grate to the Detroit area — 40 
lives, 40 worlds, 40 opportuni-
ties.
Many of those people went 
on to have children and even 
grandchildren. Our rabbi, when 
sharing my grandfather’s story 
at his funeral, called him a 
“modern-day Moses.
” 
In a way, he was. And he was 
our hero.
Mark Nisnevich is survived 
by his beloved wife of 57 years, 
Asya. He was the devoted father 
of Alla (Gregory) Zlatopolsky 
and Stella (Howard) Gitler; 
adoring grandfather of Ashley 
(fiancé Joseph Kudlacik) 
Zlatopolsky, Brianna 
Zlatopolsky, Branden Gitler, 
Gabriella Gitler and Alexis 
Gitler; cherished brother of 
Eduard (Liliya) Nisnevich, Ada 
(the late Vilgimir) Neverovich 
and the late Maya (the late 
Matvey) Shub. He was also sur-
vived by loving caregiver, Oleg 
Loza, and many loving nieces 
and nephews.
Interment was at Adat 
Shalom Memorial Park. 
Contributions in his memory

Stroke Foundation, 208 S.
