Susan Jane Pevzner
September 8, 1949 — August 13, 2016
Susan Jane Pevzner, 66, of Haley Road in Great Barrington passed away peacefully at home surrounded by her children on Saturday August 13, 2016.
Born September 8, 1949 in Brooklyn, New York she was the daughter of Marilyn Mamroth Glucksman and the late Henry Glucksman. At the age of 13 Sue moved with her family to Stockbridge where she graduated from the former Williams High School in 1967.
Susan married the love of her life, the late David R. Pevzner, on February 4, 1970. Dave and Sue were singularly devoted to one another. In addition to raising 4 children, they worked side by side at “Jack’s Country Squire”, their clothing store on Main Street that opened in 1970. Following the death of her husband in 2007, Sue continued to operate the family business.
First and foremost, Sue’s life revolved around her family. She was a devoted wife, mother, grandmother, daughter and sister. She loved to cook, play scrabble, was an avid golfer and enjoyed ballroom dancing. She was a member of the Berkshire Chapter of USA Dance and a past member of Wyantenuck Country Club. Sue will be remembered for her exceptionally kind, gracious and generous spirit. Her calming presence will be deeply missed by her family, friends and to many in the downtown community of which she was an integral member for so many years. She personified both a gentle strength and strong character.
Along with her mother Marilyn Glucksman of Venice, FL she is survived by her four children, Daniel Pevzner of Ukiah, CA, Lisa Pevzner and Matthew Pevzner both of Great Barrington, MA and Amy Pevzner of Walnut Creek, CA. She also leaves her brother William Glucksman of Sunderland, MA and two granddaughters, Elizabeth and Victoria Pevzner.
She was predeceased by her husband of 37 years, David, on February 13, 2007.
The funeral will be held on Tuesday August 16, 2016 at twelve o’clock at Finnerty & Stevens Funeral Home in Great Barrington, conducted by Rabbi Jodie Gordon. Burial will follow at Ahavath Sholom Cemetery in Great Barrington.
