From MARCIA WEINSTEIN Obituary (1931 - 2016) - Newark, NY - The Star-Ledger:

Marcia A. Weinstein

Dearest wife and mother, special ed teacher and active member of South Orange temple, 84 Marcia Adria Weinstein (nee Weiner), 84, passed away peacefully at home surrounded by her daughters, on Jan. 22, 2016, after a year-long clash with cancer. She was the beloved wife of David for 32 years until his death in 1986, loving mother to Miriam of Warwick, R.I., and Judith (Dr. Mathew MacCumber) of Chicago, and devoted grandmother to Abigail, David, and Ethan. Born in the Bronx to the late Martin and Estelle Weiner, she graduated from Hunter College in 1952 with a degree in economics. Upon her marriage in 1954, she joined her husband whose career as a research scientist took them to Maryland, North Carolina, Pennsylvania and finally New Jersey, all the while pursuing her own career as an elementary school teacher. She later became a special education teacher, remaining in touch with several of her students right up to her death. She was an energetic member of Temple Sharey Tefilo-Israel, South Orange, where she operated the Gift Shop for several years. She was a dynamic participant in the Renaissance Group, Women's Connection, and many committees. Her independence and full-on joie de vivre was inspiring to women and men across generations. She was one of the founding members of the environmental action group Roseland Against Compressor Station. A life-long Democrat, she was an active participant in politics and social action. She also leaves a sister, Molla Tiffen, nieces and nephews, and many dear friends, including those she has known since childhood. The funeral service will be held on Tuesday, Jan. 26, at 10:30 a.m. at Temple Sharey Tefilo-Israel. Burial will be private. Donations may be made in her memory to Barnabas Hospice and Palliative Care, to which the family is grateful for their exceptional care and support, to her beloved Temple Sharey Tefilo-Israel, or to a charity supporting justice, human rights, or the environment, all causes that she passionately supported.
