Sending my heartfelt condolences to the entire Bedzow family. Your family & mine were entwined for many many years growing up with such fond memories. We shared such monumental experiences in Montreal & Miami Beach. I miss our family’s fun times & will cherish them forever as my children do too. They were a unique brave generation of survivors. May you know no more sorrow. They will live in our hearts forever💕

Dear Bedzow family, My mother Sylvia Kohn was a close friend of your parents. They were a beautiful and very special couple. Our memories are of Sally and Charlie on the dance floors of our Simchas. They stopped dancing only when the music stopped. Cherish all of your wonderful memories. Our hearts are with you Reissa and Steve Schreter

To the Bedzow family: We want to express our condolences on the loss of your father Charlie. We had the opportunity to share a number of dinners together with your parents in Montreal and in Florida and the life lessons we learned from them are unmatched. The heroism of your father with the Bielski brothers to the story of your mother and the hidden Sefer Torah are just some of the stories we remember. We loved the way your father spoke Yiddish to his best friends and the love both your parents had for Yiddish songs. They were a couple in love each and every day. Charles was a man of grace and character. We wish your family strength and nechama to continue your father’s legacy. Lisa and Chaim Steinmetz

I never had the priviledge of meeting Charles Bedzow, but do remember seeing his name associated with many worthwhile charitable organizations over many years and have heard the name mentioned in a business sense, as my late father Jack Rudick was the founder and president of Western Exterminating and I am certain that Charles did not allow his properties to be infected with vermin Reading the obituary has allowed me to have a better understanding......Kol HaKavod...........what an honor it is for Montreal to have given them permission to immigrate to our city ........and they did our city proud.

We are sorry to learn that Charles has passed. The Bedzow and Resnik families shared a long history beginning with the Bielskis, fighting and surviving, to their homes in Montreal , where everyone flourished, in their new lives. This generation and their voices are irreplaceable, their invaluable lessons will be missed.

To the Bedzow Family - my condolences on the passing of Charles. He was my neighbour in Hampstead for 15 years. I always enjoyed chatting with him about real estate, the Olympics and other topics. He always made himself available when I sought out his business advice.. May the many wonderful memories comfort you at this time. Mark

Losing a loved one is always difficult regardless of their age. A rabbi explained that it is like a candle going out in a dark room…whether blown out or simply burned out, the room is left in darkness. So it is with the loss of a parent. Our hearts and thoughts are with you and our hopes that wonderful memories make the loss a little easier.

Rabbi Allan Nadler - 23 days ago

Dear Michael and Bedzow family, I am sorry to hear of your remarkable father's passing. I have many fond memories of your father from our youth in Montreal. I recall my own father, Joseph (Yosel) Nadler, z"l telling my brother Berl and me about the "hero, Mr. Bedzow who fought the Germans in the woods". Only many years later, would I learn about the partisans of Poland and Lithuania, and about the particular heroism of the woman and me of the "Bielski Brigade." Charles Bedzow of course went on to become one of the pillars of the Montreal philanthropic community. His life was such a blessing to so many, and may all of your memories of him be a blessing as well. Allan Nadler

Dear Fran, Howard, Jason , Marnie and families. My sincere condolences on the loss of your father and grandfather. I remember him from way back when as a kind and caring man. More recently I would pass by their house on my daily walks with my dog and would wave to them as they either sat at the window, or sitting outside. They were always so happy when we waved back. May all the wonderful memories shared help guide you through this difficult time. BDE

Dear Fran, Howard, Michael, Esther and the entire Bedzow family. Condolences on Charles passing. It is so hard to believe that fifty years passed since I first met Charlie as as his companies auditor and then as his employee as Controller and eventually CFO of Pacific. It was always a pleasure to see him and be with him and Benny. He was an extremely generous man, even inviting my family to use the Bedsow family apartment on Collins Avenue. In later years, I would bump into him on Hampstead Road near the tennis courts. I would stop and have a short chat with him while he was out for a walk. He was always happy to see and greet me, remembering our association of working together. Charles lived a long succesful life and achieved so much as noted in the Obituary. May your wonderful memories help console you at this sad time and may Charles now rest in peace. BDE
