<div itemprop="description">We sadly announce the death of Paula Weinfield, who passed away on April 25, 2025. Born on Oct. 31, 1931, Paula was the beloved wife of Mortimer Weinfield (d. 1987) and the beloved stepmother of Henry Weinfield. She also leaves behind Henry's wife Joyce, who was devoted to her, their three children, Paul, Saralena, and Vera. In addition, she is survived by her stepson, Tony, his wife, Barbara, and their three children, Elizabeth, Catherine, and Madeline. <br> <br>Paula was born in southwestern France, in the area of Pau. She was shaped by the war years and by the hardships her family experienced during the Nazi occupation. In the early 1960s she emigrated to Montreal, where she met and married her husband Mortimer. <br> <br>Before her marriage, Paula worked as a model and in women's fashion. She loved beautiful things--well-made clothes, objets d'art, fine paintings, music, good food. She was always beautifully dressed and was a marvelous cook. <br> <br>Paula and her husband Mortimer lived for many years at the 4300 apartment complex in Westmount. She had many friends there and loved going for walks in Westmount Park or on the mountain. <br> <br>In her final years, Paula lived at the Résidence Sainte Anne de Bellevue. We are grateful to the nurses and staff there for the wonderful care she received, and to Elisabeth Hamel, her private attendant, who formed a real friendship with Paula and, through her kindness and consideration, brought light into her life. <br></div>
