Still miss you Isadore and talk about you often!

Had the honor to be two offices away from his. He was very kind, accepting and supportive. He offered me to review a book related to my filed to be published in the journal that he was its editor....I thought that was very kind from him being the distinguished professor to me who just joined the college about a year or so then....

Dr. Newman is greatly missed.

Carol, just learned of Izzy's passing. So sorry to hear about it and please accept my belated condolences. Jim Altschuld

Hey Dr. Carole, I am sorry for your loss, your husband really gave me direction while figuring out my study focus. I had him during his last semester at the University of Akron. God bless you Izzy, and enjoy your matriculation into a higher, higher education. Dr. Denise Rich-Gross

It's been three months since you have been gone and that by itself is three months too many. You are SO missed.

To the family of Dr Isadore Newman.
I was a student of Isadore - all the way from Scotland - and have never forgotten what a great teacher he was. So much so I still have the book 'Conceptual Statistics for Beginners' in case I would need it. As it happens, my daughter (21) is now doing statistics as she trains to be a physician - and I immediately thought of the book. Carole, I remember you as well.
I was sad to hear that this great teacher had passed away. God bless you all.

My dear aunt Carole: i have known iz my entire life and in reading, listening to his colleagues, students and friends know so much more about what he was all about. I am glad we spent new years together. Iz and Joyce are smiling. Love Janet

Dear Carole, David, and family,
I am so saddened to learn of your loss. While I only knew Isadore through our interactions at AERA and in the Mixed Methods SIG, I so appreciated his passion for scholarship, his love of debate, and his enduring humor. It's amazing to think of the number of scholars that he mentored and the number of assumptions that he called into question. Mixed methods and AERA will never be the same again.
With heartfelt gratitude for the friendship he shared,
Vicki

May your soul rest in peace. My deepest condolences to you, Carole and sons. Sufian Forawi (UAE)

Izzy was a scholar, a righteous person,and a friend...he will be dearly missed

I will miss his mentoring, friendship, and collegiality over the many years.

He was an amazing person. My best to Carole.

Psalm 90:10 says that the days of our years are 70 years, And if because of special mightiness they are 80 years.
May the memories of the wonderful times you shared together bring a smile and joy in your heart.

Dear Carole, and family,
I know you are filled with memories. I hope that they are happy ones. I have a few of those 1000 jokes from Izzy in my head, and know that his soul is still coming up with a few more to add to those! He will be deeply missed. I hope that you stay in touch with MWERA, and all of the people there that love and miss you. Please take time to heal and know that you, and Izzy, are in the thoughts of many!

How saddened I was to learn of Izzy's passing. I fondly remember working with him and with Carole on our project with Akron teachers. My deepest sympathies to you, Carole, and your family.

Dear Carole and family,
Wanted to express my deepest sympathies to you and your family for the passing of your dear Izzy. Dr. Newman was my dissertation faculty adviser, who with all his brilliance and great humor. was so encouraging and supportive which made this difficult task so much easier. He will always be remembered.

Heartfelt sympathies to you all,

Anka Dzeba, Barberton, OH

Dear Carole and boys,

Lynda and I send our warmest sympathy to you and your family at this very difficult time.

We will always remember Izzy with a great deal of admiration and for his good humor -- some of it funny.

Caesar and Lynda

I will never forget you Isadore Newman... your humor, your brilliance, your kindness, your mentoring nature... how blessed I was to have you as my dissertation co-chair and even more blessed to have you as my friend, mentor, and co-author. My condolences to you Carole, David, and Matthew. We all know that Isadore was one of a kind & he will be missed for a very long time by many.

Carole, David, and Matthew--I'm so sorry for your loss. I met Izzy when I first started my academic career, while attending MWERA and AERA professional meetings. He immediately made me feel comfortable and welcome, and showed genuine interest in my research and career. Izzy was "larger than life," everyone knew him and loved him, and he made these meetings so stimulating and enjoyable. His body of research will endure, as will the journal he founded. We will all miss him, terribly, however. My best wishes for each of you in this difficult time.

I had the great pleasure to work with Dr. Newman on several projects in grad school. He had a larger-than-life personality and he loved to mentor students. He treated me with dignity and respect and I will always value our friendship.

Carole,
I am sorry for your loss. I enjoyed working with Isadore, whom I felt was a kindred spirit. I shall miss him.
