GROSSMAN, ELLIOT SANFORD 75, died on February 4, 2020 surrounded by his loving family, after a long battle with medical issues.

A graduate of Rutgers University with a Ph.D. in Economics, Elliot was the Director of Information Systems at Mt. Sinai Medical Center of Miami Beach for 18 years. Elliot enjoyed fishing, boating, music and computers. He liked spending time in the Everglades City area, where he was always on the lookout for a big snook. Most important to him was his family and his loving wife Anita. He was beloved by nine grandchildren, ranging in age from teenagers to toddlers. In addition to Anita and the grandchildren, he is survived by children Rabbi Benjamin (Michal) Grossman, Ethan (Leah) Grossman, and Emily Grossman (Adam Aronson); brother Gary Grossman, niece Phylise (Richard) Sands, grandnieces and nephew, Maxine & Esther Devitt, Ginger, Lily and Ryan Sands.
