Deceased
Name: ANNA AVERBOOK LIVED TO 105 Anna Averbook
lived to be 105 and was playing the piano as late as her 104th birthday. She died of
natural causes Tuesday at the Miami Jewish Home and Hospital for the Aged at
Douglas Gardens, where she had lived for 14 years. Previously, she had lived
on Lincoln Road in Miami Beach. "She was
a very loving person," said David Averbook, her son. "She was
really a reformer, too. She loved to help people." He described
his mother as a health-food fanatic and devoted wife who worked with her late
husband, Joseph, at his department store in Austin, Minn., and his
gold-mining business in Los Angeles. Averbook came
to New York City from Russia when she was 5. Her parents later returned to
Russia, and she was reared by her grandparents. Averbook also
is survived by a daughter, Anita Ravage; three grandchildren and 14
great-grandchildren. A graveside
service will be held 2:30 p.m. Thursday at the Mt. Nebo Memorial Gardens,
5505 NW Third St. In lieu of
flowers, the family requests donations be sent to the Micha Society for Deaf
Children, Sherman House, 23 Reading St., Tel Aviv, Israel, 69024. Miami
