Florida, on Feb. 25, 1967, Mitchell Bernstein, survived by one son, one daughter, two brothers, four sisters, five grandchildren, and several nephews and nieces. The body will arrive by plane Monday morning, and will rest at the vestry of Shaarei Zedek Synagogue, Carleton Street, from where the funeral will be held Monday afternoon with service at 3 o’clock. Interment in Fernhill Cemetery. Evening Times Globe February 1967 Theatre Pioneer And Active Citizen The passing of Mr. Mitchell S. Bernstein breaks one of the few remaining links with the early days of the motion picture business in this part of Canada. The B. and L. Theatre Circuit, in which he had been a partner since 1928, came into being at a time when history-making developments were taking place in the motion picture world with the approach of the 'talkies'. The company, recognizing the prospect that the silent era would soon fade into oblivion, pioneered in the introduction of talking pictures in this region and continued to grow with the advance of the new entertainment medium. Mr. Bernstein was well known also in the real estate and apartment field in Saint John. But despite the extent of his business activities he found time to take a prominent role in a great many aspects of the work of the Shaarei-Zedek Congregation, the Zionist Organization of Canada, and the Israel bond and appeal campaigns. These constructive efforts were recognized in various honors Mr. Bernstein was accorded both in Canada and in Israel. His leadership will be missed in this community, and many friends of all faiths will be saddened by his death. Bernstein, Mitchell S. Evening Times Globe February 1967 Community Mourns Mitchell Bernstein Mitchell S, Bernstein, a prominent local business man, passed away in hospital in Miami Beach, Florida, Saturday afternoon, following a brief illness. He was born in New York City, in 1895, the son of the late Louis and Fanny Bernstein. He had been a resident of Saint John for over 50 years. Mr. Bernstein founded the Mitchell Apartments and also was one of the principal owners of the Latour Terrace Buildings, on Union Street. Mitchell Street, in the city, was named after him. In partnership with Joseph Lieberman, he formed the B and L Theatre Circuit, which covers the Maritime Provinces and Maine, with its head office in Saint John. This partnership, which was formed in June 1928, nearly 40 years ago, was the first company to introduce talking pictures to the area, with the partners using their own equipment on the road. Mr. Bernstein was married to the late Clara Goldfeather who passed away in 1962. He is survived by one daughter, Mrs. E. R. Cohen (Erminie), one son Mortimer L., both of Saint John, five grandchildren; two brothers, Moe Bernstein, New York City, Willie Bernstein, Los Angeles; four sisters, Mrs. Bessie Margolian, Omaha, Neb.; Mrs. Sam Mollet, Mrs. Sam Rosenberg, and Miss Zelda Bernstein, all of Los Angeles, and several nephews and nieces.

He was an honorary vice president of the Zionist Organization of Canada. In May 1954, the Saint John Jewish Community honored him with a testimonial and Negev Dinner.
