Liza Mordoh Obituary (1933 - 2014)

Liza Mordoh, beloved sister, wife, mother, grandmother and great grandmother, passed away in her sleep on the evening of April 26, 2014. Liza, orphaned at a young age, barely escaped the fate of most other Jews in her native Greece during WWII. After the war, she met and married the man with whom she would spend the rest of her life. With their daughter in tow the couple immigrated to the US and, once settled in Columbus, Ohio, they also had a son. Liza was an incredibly generous and hardworking member of the community. She and her husband owned Davies Bakery on the East side and Liza’s Pastries at Lane Avenue Shopping Center. Known for her amazing cooking and beautiful presentation, Mrs. Mordoh also organized several local events. Liza was beautiful, classy and full of spunk. She will be dearly missed. She was preceded in death by her husband, Strougo Mordoh and is survived by children Solita Rosado (Doug), David Mordoh (Teresa); grandchildren Alisa Swissa (Yair), Michael Mordoh and George Mordoh and great-grandchild Strougo Swissa.
