Herta Cristina Bercovici

Migi lived an extraordinary life—bold, fearless, and full of adventure. She had an unstoppable spirit, always chasing after what she wanted with courage and determination. Her life was full of deep friendships, vanquished empires and hardships, unforgettable celebrations, and abundant love across many countries and continents. Migi made every moment count.

On March 8, 2025 in her 97th year, Migi passed away peacefully surrounded by family. She was the devoted wife of the late Hari for over fifty beautiful years, a loving mother and mother-in-law to Val and Kim, and the proudest “Migica” to Brendan, Maegan, Rowan, and Kieran—her greatest joy was her family. She was the cherished daughter of the late Elena and Isac, beloved sister to her late brother Eddie, darling family friend to Mirela, sister-in-law to beloved Tica, and grand-niece to darling Liron.

Migi’s presence lit up every room with a radiant warmth, humor, and unwavering strength which will be deeply missed by her family, countless friends, and all who had the privilege of knowing her. Migi's memory will live on in the epic stories we share, and the traditions she passed down.

The family extends their deepest gratitude to the incredible staff at Selkirk Senior Village for their devoted care, kindness and compassion during her last years.

A graveside service will be held on Thursday, March 27, 2025, at 2:00 PM at the Hebrew Sick B (D19) section, Baron De Hirsch Cemetery.
