MATTHEW LEIBOWITZ

All who went to Great Neck North remember Matty as a warm and consummate leader. Way too young to be gone.

Sending love, thoughts and prayers to the Leibowitz family during this tough time. So
sorry.

Just learned of Matt's passing. He was a friend to all, a great lawyer, and a strong smile and sense of humor. We served on the board of the FAB together; he was my broadcast lawyer at a number of companies that I led and was always responsive, creative, bright.....and often brutally honest...which sometimes is needed. He'll be holding court for sure in Heaven and it will be a good home for him.

I knew Matty for as long as I can remember and was fortunate to be able to visit with him last month. I will miss his endless energy, inquisitive and thought full mind, and our friendship. My thoughts go out to Hennie, Brandon, Ryan, Rita and the others who considered Matty a friend.

So very sad to learn of Matt's death. He was a leader to all of us at GNN and his passing leaves so many of us, his high school classmates, feeling his loss.

Having met in 7 th grade - And reconnected at our reunions - throughout the years - I am deeply saddened to learn of Matt passing. Remembering the wonderful childhood times together from class elections to Saturday cheerleading at football games. A genuine person who made those around him feel good about themselves. He leaves a lasting memory. My sincere condolences to his family and loved ones.

To the Leibowitz family and friends of Matty,
I fondly remember Matty as a teenager in high school, the president of our Great Neck North class. I was secretary of the student council and had the opportunity to work with him. So long ago, but I still can envision his fabulous smile, warmth and leadership. He was a very special person, and I know this a huge loss to the many who loved him and were touched by him. This childhood friend sends deepest sympathy.

My deepest sympathy to the entire Leibowitz family. Ryan and Brandon - so sorry for your loss. Matt will be sorely missed. His unending faith and courage were truly amazing. Warm personal regards. Barbara Laurence

We had not spoken or seen each other since high school, but Matty was a class act all the way and a true leader. My deepest condolences to the family.

I did not know very well. But well enough that when you were President of the GO Great Neck Senior High, I knew then you will become a great asset to society. God Bless you and your whole family. Rest in Peace.

Mortality hit me like a bolt of lightening when I heard that Matty's had passed. We lived across the street from each other on Fir Drive, taking the bus to school everyday since Kindergarten. He was my first friend. I remember that his entire family were always warm and inviting. I can't tell you how many cookies I had after-school at his house, I only wish we had keep in better contact. My fondest memories of Matty are etched into my mind forever.

On behalf of the GNN Class of 1968 our deepest condolences to the entire Leibowitz family. Matt was our leader from 7th grade to 12th grade and will surely be missed at our 50th reunion in 2 years. Rest in Peace Matt. xoxo Lisa

So sorry for your loss - our prayers are with you and the family.

My condolences to Brandon, Ryan and the entire family. Matt was a mentor who gave me an opportunity to pursue communications law and was a force in that field throughout his career. He will be missed.

Brandon/Ryan. My thoughts and prayers are with you and the family. Matt was such a wonderful and caring man. Always endearing and even keel. Supportive - a friend for life. The world, and specifically our community, lost a shining star.

Ryan and Brandon--I was shocked and deeply saddened this morning to read of your dad's passing. I am so very sorry. I will always remember Matt as a sweet, engaged and warm man who wanted to leave the world around him better than he found it. Margaret Haun (MAST Academy)

My condolences to the Leibowitz family. Matt and I worked together in the field of broadcast regulation from the time he was a bright young attorney at the FCC. He was greatly admired and respected by the members of the communications bar.
