I am dishearten with the news of the passing of Dr.Paul Satz and Mrs. Satz (Gladys)whom I consider my second family. You both mean the world to me and I love you both!

I'll share three things about Dr. Satz. The first is that, for a fellow with such an academic pedigree, he really was unpretentious. The second is that he was a great competitor in tennis. I loved our weekend battles. The third is that his love for his family was pretty evident - he always loved talking about his kids.

After casual contacts during other conventions, I first met Paul in Gainesville where he practiced his "family relationship" with his graaduate students. We then went to one of the first INS meetings in Tampa - we all still fitted into one medium-sized meeting room.
Later, Paul joined us in Victoria, B.C., where he continued his research and his family relationship mcu to the benefit of our graduate students. We all regretted very much when he moved on to LA.
Paul was a friend, a...

I was a UCLA-NPI psychiatry resident in 1981, when Dr. Satz joined the faculty there. All residents were responsible for a Grand Rounds clinical presentation. We often invited faculty to discuss the patient we would present. Another faculty member mentioned Paul was new to UCLA and might be interested being involved. I will never forget the incredible impression he made on all of those faculty and students in attendance. His talk about my patient and her schizophrenia was a highlight of my...

I was very sorry to hear the sad news of Paul's passing. While at the fellowship (1991-1993) I was in awe of his knowledge, amazed at his work ethic, and appreciative of his generosity in sharing research opportunities with students, fellows and colleagues. As many others mentioned, it was amazing to sit in on a deposition while he formulated answers to attorney's less-than-clear questions. His contributions will continue to be appreciated for many years to come. Thanks, Paul.

I was fortunate to complete a post-doctoral fellowship at UCLA from 1986 to 1988. Paul was a wonderful mentor; his personality larger than life. I flew into L.A. from buttoned-down Boston to interview and was recovering from a flu when Paul noticed my left-handedness and asked me to take off my shoes so he could measure my feet. By the end, this proved to be the most unusual and entertaining interview of my life.

I will cherish memories of Paul Satz forever: Watching him testify in...
