EVA GUREVICH Eva Gurevich passed away in her 95th year. She is survived by her brother Jack and his wife Bess and was predeceased by her sister Ann Rosenthal. Her memory is cherished by her nieces and nephews, their children and their childrens children. To all she was "Aunty" or "Aunty Aunty" as her great-great-niece Rachel fondly called her.
