He was the brother of the late Leonard Lopatin of Toronto, Ontario, and the late Charlotte (the late Gordon) Strosberg of West Bloomfield. In addition to his loving wife Dorothy, he will be sorely missed by his children Judy, Donna, and Jerry (MJ), his granddaughters, Rachel, Jennifer, and Anna, his brothers-in-law and sisters-in-law (Beverly and Tom Klimko, Bitsy and Rabbi Milton Simon, and Rene Lopatin), his nieces and nephews, and his dedicated caregivers over the past year. Metro Detroit’s Jewish funeral homes have agreed that families should follow the directive of Centers for Disease Control and restrict the size of gatherings to no more than 10, for at least the month of April.
