Caplan, Michele J.: It is with great sadness that the Caplan family announces that Michele J. Caplan passed away on September 5, 2018 at the age of 65. Michele was a native of Greenfield but built her life and family with her late husband Jeffrey Paul Caplan in Churchill PA. A graduate of Duffs Business School and one time employee of General Electric and CVS Pharmacy, Michele’s favorite job and one that she was most proud of was that of being mother to her two children Heather Faith Ewing (P.K.) and Adam Ross Caplan. Michele’s warmth and involvement in synagogue activities and with the Hadassah Women’s Zionist Organization brought her close to her community and friends. A cancer fighter and survivor for 23 years, her tenacity inspired everyone she met. She passed peacefully surrounded by her children and family. In addition to her children she is survived by her fiancé Eric Haverstock and cousin Fred Orlansky. Services at Ralph Schugar Chapel, Inc., 5509 Centre Avenue, Shadyside on Sunday at 11 AM. Visitation one hour prior to services (10 - 11 AM). Interment Shaare Torah Cemetery. Contributions may be made to Parkway Jewish Center, 300 Princeton Drive, Pittsburgh, PA 15235 or American Cancer Society, 320 Bilmar Drive, Pittsburgh, PA 15205. www.schugar.com
