MARTIN REISFELD
Martin Reisfeld, 82, a resident of Albuquerque for 20 years, died on October 7, 2015, after a long illness. Mr. Reisfeld was born in Brooklyn, New York and attended the City College of New York, the University of Maryland, and Pennsylvania State University. He married his beautiful wife, Sherry, in 1957 and they moved to Los Alamos, where he served as a chemist for the laboratory.

He will be remembered for his intelligence, wit, and generosity, and will be deeply missed by all who knew him. Mr. Reisfeld was preceded in death by his wife, Sherry.
