Malcolm Cecil Berman

Malcolm Berman, of Delray Beach, Florida, passed away on Sunday, September 7th, 2025, at the age of 89. He is survived by his beloved wife, Sandra R. Berman (nee Fulton); loving children, Steven (Heidi) Berman, Gary (Marilyn) Berman, and Richard (Jennifer) Berman; cherished grandchildren, Jason Berman, Erin Berman Welsh (James Welsh), Michael (Alison) Berman, David (Rachel) Berman, Brian (Brooke) Berman, Matthew (Laney) Berman, Robert (Amanda) Berman, Emily Berman Socolow (Kevin Socolow), Benjamin Berman, and Ava Berman; and his adored great-grandchildren, Max Welsh, Samuel Welsh, and Leo, Ella, Mason, Nathan, Lucy, Camila, Charlie, Isabella, Naomi, Molly, Anthony, Nomi, and Piper Berman. He was predeceased by his sister, Selma Berman, and his parents, Bessie and Benjamin Berman.

Born into humble beginnings, he started his career delivering newspapers before building a business empire that spanned magazines, nursing homes, banking, and real estate. A true innovator, he participated in introducing the concept of timesharing to the United States. In addition to his immense success, he remained devoted to his family, especially his wife of over 68 years, Sandra. The couple's annual family cruise, a tradition for more than three decades, was a testament to his love for family and travel. He was an avid boater, frequently navigating his boat from Florida to Maine. A caring and attentive grandfather, he was known for always showing great interest in each of his grandchildren's lives. His generosity and commitment to communities throughout the country will be forever appreciated and his love for Israel will be forever memorialized by his continuing support for Israel Bonds.
