Marilyn Betty

Schiff

Marilyn Betty (Kleinman) Schiff died peacefully on November 13, 2026, at the age of 96. She was special. Literally, no one ever said a bad word about her. Beloved by all her family and friends because she cared deeply about everyone.

Throughout her life, she lived in multiple places: West Philly, North Philly, Northeast Philly, then Atlantic City, and finally in Cherry Hill and Voorhees, NJ. She worked at Garry-Elliot salon for many years and opened the successful ‘Marilyn’s Boutique,’ where she sold jewelry, clothes, and many other items.

Marilyn is survived by her children, Melanie (Steve) Fruman, Brian Schiff, Susan Kardon; grandchildren, Justin (Rachel) Fruman, Brenda (Joe) Crouse, Jonny (Katie) Fruman, Juliet Schiff; great-grandchildren, Brandon and Ryan Fruman, Penny and Joey Crouse; and her sister, Rhoda Grossman. And in blessed memory are her husband, the late Myron (Sonny) Schiff, and her parents, Fay and Nat Kleinman. Donations can be made to St. Jude Children's Hospital.
