MARTIN L.

ABEL, 100, of Keego Harbor, passed away peacefully on Nov. 23, 2020.

Martin was proud of his service in the Army during World War II, serving in the European theater of operations. He climbed the cliffs of Normandy during the invasion.

He owned several successful manufacturing companies with locations all over the world. These companies manufactured products developed by him. Martin had more than 100 patents to his name.

Martin was a founder of The Shul in West Bloomfield and spent his later years working on numerous projects there. He designed and built the menorah which adorns the entranceway, the bimah, Eternal Light, the ark and the mechitzah. He always said whatever he built had to last 100 years.

Mr. Abel was the beloved husband of the late Phyllis; devoted father of Michelle (Jay) Horowitz, Arlene (Bob) Cook, Bruce (Lori) Abel, and Julie (late Dan) Grippo; loving grandfather of Jordan (Ines) Horowitz, Stefanie Horowitz, Jason Cook, Amy and Brian Abel, Sam and Bec Grippo; proud great-grandfather of Maddox Cheesman and Oliver Horowitz.

The family extends a very heartfelt thanks to his friend Joey Roberts, who was by his side daily, bringing a deli sandwich or seven-layer cake, which always made him smile.

Interment was at Hebrew Memorial Park. Contributions may be made to The Shul, 6890 W. Maple Road, West Bloomfield, MI 48322.

son. Music was a lifelong passion. The Bach Cantatas and Verdi’s Requiem Mass for Manzoni were some of his favorites, but he also loved opera. He memorized and sang many songs by Gilbert and Sullivan and Tom Lehrer. Bob was a prolific whistler and loved to play the flute and the recorder. Photography was also a passion. Hundreds of albums contain photos of the family, mostly taken by him. And, of course he loved to travel because that was one of the best ways to further nourish his insatiable curiosity.

For a man of so much intellect, he also had a heart of gold and that is the quality for which he was most cherished. Each member of his family of 24 expressed that they felt unconditionally loved and supported by him and that Bob was always kind, grateful and humble. When you were with him, he was approachable, engaged and fully focused. One granddaughter recalls that her grandfather had “an infinite capacity to be interested in other people, and even with 11 other grandchildren, each always felt special.” A grandson said that because his grandfather “really lived the values of humbleness, sense of humor, work ethic and devotion to family, we owe him a huge debt for setting us on the right path.” His daughter recalls that she never heard an unkind word from her father. “I don’t think he was holding back unkind words; I just don’t think he thought them.”

Even though Bob knew he might succumb to COVID, he remained optimistic and told his children he had “lived a very good life.” He embraced life to its fullest and was grateful for all the opportunities and good fortune it had afforded him. He had a bright attitude and an infectious smile that illuminated so many lives. Bob lived his life according to the words of Rabbi Hillel, “If I am not for myself, who will be for me? If I am only for myself, what am I? And if not now, when?”

Dr. Jampel is survived by his wife of 68 years, Joan Meyers Jampel; four children, Dr. Henry (Dr. Risa) Jampel, Dr. Delia (John Frank) Jampel, James (Dr. Sandra Marwill) Jampel, Emily (Ted) Sherman; grandchildren, Catherine (Even Henritze) Jampel, Joseph (Dr. Mika Schwartz) Jampel, Sarah (Adam Janofsky) Jampel, Carla Frank, Elliot Frank, Mariel Frank, Sonya Jampel, Jacob Jampel, Serena Jampel, Tom Sherman, A.J.
