Saturday will be the 8 year anniversary of Everett's passing. I met Dr. Dulit when I was 19 after dropping out of uni and for the first time found myself derailed from my successful journey. We began our relationship moving through time and many different offices until we settled on the top floor of his home on Sage Terrace. Everett was definitely a renaissance man. His visit to my home to greet my newborn son was such a delight for both of us. When not connected by therapy we were connected by music. I will always keep my fond memories of Everett in my heart as I recently became a septuagenarian. Every Saturday I visit my therapist at 45 Popham where I see Rebecca Dulit's name as one of the professionals sharing office space. It never ceases to put a smile on my face.
I think how lucky I was to have shared time with this amazing human being.

Dear Elinor and family.

I worker with Ev when he was a consultant for the Child Advocacy Center at Montefiore. Ev was lively and energetic and his take on child abuse issues was interesting and often refreshing. I still quote him on several issues. The last time I saw him was at his retirement party at the Bronx Botanical Garden.
I was very sad to lean of his death today and I wanted to express my condolences to your family.

My first job after college was as a mental health worker on the adolescent unit at NY Hosp when Ev was Unit Chief. I learned from him then and for years after as he became a supervisor and mentor of mine. As a psychologist working with adolescents to this day, Ev is never far from my mind. His energy, enthusiasm, and, most of all, his independent thinking and willingness, no eagerness to speak his mind, have been great influences and I continue to take comfort remembering him. My sincere condolences to the family.

As one who shared a long relationship with
Ev as a dear friend and companion starting in our childhood, I will miss his great wisdom, intelligence, humor and, of course his musicianship. My fondest sympathies to Elinor and all his family. Bob Goldston

Dear Elinor and family.
My fond memories of Everett go back to my childhood. As the neighbor and close family friend of his aunt and uncle, Ruth and Joe Lewis, I knew both his parents. There were always tales of his
genius and muisical talents. We went to camp together.
We all moved to Scarsdale and as adults. I became a psychotherapist
Ev's reputation on a professional and personal level were always
impressive. Therefore when I had family problems I turned to him as a wise therapist who had the advantage of knowing something about me and my family. He was direct, intuitive, and got to the core of the problems
I shall always remember him with deep admiration
My sympathies to you all
Sincerely
Susan Itkin Sarlin and family

To the Dulit Family,
I had the pleasure of working side by side with Ev as a social worker at Montefiore Medical Center for many years. He was a down and dirty psychiatrist who told you like it is...and he was always on the mark.
Ev was truely one of a kind and he will be missed.
My condolences to you all.

To the Dulit Family,

I was fortunate to have been a resident on Dr. Dulit's unit at the New York Hospital, White Plains Division. He was a challenging and caring psychiatrist. His love of jazz permeated his being...and what fun! Rest in peace, Ev.
