Heritage Florida Jewish News - Central Florida's Independent Jewish Voice

Marshall Leon Helbraun, age 84, passed away at home on Oct. 10, 2020, surrounded by his family. A native of Chicago, Marshall moved to Central Florida in 1979. A trusted professional who cared deeply for the needs of his clients, Marshall embodied his insurance agency’s tag line: “First we listen, then we deliver.” During his years in both Chicago and Central Florida, Marshall was involved with the Jewish community, serving on congregational boards of directors and contributing to Jewish causes.

Marshall is survived by Melinda, his wife of 59 years, his children: Rabbi Sidney (Rabbi Deborah) Helbraun, Jennifer (Daniel) Cohen, and Jordan Helbraun; and was predeceased by his daughter, Sharon Helbraun. He was a cherished grandfather to Becca and Jonah Helbraun, Stefanie (Kevin) DiClemente and Elizabeth Cohen.
