<<< Return to Memory Wall

Sherry (Kershnar) Jacobson, born February 12, 1941, passed away May 6, 2020 after a long illness. Born in Brooklyn, NY, and having resided in Livingston, NJ and Nanuet, NY, she retired and lived the past 21 years in the Saddlebrooke Community in Tucson, AZ. She was graduated from the Baruch School of City College and then worked as an accountant at Apfel & Englander. After her kids were in school, she managed the U.S. office of Fildan Accessories, while also working summers at Camps Wahconah-Potomac and Pontiac. Throughout her life, she enjoyed eating chocolate, baking, crocheting, rooting for the NY Rangers and NY Mets, seeing Broadway shows, as well as attending Harry Belafonte and Johnny Mathis concerts. In her retirement, she spent time walking with friends, playing tennis, square dancing, playing bridge and attending hors d’oeuvres parties. But most of all she adored spending time with her family and friends. She was a loving wife to her husband Jake, a wonderful mom to her children (Alyse, Pam, Steven, Lara, and Mark) as well as a doting MeMa to her grandsons (Max and Ben). She was predeceased by her parents Morton and Sally Kershnar and her sister-in-law Sue Kershnar. She is survived by her husband Louis Martin aka Jake Jacobson; her children Alyse (Mark), Pam, Steven (Lara); her grandsons Max and Ben; as well as her siblings Mel, Rivka, Harris (Tessa).

Dear Mr. Jacobson,
I am so sorry for your loss. I didn't know your wife but I know your daughter, Pam. I can only imagine how wonderful your wife was as I know how incredibly kind and thoughtful your daughter is! From what I have read about your wife, I know we would have enjoyed each other. My birthday is Feb, 13 and I was born in 1961. We February babies are VERY special!!! 🙂 Plus, I was an avid duplicate bridge player, love to knit and crochet and chocolate is a DEFINITE "go to"! I pray that you are surrounded not only with the love and cherished memories of your wife but the continued love of honor of your children for years to come,
Blessings,
Victoria

I send my deepest condolences to all of the Jacobson family. Pam has been my closest co worker at USB as the Chief Administrative Officer of Corporate and Commercial Banking. She is an excellent reflection of both of her parents. I know all of you through the many pictures that decorate Pam's office and through her many stories of wonderful family moments.
In time, I hope memory of Mrs. Jacobson's final heartbreaking illness will be replaced with all the beautiful memories of her life.
You all have my deepest sympathies, Leslie Godridge
