In memory of

Tamara Penn

September 21, 1942 -  January 23, 2020

It is with great sorrow that we announce the passing of Tamara Penn who passed away peacefully at Bridgepoint Hospital on January 23, 2020 after her courageous battle. Tamara was always ahead of her time and sadly, her passing has come ahead of its time, too.

Daughter of the late Leibl and Shura Feldman (South Africa). Devoted and loving mother and mother-in-law to Ryan Penn & Jennifer Cohen (Canada) and Lisa & Edward Solomon (UK). Loving little sister to Minnie Schamroth and Michael Feldman (UK). Cherished Gram“T” to Jeremy, Aviva, Joey and Danielle and many other little people. She will be sadly missed by her nieces, nephews and their families in the UK and her multitude of family and friends around the world. Special thanks to Drs. Myers, Meuser and Melnitzer and their teams; her wonderful caregivers and the caregivers at Bridgepoint; the volunteers who came to spend time doing art, paperwork and more; and the outstanding staff at Sunnybrook and Bridgepoint Hospitals who went above and beyond every day.

No words can express our feelings and thoughts at a time so unbearably painful.
Tamara was a friend to my sister and always was concerned about her well being.
A caring person.

I am deeply saddened to hear the news of Tamara's passing. She was a loving Light in this world and always kept the Light on for anyone who crossed her path. She was a powerhouse, a deep mystic, a shaman, a wise elder, a healer and through her, I learned so much. I am filled with deep joy at her memory and sadness that she will no longer be amongst us. But I know she is with us - a new star in the sky - her Light beaming beaming beaming, never to be extinguished.

I've known Tamara (the baby sister of my friend Minnie, with whom I have been inseparable friends since Nursery School. Twenty three years ago my husband Eric, my mother, Phillis and I emigrated to Toronto. Tamara welcomed us, and extended her loving hospitality and she and I have been inseparable friends ever since. Our children all adored her.
Tamara was a light to many, cared for and counseled innumerable people in need of spiritual care. I am so grateful she was in my life.
Her loving friend, Robyn Lewis
