Robert (Bob) Mazer

Robert (Bob) Mazer, age 95, died peacefully at his home on October 30, 2024. Bob was born and raised in Philadelphia and was the son of the late Albert and Sally Mazer, and brother of the late Mort Mazer (Connie) and the late Lynne Levin. He graduated from the 188th class of Central High and was a proud Penn State alum and veteran of the Korean war. He began his real estate career in the 60s and was a fixture in the Mt. Airy real estate market for over 60 years. 

Family was everything to Bob and he was never happier than when he and Edy were surrounded by their children, grandchildren and great-grandchildren. He loved to bring everyone together for family vacations and special occasions. He and Edy had 64 amazing years together, traveling all over the world in their prime and watching Jeopardy in their golden years. He stayed active as a pilot, sailor, scuba diver, racquetball player, and gym rat throughout his life. He loved his summers in Ventnor and winters in Florida, as long as he was near a beach with a sailboat. Wherever he went, he knew everyone and was greeted warmly. 

He is survived by his wife Edy (nee Marcus), children Norman Mazer (Marion), Robin Mazer, Michael Posner (Colleen), Sharon Kramer (Marc), Karen Mazer, and Diane Mazer. He was Pop Pop Bob to grandchildren Jonathan (Loren), Scott (Stephanie), Angela (Ryan), Laila, Adina (Rita), Michael, Jesse (Sam), Kimberly (Patrick), and Leah and great-grandchildren Daniel, Elias, Toby, Stella, George, Sekoya, Philip, and Kairi. Brother in law of Connie Mazer.

A memorial service will be held on Sunday, November 17th at 3:30PM at Goldstein’s Rosenbergs’ Funeral Directors in Southampton to celebrate his life, followed by shiva at his late residence. In lieu of flowers, contributions in his memory may be made to Old York Road Temple Beth Am or Philabundance.
