Deborah Beitler Obituary

I only knew a young, absolutely stunningly beautiful Debbie Gottlieb. I believe I met Steve once many years later. I only want to add my condolences and let her kids know that their mom, Debbie, at age 18, was beautiful, smart, clever, quick-witted, funny, artistic, free-spirited,adventurous, feisty, independent thinking and strong-willed (all in a good way). May you all be blessed not just by her memory, but with her many many great qualities. Cliff Mazer

Chadd and I were very sad to hear of Debbie's passing. We will always remember her smile and her energy. We met in high school but we were fortunate to become closer friends later in life. Our condolences to her family. She will be missed by all who knew her.

I am so sad to hear of Deborah's untimely passing. She was a dear, beautifully-spirited woman whose loving and supportive friendship saw me through several difficult times. My heart goes out to her beloved family -- Stephen, Grace, Elinor, Nancy, Marvin and Elaine. I am so sorry you lost her so early.

My condolences to Steve and the Beitler family. I have known Steve for many years through the University of Chicago Booth School of Business Entrepreneurship Advisory Board and have always liked / respected his insights. I am sorry for your family's loss and will say a prayer for Deborah. Susan Hapak
