Howell); her grandsons, Peter and George; and her sister Vera.

Please consider a donation to your local food shelf in Yelena's memory.
