Stanley Yulish

Yulish, Stanley, passed away on January 3, 2002 from a cerebral hemmorage. Mr. Yulish, practiced workers' compensation law for more than 30 years. He was the founding partner of Yulish, Twohig and Associates, one of the leading worker's compensation law firms in the city and was an advocate for worker's rights. In the 1960s, he combined parcels of undeveloped land in both North Olmsted and North Royalton and rezoned the properties for multifamily development. He became the largest landowner in North Royalton, developing the property that intersected I 71 and Sterns Road. In the early 1980s he saw the potential of the Historic Warehouse District for office and retail use. He pioneered the redevelopment efforts by redeveloping the oldest commercial building in Cleveland (the Hilliard Building) into a national historic site that housed his law offices and the Stanley Yulish Art Gallery. He was an avid collector of art, Israeli coins and stamps, and developed one of the largest collections of Israeli coins in the world. He was a past president of the American-Israel Numismatist Association and a past vice-president of The Polo Club of Boca Raton, Florida, where he was an avid tennis player. In the past 10 years, after relocating to Boca Raton, Florida, he developed an interest in holistic and nutritional healing and helped hundreds of people become healthier. In the past 4 years, he dedicated his life to finding a cure for his wife of 50 years, Ina, who was diagnosed with stage 4 metastatic lung cancer and given 6 months to live. He researched and networked throughout the world and put her on a nutritional, diet, spiritual program, using Kaballah (Jewish mysticism) as a spiritual foundation. His daughter, Susan Muszynski, co-founder of Project Love said, "I was truly inspired by my father and the love he had for my mother. He refused to give up my mother and, he dedicated himself to being a caretaker, researcher, healer and personal coach. He went out of his way in his law practice for the common man, helping them deal with their disabilities. He mentored people in business. He enjoyed helping people. Just the other day, the mailman told me that everyday Dad would invite him into the house and give him apple juice so that he could be refreshed for the rest of his mail route. That's the kind of man he was and that is our legacy." Mr. Yulish was predeceased by his parents, Izzy and Minna (Scott) Yulish, and his wife Ina (Eskin) Yulish. He is survived by his daughters, Sheri (Mark) Brenner of Boca Raton, FL and Dr. Susan (Stuart) Muszynski of Lyndhurst, OH; his brothers, Gene of New York, NY, Charles of Washington, D.C., and Mort of Swathmore, PA. He is the son-in-law of Murry and Mollie (Katz) Eskin of Hallandale, FL; brother-in-law to Gloria Adler of Piscataway, NJ; Uncle of Susan and David Adler; Jonathan, Lexie and Christopher Yulish.
