Arthur Horwitz
President
72, of Scottsdale,
Ariz., died May 18,
2014.
She was born May
7, 1942, to "Smiling"
Sammy and Ann Woolf
of Detroit. Bunny was
Nickamin
the youngest of three.
Throughout her life, Bunny touched
many people with her kindness, integrity,
beautiful smile and positive attitude. She
had a love and talent for modern dance,
which found expression with the Festival
Dancers of the Jewish Community Center.
As a beautician for 50 years, she
offered quick-witted humor and
therapy to thousands who sat in her
chair. When she wasn't cutting hair, she
enjoyed endless hikes in nature, her
place of solace and connection. Love is
the legacy that Bunny leaves behind;
there was nothing more important to
her than her family and friends.
Mrs. Nickamin is survived by her
sister Margo "Sissy" Cohen-Feinberg;
brother, Roy, and sister-in-law, Jackie
Woolf; children, David, Angie, Aaron,
Adam, Anne and Andy; grandchildren,
Emma Rose, Simon, Grahm, Hayden, Eli,
Bella and Milo.
She was the wife of the late Alan
Nickamin; mother of the late Leah
Nickamin.
In May, following her courageous
battle with leukemia, there was a memo-
rial service in Scottsdale, where she lived
for 30 years. In July there will be two
gatherings in Charlevoix, a place Bunny
loved so very much: meet and greet, July
12 from 4-8 p.m. at 205 E. Dixon; on July
19, a ceremony will offer her ashes into
Lake Michigan. Gather 4 p.m. at the stairs
at the west end of Dixon, just north of the
Charlevoix bridge. Contributions may be
sent to the Sierra Club or the Bear Hug
Foundation (Camp Tanuga). Contact
Angie (nickamin22@gmail.com ) for infor-
mation about the Michigan events.
