James Glaser Obituary

Jim remembered his days at DePaul and Alpha Beta Gamma fraternity fondly.



Jim and I married in 1967. We produced 2 beautiful children, Dawn (Howlett) and Jason. Things being what they were, we both moved on. Jim became an activist; living first in Minneapolis. He remarried and had another daughter Katie, as well as raising two other stepdaughters, Kelly and Kary. Eventually, they settled in Phoenix, Arizona. As life went on, Jim later met LaNay. They were together 11 years. While in Arizona, Jim became known as the founder of the Phoenix Adult Hockey Association. As he was in all things he believed in, Jim was passionate about PAHA, passionate and devoted to his children, stepchildren and lovely grandchildren. We always remained good friends. As our children will miss him greatly, I have lost a friend, too. Shalom, my friend.

Remember when I helped you move out of your apartment? My back still hurts. I would like to remember that we were friends while at DePaul. Those are cherished memories. My regrets for Jim, and wish your family well.

Jason,

You may or may not remember me, but I went to Eugene Field School with you a loooonnnnng time ago. I remember you and your family and the fact that we share the same birthday 7/16/66. I just wanted to send my heartfelt condolences on the passing of your Father. I lost mine 6 months before my wedding in 2001 and lost my Mother in 1994 so I know what you're going through.

Do yourself a favor, let your family be there for you, and in turn, be there for them. These things can either pull a family apart or bring it closer than ever.

I'm not assuming anything, it's just that I know of what I speak and plus I haven't had any contact with you for over 20 years so you can take the advice or not.

Just know that I'm sympathetic

to your situation and as bad as it feels, with time it will get better.

You and your family are in my prayers.

Sincerely,

Matt Weintraub

To the family of Jim Glaser:



I knew Jim during his days as a student at DePaul University. Jim pledged the fraternity to which I belonged, Alpha Beta Gamma. Jim was my pledge son. Although I have not been in contact with Jim for many years, I do have pleasant memories of our days together at DePaul. I wish to extend my sincere sympathy on his passing.
