His abiding sense of justice and his concern for humanity motivated him to play a leading role in our community. He will be greatly missed by all those who were associated with him in his many endeavors. I knew Solomon Petchers best as the national treasurer of the American Jewish Congress. He was always at the forefront of that organizations many battles for human dignity. His own career. from Turkish immigrant to New York realtor and philanthropist. embodied what is best in mankind. I want to take this occasion to express my heartfelt sympathy to Mrs. Petchers. their son Jesse. and all the other members of his family.
