Bar-Ilan University and the Global Board of Trustees of Bar-llan
are deeply saddened by the passing of
Dr. Mordecai (“Morty") Katz
Previous Chairman of the Board of Trustees, longstanding board member and pillar of the university.
Morty, together with his wife, Dr. Monique Katz, were long term, staunch pillars of our University,
and initiated many important capital and academic projects at Bar-llan. During his tenure as Chairman,
the University saw unprecedented growth and achievements.
Morty's personal ideals and steadfast commitment to Jewish education and values helped shape the very nature and identity of Bar-llan University. He leaves a lasting legacy of Chessed and Philanthropy globally,
and his leadership will be sorely missed.
The extended Bar-llan family sends heartfelt condolences to Dr. Monique Katz and children,
Dr. Rachel Katz (Dr. Robert Sidlow), Michael Katz (Elissa), Gail Katz (Mayer Bick),
and Debra Katz (Yechiel Newman) and grandchildren.
May they be comforted among the mourners of Zion and Jerusalem.
