LEVY, LOIS G.: On Saturday, October 6, 2018. Born and raised in Pittsburgh, Lois was thrilled to call the city her home almost her entire life. Lois attended Carnegie Institute of Technology as a psychology major, and when not in school, she worked at her family's downtown business, American Wholesale. While attending college, she met the extraordinary love of her life, Dr. Marshall S. Levy, who was a senior in medical school at the University of Pittsburgh. After graduation, Lois and Marshall married, had three amazing children, Carol Levy (Joel Goron), Steven Levy and Louise Levy (Jay Shuster), and later she became a grandmother to eight wonderful grandchildren, Chloe, Camryn, Chace, identical twins, Cassidy and Carly - born in 2017, David, Bradley and Sammy. Sister of Charles Galtz. Sister-in-law of Dr. Stanley Levy. Lois always loved helping others and contributing to her community. Through her organizational work, Lois dedicated herself to exceptional causes including The Allegheny County Medical Society, Hadassah, United Jewish Federation, ORT, The Jewish National Fund, The Ladies' Hospital Aid Society, Brandesis University and many more. A true believer in the power of giving and doing, Lois enjoyed inspiring and helping others to learn, earn and celebrate life -- physically, intellectually and emotionally. Lois recently was awarded The Thompson Award from the Allegheny County Medical Society Alliance. She also won awards from the United Jewish Federation in various years for Volunteer of the Year for her service and devotion to the Jewish Community as well as Technion - The American Society for Technion for her dedication to the Jewish Community.
