The Detroit Friends of Bar-Ilan University as well as the University's faculty, Senate, student body and worldwide friends, deeply mourn the passing of Bar-Ilan's founder Phillip Stollman, of blessed memory One of Bar-Ilan's earliest visionaries, he along with his brother and sister-in-law, Max and Frieda Stollman, and a group of extraordinary Detroiters, cultivated and nourished the University in its earliest days, allowing it to become a major university of 25,000 students and the largest center of Jewish education in the world. Phillip Stollman needs no monument; his fierce care and compas- sion for his people and for their education, as well as his family's continued commitment to these values, serve as a lasting testament to his invaluable contribution to Israel and to the Jewish people. May his name be a blessing and continued inspiration to us all.
