Obituary of Marcia Spector

Marcia Elaine Spector, 90, of New Providence, NJ passed away peacefully at home with family by her side on June 12, 2022. Marcia was born in Newark, NJ on October 23, 1931, to Nathan and Rose Schwartz Kolba, and was a resident of Short Hills, NJ, and La Jolla, CA. She graduated from Hillside High School in 1949, and later attended Syracuse University and New York University.

Marcia was married twice. First to Lionel Ehrenworth, with whom she lived in the Bronx, Springfield, NJ, and Short Hills, NJ. Second, to Norman Spector, with whom she lived first in Short Hills and later in La Jolla, CA.

Marcia was a quick wit, a keen student of human behavior, and possessed a phenomenal eye for design. Her clothes and her homes—be they in NJ or CA—were always delights to the eye, though heaven help anyone who neglected to wipe their feet before entering or dared to wear argyle with plaid.

Nothing though gave Marcia more pleasure than spending time with her family. She cherished time spent with her sons and grandsons, as well as her nieces and their children, and her family of stepchildren and step-grandchildren.

Marcia is survived by her four sons, Douglas Ehrenworth, Robert Ehrenworth and his wife Yong, Andrew Ehrenworth, Richard Ehrenworth and his wife Kate, and grandchildren Jackson and Matthew, as well as by her sister Susan Korenstein and brother-in-law Howard Korenstein, and their children Deborah Korenstein and Hope Korenstein.

A graveside service will be held on Thursday, July 7, 2022, at 11:00 a.m., at B'Nai Abraham Cemetery located in Union, NJ.
