Jeffrey Applebaum 9/30/1944 - 11/28/2022

On Monday, November 28, 2022, Jeffrey Applebaum, 78, beloved husband, father and friend, passed away with his family at his bedside. Born to George and Gloria Applebaum in Seattle, WA, he graduated from The University of Washington, where he was a member of Sigma Alpha MU, with both his undergraduate degree and his Medical Doctorate. He served in the Army as a Major at Fort Ord in Monterey, CA. After an honorable discharge, he moved to South Lake Tahoe, CA where he opened his own family practice and helped found Temple Bat Yam, the first Jewish Temple in South Lake Tahoe. Jeff moved to Folsom, CA in 1990 and worked for Mercy, Kaiser and finally UC Davis as a family practice doctor. He "retired" from private practice in 2015 and opened his own psychiatric office where he saw patients until days before his passing. When he wasn't practicing medicine, Jeff loved to travel, play golf, bowl, fly drones (and lose them), drink good wine and enjoy his friends and family. Jeff is preceded in death by both of his parents. He is survived by his wife, Ivy, children Sam Applebaum (Laura) & Laura Barrett (William), stepson Kyle Norby and his beloved dog, Lucy. Jeff also leaves behind his siblings, Marilyn Cappa (Claude) and Robert Applebaum (Linda), four granddaughters and many, many friends. Services will be held on Tue, Dec. 6 at 10:30 at Miller Funeral Home in Folsom, CA. In lieu of flowers, please consider a donation to one of the charities that Jeff cared about greatly: Operation Smile, The Humane Society or your local food bank.
