Elliott Maxim Antokoletz

Its hard to believe Elliott has been gone two years. His welcome and warm smile always greeted me in our cul de sac. I think of you Eric and family and send you thoughts for peace and for comfort. Stephanie Benold

Professor Antokoletz is my husband Ph.D Committee Chair and my Music History Class Professor. We are so shock to find this page today and felt so sorry for the lost. Professor Antokoletz has all the best traits, such as empathy, devotion, genus, friendly, and all. We are so missed him and will always remember him. Shawn and Robert Hallis

Elliott era fantástico y admirable. Podía pasarse horas y horas hablando de Bartók enseñándonos, escuchándonos... Un gran músico que sabía ver y encontrar algo dentro de los demás y que siempre estaba al servicio y disposición de todos para ofrecernos su ayuda.

Nunca sabré daros las gracias, Elliott y Juana. Ojalá algún día os pueda devolver al menos una pequeña parte de todo lo que aprendí con vosotros. El profesor Antokoletz fue un verdadero mentor y una de esas grandes personas que me concedieron su amistad, su afecto y su sabiduría. Fue una gran suerte y un gran privilegio haberle conocido.

Que Descanse en Paz y mi más sincero pésame a la familia.

I have known Juana for several years, helping her with her computer, and have met Elliot several times while at their home. He seemed a likeable, charming man... and I am sorry to hear of his passing. My prayers and condolences to Juana and the family.

I remember Elliott with great fondness and respect. May the future bring comfort and peace to all his loved ones. Rena Charnin Mueller (M&A 1960), Clinical Professor of Music, Emerita, NYU

Elliott, Juana and Eric by far are three of the most unique people I have ever met. I had the joy to live next door to them for 24 years. Very kind and always welcoming. I am saddened to hear of his passing he was gifted in so many ways. I especially admired his Art Work, truly a man with many talents and skills. He will be missed greatly.

Dr. Antokoletz was a delightful professor, both in class and in guiding my dissertation. I learned more from him in one course than from any other professor. I am saddened to hear of his passing.

A true mentor

Querida Juana - Me aviso Ma. Eugenia Tapia que Elliot fallecio en diciembre. Siento mucho su perdida y lo que representa para ti y tu hijo.
Te recordamos con mucho aprecio y cariño. Un abrazo, Alicia
