Arthur Tauber, 94, one of the oldest residents of Long Branch, New Jersey, passed away on January 10, 2023. He is survived by a loving family including his wife Jean, and their three children, Mark, Michele, and Alan, as well as Alan’s wife Andrea, and their two children, Rebecca and Ilan. Arthur’s sister Selma Shubin also grieves his loss, as well as her son Brian, her daughter Michele and son-in-law Jack Kaplan, and their two children Jason and Brandon.
Arthur grew up in the Bronx and remembered with fondness his formative years at DeWitt Clinton High School and as a Star Scout who led his troop. After a tour of duty in the Navy at the submarine base in New London, Connecticut, Arthur received a bachelor’s degree in Chemistry, and began work as a civil service researcher at the U.S. Army Electronics Command at Fort Monmouth New Jersey in 1954. He would go on to work for the command for over 40 years, earning a master’s degree and Ph.D. in chemistry along the way. Arthur published many peer-reviewed articles still cited by scientists and received some 20 patents from both the U.S. and Canada. He took great pleasure in his role as board member of the Junior Science Symposium and the local chapter of the American Chemical Society as well as in mentoring many up-and-coming science students.
Arthur was an active member of Congregation B’nai Sholom for over 30 years, serving as treasurer and Men’s Club president. When the congregation merged with Temple Beth El in Ocean Township, he was honored to carry one of its Torahs to its new home. He continued as a regular attender, particularly at Minha services to comfort the bereaved who said Kaddish for those who had lost loved ones.
Arthur loved fishing and canoeing. He tended a vegetable garden that yielded what he jokingly called, “Tauber’s terrible tomatoes.” Along with Jean, he was a lifetime subscriber to the performing arts and took classes to become an early adopter of home computers.
In his later years, Arthur never missed an opportunity to celebrate the joyous milestones of his grandchildren and nieces nephews including graduations, weddings, and Bar and Bat Mitzvahs. He and Jean traveled the world from Japan to Europe and Israel, and took tours of the U.S. national parks.
His family, friends, and colleagues will honor his memory at a service on Friday, January 13, at Temple Torat-El at 11:30am, 301 Monmouth Road, Oakhurst; www.torat-el.org. Graveside service to follow at Cemetery Chesed Shel Ames, Neptune. For messages of condolence, please visit Arthur’s page of tributes at www.woolleyboglioli.com.
