Technology in Haifa, Israel.
Mr. Grand received
a Technion Honorary
Doctorate in 2010 for his
“unwavering support” over
four decades.
After Levy introduced
his friend to the American
Israel Public Affairs
Committee, Mr. Grand
became “an enthusiastic
supporter of AIPAC and
Israeli politics.”
Known for having a warm
and genuine personality,
Mr. Grand also enjoyed
enduring friendships with
Detroit communal leaders
Larry Jackier and Stanley
Frankel.
“Steve Grand is one
of the finest people I’ve
ever had the privilege of
knowing,” said Alan S.
Schwartz, his friend since
childhood. “I’ve been lucky
enough to witness his nearly
unrivaled generosity to the
great medical and research
institutions in Israel and to
the Jewish people and was
inspired by his commitment
to the communities in which
he and Nancy lived.”
Stephen Grand is survived
by his wife, Nancy; her
children, Russell Maddin
and Lauren Gaver; her
grandchildren, Alexis
Maddin, Riley Maddin and
Jack Gaver; sisters, Betsy
Marcus and Diana Grand;
sister-in-law, Susan Spilker;
nieces, nephews and a world
of friends.
