Betty R. Kleiman

BETTY R. KLEIMAN (nee Betty Lee Rosenblatt) died at the age of 95 in Dallas, Texas, where she had resided for the past 17 years. She was the beloved and devoted wife of the late Edward Kleiman and loving mother of Ann Schiller (Dr. Larry), Dr. Jeff Kleiman (Cindy), and the late Harry R. Kleiman. She was the adoring grandmother of Rachel (Dr. Ari), David (Fay), Cheryl (Blake), and Michael (Karli), and great grandmother of Sasha, Aaron, and Penelope. Betty was a proud graduate of West Philadelphia High School and Temple University, where she earned her degree in Business Education. Betty taught Sunday school at Melrose B’nai Israel for over 25 years. She also worked at the family automotive paint company, A. Kleiman, Inc. Betty was a beautiful woman and was always impeccably dressed. She was our very own Betty Boop. Betty loved to travel and moved to Texas to be closer to her family. We’ll miss her so much!

Services and shiva were held in Philadelphia, PA. Contributions in her memory may be made to Jewish National Fund (www.jnf.org) or MANNA (Metropolitan Area Neighborhood Nutrition Alliance – www.mannapa.org), which Betty supported when her son Harry passed away. Betty wanted to feed people in need.
