Graciela Grynberg

It is with deep sadness that we announce the peaceful passing of Graciela Grynberg on Friday, July 18, 2025, at the age of 84.

Known affectionately to many as ‘Pupi’, Graciela was born in Buenos Aires, Argentina, a city she truly adored and where she spent most of her life. Her journey also led her to live in Paraguay and Costa Rica, before finding her final home in Calgary, Canada, where she spent the last twenty years surrounded by her family. Along the way, she formed wonderful and lasting friendships that will always remember her fondly.

Graciela lived a special life, finding great joy in the simple things. She loved getting lost in a good book, spending time with her grandchildren, petting her cats, enjoying the beauty of flowers, and taking in the brightness of sunny days. But those around her will remember her most for her passion for food. Graciela was known for her comforting home-cooked meals and delicious baked goods, and her eagerness to share all her culinary gifts with those she loved.

Graciela was predeceased by her son, Daniel, and will be remembered by her loving family: her daughter, Ruth Jaliff; her son-in-law, Ariel; and her two grandchildren, Tamara and Ethan. They will forever carry her memory in their hearts, and she'll be deeply missed by all who had the pleasure of knowing her.

In keeping with her wishes, the family will not hold a funeral.
