Obituary: Miriam Belger, 98
Miriam Belger, 98, of Alpharetta, a prolific and gifted educator, devoted wife and mother, inspirational grandmother to five, and great-grandmother to 10, died of pneumonia Monday, March 23, 2015.
She takes her leave of a family that will always feel united by her love and devotion to them: daughter Susan Belger Scheinfeld; son-in-law Morray; grandchildren Harris, Todd and Jennifer Barton, Ryan Scheinfeld, and Alene Scheinfeld Mosher; 10 great-grandchildren spread out in Atlanta, Gautier, Miss., and Palo Alto, Calif.; and a sister, Pearl Cohen. She was preceded in death by her parents; her husband, Morris Belger; a sister, Bella Vogel; a brother, David Sepersky; and a daughter, Joan Belger Barton. To know Miriam was to be inspired by her — to always go with your right foot forward. Despite her innate modesty, there are few who can claim as lasting a legacy or as deep an influence on so many others; may her life and accomplishments always be celebrated.
