SOSSIN, Gloria Pearl - February 1, 1934 - December 1, 2019 - Gloria Sossin died suddenly and peacefully, on Sunday, December 1, 2019.

Gloria was born in 1934 in Toronto to Sam and Fay Dessau. A graduate of Vaughan Collegiate and the University of Toronto, Gloria was a beloved teacher for many years at the United Synagogue Day School (now the Robbins Hebrew Academy).
