GELLMAN Stuart B. Gellman, 88, an author, public rela-
tions consultant and advocate of victims'
rights, died April 3 at home and at peace. He
built an early career in his native Philadelphia,
spent his middle years in Tucson and moved
back east to reunite with a woman he loved.

Gellman discovered a knack for journalism at
Germantown High School, where he was
sports editor of the newspaper and stringer
for The Evening Bulletin. After graduation he
worked weekends on the Bulletin's rewrite
desk, became front-page and sports editor of
the Germantown Courier in 1951, and
mustered into the Army in 1953. After milit-
ary service in Japan, Gellman enrolled at
Rider College, rose to editor of the Rider
News and won the Ferris Prize for finest
journalism student. He graduated in 1957,
covered the invention of the transistor for
Fairchild Publications and then joined the In-
ternational Resistance Company in 1959 as
Public Relations Director. From 1962 to 1974
he founded and ran Stuart Gellman Asso-
ciates, a financial public relations agency. For
several golden summers at Camp Rockhill,
he was a beloved staff leader by day and the
terrifying Green Slime monster by night. In
1978, Gellman moved to Tucson for a life of
service. There he devoted hundreds of volun-
teer hours each year to give practical aid and
comfort to victims of crime and natural dis-
asters. He was an Advocate with the Pima
County Victim Witness Program from 1981
to 1993, where he co-founded the Critical In-
cident Debriefing Team and was active in
passage of the Arizona Victim Rights Act. His
work with crime victims was featured in Life
Magazine (April 1984) and in Reader's Di-
gest (Feb. 1985). He served on the local
Board of Directors of MADD and as mental
health chair of Tucson's Red Cross chapter,
receiving its Community Relations award in
2000. In the 1990s and 2000s he was a Pima
County steering committee member of the
National Disaster Medical System, the South-
ern Arizona DUI Task Force, Mental Health li-
aison for the Tucson Airport Authority Crisis
Response Team and volunteer chaplain at
University Medical Center. He converted his
large home into a popular and eccentric bed
and breakfast, forming lasting friendships
with many guests. Gellman was a frequent
writer, speaker and trainer on issues of vic-
timology, loss, grief and life choices. His op-
ed articles appeared in the Arizona Daily Star,
Tucson Citizen and Arizona Jewish Post.

Twice he was nominated for a Jefferson
Award for Public Service. In 1990, Gellman
published a book called "COPS: The Men and
Women Behind the Badge," which followed a
cohort of Tucson police cadets through train-
ing and their first year as sworn officers of
the law. He made time to chronicle his own
family history through more than 1,000 let-
ters, oral histories, photos, film clips and
videos encompassing six generations. He
also taped interviews with his grandchildren
for many years. Gellman returned to his Phil-
adelphia roots in 2009 to rekindle a relation-
ship with an old flame, Mimi Kirk, who be-
came his loving companion for the rest of his
days. He took up volunteering with the Ger-
mantown-based Northwest Victim Services.

Gellman is survived by three children from
his first marriage to Marcia Jacobs: Barton
Gellman (Dafna Linzer), Alan Gellman (Ar-
lene Zuckerberg) and Sheri Throlson (Brad
Throlson); eight grandchildren (Abigail, Aron,
Benjamin, Lily, Megan, Micah, Mira and
Nicole); sister Barbara Kates; niece Mimi
Kates; nephew Philip Kates (Pamela Kates);
and a lifetime of special and loyal friends, es-
pecially Mimi Kirk, whose love spanned more
than 40 years.

LANDAU Myron “Mike” Landau passed away peacefully on March 29,
2020 at the age of 80. While his last few years were difficult due
to illness, his life was marked by many pleasures, including his
loving family, true friendships, varied interests and a joy and
contentment with the world around him. He will be missed by
many, but never forgotten. Mike was born in Philadelphia to
Manfred and Ruth Landau on September 11, 1939. He grew up
in Wynnefield and Penn Valley where he graduated from Lower
Merion High School. He graduated from Penn State University in
1961. For over 40 years, Mike worked in the banking industry,
starting his career at PNB. In his spare time, he was an avid
gardener and could often be found tending to his beautiful rose
garden. He appreciated the little things in life and literally wanted
people to stop and smell the roses. He also loved to travel and
experience different cultures, which he did throughout many
countries around the world. In his spare time, he liked to play
golf with his friends and appreciate new wines and microbrews.

He was a big fan of Philadelphia sports and history and would re-
count our institutions from Municipal (JFK) Stadium to the Bul-
letin newspaper to Bond bread. Known for his ability to connect
with people and be a great listener, Mike remembered the details
of people’s lives and their families. When he saw the person
again, he would recount their stories and ask about their family
by name. He was kind and supportive and always lifted people up
with words of encouragement and kindness. He was a good
friend and a wonderful father who loved his family above all else.

Even in his ailing years, his spirit lifted up his family, as cap-
tured in a recent Inquirer article. Mike was a loving father of
Richard Landau (Kate Jacoby), Ruthellen “Rue” Landau (Kerry
Smith), and Suzanne Landau (Robert Auritt); devoted husband of
Dorothy “Dotsy” Landau (nee Witz); cherished grandfather of
Ethan, Zara, Eli, and Rio; and loving brother of Ellis Landau
(Yvette Landau). He is further survived by nieces and nephews,
other relatives and friends. Although he struggled in his later
years with Corticobasal Syndrome, a rare neurological disease,
he handled his illness with dignity and continued to be a champi-
on for his children and grandchildren until the end.
