The members and alumni of the Colorado Hebrew Chorale’s two choirs mourn the loss of our beloved soprano, Estelle Nadel, who passed away on Tuesday, 11/28/23 due to complications from heart surgery. Estelle began singing with the Chorale in 2005, and continued until two weeks ago. Her experiences as a hidden child in Poland during the second World War are chronicled in her graphic novel, “The Girl Who Sang”.
Services are scheduled for Friday morning, Dec. 1, 2023, 10 a.m. at Mountain View Memorial Park, 3393 Penrose Place, Boulder CO 80301.
May Estelle’s family be comforted together with the mourners of Zion and Jerusalem, and may her legacy endure.
