Alexander Grass Obituary

Published by Legacy Remembers on Aug. 30, 2009.
GRASS--Alexander. On behalf of the Board of Trustees and the staff of the National Museum of American Jewish History, we express our deepest sympathy on the passing of Alexander Grass, a member of our Board of Trustees. As an active philanthropist and community leader, Alex's contributions to the National Museum of American Jewish History were a wonderful reflection of his commitment to the history and the future of the American Jewish experience. Alex was immensely valued, and his counsel and ardent support will be very much missed by those of us who had the privilege to work with him. We offer our heartfelt condolences to his family. George M. Ross and Ronald Rubin, Co-Chairmen of the Board of Trustees Michael Rosenzweig, President and CEO

I remember cleaning at Rite Aid for him when I worked for Omex around 1996 and he was the only one there in the evening and I knew he was Martin's father so was shocked to find him still there and apologized for disturbing him and he was so polite to me.

My condolences on your loss. I remember Mr. Grass as a do not let anything stop me. quite a few years ago I was a member of a band called the sidemen and performed for many parties which he attended, In the year that the "72" flood happened one of the daughters was getting married and we were selected to play for the pre nuptial party. That day it flooded and we called to find out if things were still on and the reply was, Yes. Even though the roads were almost impassible several of our bands members made it across the river to the festivities. I think his whole life was that if he wanted to do it, it got done. May he rest in peace. Sincerely, Richie Ranaglia

My sincere sympathy to the Grass family. As with thousands of others Alex played an important role in my career. When Alex was diagnosed with lung cancer our relationship became much more personnel.

To Alex's family - please accept my sympathies on your Dad's passing. He was a great man. If you look at all the comments that have been made regarding him, you will see that we all loved him in our own ways. He was the best boss that I ever had and I will remember him fondly. He always wanted me to come and fix his computer or teach him new programs. I smile when I think of those days. Rest in peace Alex.
