Obituary – Mrs. Nurit Pahl 23/03/2024 - Judges

The FIFe Board was informed that the International All Breed Judge, Mrs. Nurit Pahl (IL) passed away peacefully, at home, surrounded by her loved ones, on Thursday night the 21st of March 2024. Nurit had been bravely fighting cancer but ultimately lost this unfair battle.

Already in the nineties, Nurit was active in the, then Israeli Member, AMIL in various Board positions and she was founder and president of the former Israeli FIFe Member Sabra Cat. Nurit bred Persians in the colours chinchilla, silver shaded, colourpoint and solid colours, mainly white under the cattery name “Sunny Sabra.”

Nurit passed her judge´s exam in category I in 1999, in category II in 2000, in category III in 2003 and in category IV in 2005 and since that time, she judged all over the world as an International All Breed Judge. Nurit was a popular and colourful judge always elegantly dressed who greeted you with a big smile.

We will all miss Nurit, and the Board of FIFe extends its sincere condolences to her husband, daughter, son-in-law, grandchildren and family and friends and the Romanian FIFe Member FAF-FR.
