Norfolk—Myron Milton Ungar, son of the late Martha Cooper Ungar and Max Ungar passed away peacefully Monday, March 10, 2014 after a long hard fought illness.
He was born and raised in Norfolk, Va. Following graduation from Granby High School, he went on to do what he did best, sales! Mr. Ungar was the top salesman for Phillips Oldsmobile in Virginia Beach for several years before moving to South Carolina to start working for Combined Insurance Company. In the mid 1980’s he moved to Christiansburg, Va., and continued working for Combined Insurance. While there, Mr. Ungar was awarded several national sales awards, Combined even declared a “National Myron Ungar Day” for his sales efforts and leadership skills.
Myron is survived by his wife, Betty Ungar, his daughters, Dana Ungar Patish (Larry), Bonnie Ungar Dowdy (Mitchell), Heather Ungar Cardenas (Tony), son Joshua Ungar and fiance Christina Nordman, step-daughter Angie Green Smith (Robert) and step-son Christopher Shattuck, his sister Barbara Koonan Krampf and brother Phillip Ungar (Pamela). He is also survived by his grandchildren, Brandon Ungar, Lauren and Austin Dowdy, Melanie, Stacey and Jessica Patish, Sara and Isabella Ungar, as well as several nieces and nephews, all of whom will miss his humor and bad jokes.
