Aviva Schotland Memorial Fund
Schotland Memorial Fund
January 7, 2026 Update:
With great sadness, the Schotland family announces the passing of Marvin Schotland, husband to Sandy, father to Daniel (Marieka) and Aviva (z'l), sister to Tess (Bruce) and Saba to Eitan, Oren, Lielle & Levi, on January 7, 2026. The family chooses to honor his memory through donations to the Aviva Schotland Memorial Fund whose sudden passing in 2021 shocked us all. They are both deeply missed.
--------------------------------------------
Aviva, of blessed memory, was a thinker, a dreamer, and a creator. She was a loving fiancée, sister, daughter, granddaughter, aunt, and mother to Levi. She was a fierce friend with friendships spanning multiple decades and various parts of her life. She was the center of her loving family, always willing to spend time with her beloved nephews and niece, play a family game, or make a home-cooked dinner. She loved the outdoors, hiking, and yoga. She loved to travel, especially if it meant spending time in Hawaii or Vermont.
Aviva was an independent, creative, thoughtful, and caring person. She was a passionate and talented graphic artist and had a Bachelor’s Degree in Art History from UC Santa Barbara and another degree in Graphic Design from FIDM San Francisco. She built a successful career designing beautiful creations, with a focus on packaging, at many companies including The North Face, Sephora, and Biossance. We will hold her love in our hearts forever.
We honor her memory by establishing the Aviva Schotland Memorial Fund at the Jewish Community Foundation of Los Angeles, where we will direct donations towards causes that were meaningful to Aviva.
Thank you for joining us in honoring her memory alongside Marvin’s. May their memory be a blessing, and may they rest in peace.
Adam Shamieh, Sandy & Marvin Schotland, z”l, Daniel & Marieka, Eitan, Oren & Lielle Schotland
