History / Biographical
Abe Carlofsky was born on December 8, 1912, in Ottawa, the son of Hannah and David Carlofsky. “David and Hannah immigrated from Odessa to Ottawa. With the births in Ottawa of Rose, Freda, Anne, Abe and Sol, the Carlofskys became a close-knit family of five children.” Abe, Freda and Sol never married. In September 1927, Abe Carlofsky enrolled in the Commercial Department of the Technical School, later known as the High School of Commerce. Previously he had been in First Form of Kent Street High School. He was promoted to Third Form in June, 1928. By July of 1929, he entered the Civil Service of Canada and in 1934 was assigned to a permanent position as a clerk. He served on Active Service with the Royal Canadian Air Force from September 1942 until May 1946. He served overseas for two years, on flight control work and saw service in England and with the occupational force in Germany. After the war Abe returned to the Civil Service and took early retirement in the 1960's. For the next forty years he identified and supported worthy causes in the Carlofsky Family name. These charities included Beth Shalom Synagogue, Carlofsky Family Day Care at Hillel Lodge as well as Civic Hospital and Ottawa General Campuses of the Ottawa Hospital. Abe became an avid golfer at the Rideau View Golf Club, and also served on the Rideau View Golf Club's board.
