MIRIAM “MIRI” 
BARR, 84, of 
Bloomfield 
Township, died 
on June 9, 2021. 
Miri, as fam-
ily and friends 
called her, passed 
away after a pro-
longed illness. 
She survived the 
Holocaust, as a 
5-year-old orphan, a miracle 
given that she escaped Belzec 
death camp. After living with 
partisans in the Black Forest, 
she was liberated and then 
immigrated to Israel. 
She was a proud R.N. and 
nursing instructor. Despite 
everything and against all 
odds, Miri survived to have a 
wonderful family, which was 
the center of her life. She 
will miss her great-grandson 
Noah Bigelman’s bar mitz-
vah and many other family 
events that kept her family 
so close together. Miri also 
loved art, classical music, 

fabrics and antique collec-
tions. 
Mrs. Barr was married 
to Isaac Barr, M.D.; they 
raised four children, Michal 
Firsht, Eliav Barr, Merav 
Grindlinger and Tamar 
Hermon, nine grandchildren 
and four great-grandchil-
dren. 
Miri was interred in Israel 
at Menuhat Olam cemetery 
in Netanya in the presence of 
the Barr family and friends. 
A memorial service was held 
at Temple Israel with Rabbi 
Paul Yedwab and Rabbi 
Joseph Krakoff officiating.

ROSE BOHM, 92, 
of West 
Bloomfield, died 
July 8, 2021. 
She passed away 
surrounded by her 
loving children 
and grandchil-
dren. She leaves 
many legacies, 
but her greatest 
accomplishment is the incred-
ible family she built and life 
lessons she instilled in all of 
them.
In addition to her three 
children and son-in-law, 
Rose had eight grandchil-
dren who adored her, and 
17 great-grandchildren that 
were the lights of her life. 
She had a very special and 
unique relationship with 
each one. Rose also had two 
great-great-grandchildren, 
whom she loved very much. 
Rose was happiest when she 
was surrounded by all the 
kids. 
In addition to her family 
legacy, Rose also recorded and 
published a diary, Remember 
Never to Forget, about her 
experience in the Holocaust. 
As a survivor, she made her 
family promise never to forget
