In memory of Jack Friedman - Elias Pater http://eliaspater.mypodcast.com/ Jack Friedman ( Elias Pater) was a cousin (my mother Miriam Freedman's first cousin). I visited him at Stella Maris in Haifa on a number of occasions,the first time I met him was in 1987. I always enjoyed my long philosophical conversations with him, in the quietness of his spartan rooms. His library still remains, his books placed on the shelves as he left them.

Before he passed away, El At the time I was visiting Elias, I was a yeshivah student near Jerusalem. Before he passed away, Elias gave me copies of many of his poems - some published, many never before published, old photostats on fragile newsprint, with notes on them in his handwriting, and blots of correction fluid. I always wanted to do something with them. He had recorded some of his poems for me on a cassette tape on one occasion - but to my regret, I can no longer find it, though I still remember the distinctive sound of his voice. I still have all the papers he gave me, and from time to time, I will read from them here, and so build up a collection of his poems online, as a memorial to him. ______________________________________________ Elias Friedman March 11 1916: Born in Cape Town, South Africa 1940: Volunteered as a doctor in the South African Medical Corp August 5, 1943: Baptised June 29 1953: Ordained to the priesthood, Cathedral of Avignon, France September 7 1954: Arrived at Mt.
