ALBERT E. 
MOEHLMAN, 
89, of Farmington 
Hills, died Jan. 29, 
2021. 
He was born on 
Nov. 21, 1931, to 
Harry and Dinah 
Moehlman. Gifted with a mind 
for numbers and order, he 
went into accounting and law, 
with a specialty in tax.
Albert met the love of his 
life, Ruth Donna Roth, in col-
lege. Soon thereafter, Al was 
drafted into the Navy in one 
of the few peacetime drafts 
in American history. Rather 
than wait for Albert to return 
from his service, the couple 
decided to marry immediate-
ly, putting together a formal 
wedding for 200 people in two 
weeks. They then went off to 
San Francisco to start their life 
together, which would include 
moving back to the Detroit 
Metro area, having four daugh-
ters, four grandchildren, one 
great-grandchild and finding 
pleasure in international travel 
once they were empty nesters. 
While Al’s main focus was 

his family, he also practiced tax 
law and loved tennis, both as a 
player and spectator. Together 
with Ruth, he was active in the 
Farmington Hills Historical 
Society and Commission for 
decades, serving as treasurer 
for almost the entire history of 
the organization. 
Albert was a man who loved 
to be in perpetual motion, 
walking as much as 10 miles 
a day. He was known for 
erupting in joyful dance at 
the sound of any music with 
rhythm. 
Mr. Moehlman is survived 
by his daughters and son-in-
law, Elizabeth Guss, Denise 
Moehlman, Laura and Dr. 
Mark Golden, and Theresa 
Moehlman; grandchildren, Lea 
(Jason) Onken, Ashley (James) 
Mills, Harrison Golden and 
Joseph Little; great-grandchil-
dren, Rayden Onken; brother 
and sister-in-law, Herman and 
Barbara Moehlman; many 
other loving family members 
and friends. 
He was the beloved husband 
of the late Ruth Donna Roth 
Moehlman. 
Interment took place at Beth 
El Memorial Park Cemetery 
in Livonia. Contributions can 
be made to a charity of one’s 
choice. Arrangements by 
Dorfman Chapel.

JONATHAN E. 
RAVEN, 70, of 
Okemos, passed 
away Jan. 26, 
2021, in Lansing. 
He was born 
Jan. 13, 1951, in Chicago, 
Ill., to Seymour and Norma 
(Blackman) Raven. 
Jonathan was a 1975 grad-
uate of the University of 
Michigan Law School and did 
his undergraduate studies at 
Western Michigan University.
