DAVIS _ Eva (nee Moscovitch, nee Taub) 1921 - 2008 Eva passed away on Shabbat, Saturday, August 2, 2008 at the Beverly Center Glenmore, at the age of 87. She died peacefully in her sleep, and is finally reunited with her family members that perished in the Holocaust. She was predeceased by her husband, Lou Davis (1997). Eva led an inspirational life of survival and hope, surviving the horrors of Auschwitz, where she lost her entire family. Her remarkable triumph and story of survival through singing and serving as a beacon of hope to her fellow detainees, in the most horrific of circumstances, defined her positive and tolerant nature, and led to a life of courage, giving, loving and enjoying the small joys of life. She rebuilt her life from the ashes, first in Romania (Oradea), next in Israel (Kibbutz Beit Oren), and subsequently in Calgary, where she remarried, and owned for many years a successful business, Eva's Skin Care. Following the premier of "Schindler's List" Eva spent a number of years giving talks to school children, and youth groups, where she inspired many and taught them the power of courage, tolerance and forgiveness. For her life example she was recognized with the Mountain of Heroes Award, and the Alberta Centennial Medal. Her life story and attitude has always been an inspiration for all that knew her. Eva is lovingly remembered and will be missed by her family; sons Dr. Adam Moscovitch (Debbie) and Robert Moskovitz, daughter Gail Sidorsky (Brian); and grandchildren Faye Steinberg (Joel), Ryan Sidorsky (Minelle), Laura Olschewski (Sam), Aaron, Estee, and Bayla Ambrose, her six great-grandchildren, and her many friends in Calgary, and throughout the world. The family would like to extend their appreciation to her many caregivers, especially Vesna, at the Beverly Nursing home, and Drs. Kim Wilmot and Elaine Harris. Funeral Services will be held Monday, August 4 at 2:00 p.m. at the Jewish Memorial Chapel (Chevra Kadisha) located at the northeast corner of Highway 22x and 37 Street S.W. Interment to follow at the Erlton Jewish Cemetery. Memorial (Shiva) Services will be held Monday to Thursday at the home of Robert Moskovitz at 7:30 p.m. at 12 Auburn Sound Crescent S.E.
