Julius Levy Obituary

In New York City, peacefully at age 93. Husband of the late Jane Levy. Beloved father of Fredrick J. Levy and his wife, Kathy Gruber of NYC, and Douglas J. Levy and his wife, Margo Heller-Levy of Newton, MA. Adoring grandfather of Jennifer, Andres, Jonathan and Nathaniel. Jules, along with his law partners, pioneered stockholder derivative, class action lawsuits and developed a renowned law practice at Pomerantz, Levy, Haudek and Block. Jules argued before the U.S. Supreme Court twice and treasured a note from Justice Frankfurter. Jules will be remembered for his incredible intellectual conversations and reasoned approach to any problem, personal or political. Donations in memory of Jules may be made to either South Brooklyn Legal Services Cardozo Internship Fund, c/o John Gray, SBLS, 105 Court St., Brooklyn, NY 11201 or the University Settlement House Endowment Campaign, 184 Eldridge St., NY, NY 10003.

Margo and family,
I am sorry for your loss. I got to meet Jules once I believe when he came into the store. Take comfort in the wonderful years you spent together.

We will certainly miss Jules. He was truly a gentleman and a very caring and intelligent person. But we feel relieved that he's getting his well deserved rest. Hopefully, Jane and Jules are now vacationing together.

To our very favorite neighbor who we will miss with all of our heart. 320 will not be the same without you!

We're the "other Levi's" in the building and perhaps the 2nd longest tenured residents...but Jule's will always be "The Levy" @ 320 and our entire family is saddened by his passing.
