I know I'm late in leaving this message but I just found out about the professor's passing. I graduated from Cooley in 2001. I loved professor Glicksman, he was my favorite professor. I took one of his classes and enjoyed it very much, so I ended up taking two more classes from him before graduating. The ethics and professional responsibility he taught me will never be forgotten.

Elliot was a fantastic teacher and an all around good guy. It was a pleasure to work with him!

I was just in the car remembering an old scene from law school to a friend. It was about obtaining evidence in a certain manner and the people used to explain this were 2 fictional characters Mr. grey coat and Mrs scarf (who also played a lady of the night in other scenarios)but after reflecting on how I learned this crucial piece of evidence law , I started to remember all the evidence I learned from this man. I decided to google him to see if he was still teaching , only to learn of his death. He was truly one of the best teachers I ever had ...from grade school to law school. We haven't talked in years and he may not remember me but I will always remember him. rest in peace sir.

I just learned of Elliot's passing which was reported in the current Michigan Bar Journal. Although I have not seen him since grade school, I well remember Elliot as a great kid who apparently foreshadowed the Mentsch he became. May his memory be for a blessing.

Elliott was a special friend and fellow alumnus of the University of Detroit Law School, class of 1969.
His intensity and excitement were infectious, and I was fortunate to be able to stay in touch with him over the years, albeit from Denver.
My condolences to his family.

Thea,
I am so sorry to learn of the passing of Elliot. He was a fine man and a loyal U-Club member. I am proud to be, at least in a small way, a member of his and your tribe.

Thea,

I was so sorry to learn of Elliot's death. Elliot and l were close friends during our law school years. Along with Richard Bogdanski, we formeda study group that saw us through three years of study plus the bar exam in 1969.

Eliott was a dedicated intellectual and idealistic citizen. He was truly devoted to his teaching. He was the very best kind of attorney. I admired him and will miss knowing he is there.

So sorry to read this morning of his passing.
He was the finest law professor I ever had.
I still recall his lessons and that they saved me on so many occasions.

Thea,

I read about Elliiot's death in the Lansing State Journal which I read on line. While I didn't know him well, I knew about his positive influence on the Jewish Community in E. L. and I want to offer you my sincere condolences.

I hope that the memories of your life together will help sustain you in the time to come.

So sorry to read about Elliot's death. While I haven't seen him in awhile, we went to law school together and, in fact, grade school together. I have nice memories of a very nice man. My condolences go out to his family. May all your memories of him be for a blessing.

Elliot was a once in a lifetime person. He had an amazing blend of humor and intelligence. He packed a monumental punch in a small package. My thoughts and prayers are with Thea and her family.

I am so sorry for your loss.
I enjoyed working with Elliot at Cooley. He was a dedicated teacher and loved by his students. He made a contribution to the lives of the students who passed his way.
