SOUL

OF BLESSED MEMORY

MARTIN 
BADER, 98, 
passed away 
peacefully at 
home on Pine 
Lake on Nov. 2, 
2020. 
Martin was born on June 
22, 1922, in Detroit. He was 
the second child of Abraham 
and Sarah (Davidson) Bader. 
Martin received his B.S. 
degree from Wayne State 
University and his master’
s 
in engineering from the 
University of Chicago. He 
enlisted in the U.S. Army Air 
Corps Weather Service and 
served his country proudly 
for three and a half years, 
until his discharge as a cap-
tain. 
He met Irene Sucher as 
a teenager, and she knew 
they were destined for one 
another. Martin and Irene 
were married in 1944 and 
raised their children, Jill and 
Chuck, in Detroit. Martin 
grew the Abe Bader Bag 
Company into the interna-
tional business that became 
Packaging Concepts & 
Design. The couple enjoyed 
63 years of wedded bliss; 
Irene passed in 2007. 
Martin was blessed to 
find love a second time with 
Charlotte Rosenbaum, who 
became his dear companion 
for the last 11 years of his 
life. 
His happiest times were 
surrounded by friends and 
family at Pine Lake or on 
Longboat Key in Florida, 
fishing, golfing and enjoying 
a good meal. He inspired his 
children to be engaged citi-
zens and active participants 
in life, to enjoy simple plea-
sures and to appreciate each 
other for who they were.

Mr. Bader was preceded 
in death by his beloved wife, 
Irene; his sister, Muriel Bader 
Oppenheim; his brother, 
Nathan Bader; his parents, 
Abraham and Sarah Bader.
He is survived by his chil-
dren, Jill Bader and Charles 
Bader (Lois Safdie); his 
grandchildren, Abraham 
McClurg (Ashlyn), Liliana 
Greenberg, and Katharine 
Anderson (David); his 
great-grandchildren, Daliah 
and Lucas; his compan-

countless other family and 
friends that made his life 
wonderful for many, many 
years.
