Obituary

Glendora Greenzweig, 97, of Nazareth, passed away unexpectedly on Tuesday, October 1, 2019 in Lehigh Valley Hospital-Cedar Crest. She was the wife of the late Austin Greenzweig who died in 1993.

Born July 15, 1922 in Nazareth, she was a daughter of the late Fred Sr. and Blanche Heine Koch.

Glendora was a 1940 graduate of Nazareth High School. Earlier in life she worked as a beautician in Saylorsburg, but her true passion was found in spending time with her family and friends. Glendora made a loving home for her husband and son. She was very involved in her son's activities, including serving as leader for his Cub Scout and Boy Scout troops. "She was simply the best Mom in the world." She was a member of the Vigilance Hose Co. Ladies Auxiliary in Nazareth, and an officer with the LORA Club. In her spare time, Glendora enjoyed playing bingo and was a member of the Lower Nazareth Card Players, where she played pinochle for over 25 years.

She was a member of St. John's United Church of Christ in Nazareth.

Glendora is survived by her only child, Dennis Greenzweig and his wife Ann Maria of Bethlehem; one granddaughter, Amy Struphar and her husband Matthew of GA; and one great grandson, Colton. Glendora was predeceased by sisters, Betty Gheller and Dorothy Ordway; and brother, Fred Koch Jr.
