The following is Lhr- tribute delivered by Morris !• Jacobs, at the funeral .sn vic( for Di. Philip Slier on*""™ Friday, October 25. Mr. Jacobs is a longtime friend of the Slier family and a past president of the O m a h a Jewish Federation. (A World - Herald editorial, a tnb ute to Dr. Shcr, is reprinted on page 4.) M. Jacobs Thirteen years ago—almost to the day—I had the privilege of speaking for our community at a city-wide dinner honoring Dr. Philip Slier. It was his 7;")th birthday. As I related numerous of his hunu.iiitarian activities, his communal contributions, and c i v i c incidents in his life, he whispered to me—and not too softly—"You have the wrong man." His eyes twinkled. Even on that occasion he could not suppress his humor of which he had m n c h and which served him well at times. We gathered then —i:t years ago—to express to this outstanding gentleman the appreciation of a grateful community; to thank him for his limitless hours of public service; to thank him for his unselfish leadership and his personal sacrifices — all made so that all of us could lead happier, more contented, more fruitful lives. T o d a y , we are assembled here in the 'same building—in the very same room—to again pay tribute to this extraordinary individual: to give again expression of our gratitude to him for all that he has done for us; to bid fond farewell to him on his journey from us. But-
O.MAH.I,
Ion;; lon'j after he is gone from our midst, we will remember, and we will recall his good deeds, his words of wisdom, and his ingenuity and his inspiration which set a pattern that made of our city the ideal Jewish community of our country—-and furnished to the world some of its top Jewish leadership. Many men are honored by their fellow citizens lor their fine contributions in founding, expanding or carrying forward a single effort in which they iiave concentrated all of their energies, time and support. This is laudable. But, Dr. Slier had the power of concentration; he had the heart and the desire and the great Herculean mental might rind energy which enabled him to concentrate on numerous communal and civic activities— every one of them important— and—most important—in every one of them, he continued his interest and support year, after year, after year. To recount the civic works of our dear friend is to relate the history of Omaha Jewry since l!l():i when ho first took up residence in our city. 1 remember,-in my youth as a newsie, his interest in young people. I remember his keen interest in the old YMHA, the forerunner of our present Jewish Community Center of which lie v/as one of the i n s p i r e d f o u n d e r s . Even in his own struggling years, he took time out for important youth work. Later, as a newspaper reporter, I watched him week after week in the bitter cold of winter and in the hottest of our .summer, sitting through weekly sessions of our juvenile court. It was his inspirational leadership which helped bring about this exclusive court for youth-quite a

revolutionary idea at the time. The juvenile court judges constantly called on him for guidance. His heart and his thinking were always concentrated on children of misfortune; to those seemingly less able to adjust to the mandates of our society, and whose young minds frequently were filled with confusion . . . for them and with them lie toiled and counseled and persevered, As a result: Many good citizens in our midst today benefited in their youth from Dr. Sher's inspirational words of advice; his helping hand, his encouragement, and his guidance. Because of his intense interest in all of his fellowman, long, long before anyone ever heard the expression, "Bi-Racial Committee," Dr. Slier furnished annual money awards to the University of Omaha for th(; best student essays on the subject: '•Racial and Religious Mutual Respect." His first award was given in" liJ.'M — nearly thirty years ago. Just consider the vision and the depth of the man — encouraging our youth to think and write about mutual respect for race and religion— more than a quarter of a century ahead of'our time. Yes, his humanitarian activities were legion. He was one of the organizers of our Jewish Philanthropies and our original Jewish Welfare Federation. He served twice as president of the Federation and our Community Center, and has been continuously elected honorary president of our Federation for better than thirty years. Dr. Slier was the founder of the Free Loan Society which during its time proved of valuable assistance to persons who needed temporary financial assistance, f happened to be one
who k n o w a from experience, and appreciates to the fullest what this fine humanitarian activity has meant to persons who had no other place to go for such assistance and support! Also I recall vividly the time I spoke to a group concerning plans for launching a Jewish Home for the Aged in Omaha. We were considering a large home on West Dodge, which we planned to remodel. Dr. Slier heaped shame on us and told.us nothing but a new home — a h o m e that was scientifically laid out-—was good enough for our aged. He said we must furnish to our senior citizens a residence in which to live rather than a place in which to die. Simulated and inspired by him. we created this home of which we are all justly proud and we justly honored him by calling it the "Dr. Philip Slier Home for the Aged." Small in stature—never robust—yet Dr. Slier had energy and intellect of gigantic proportions. F r e q u e n 11 y, he overwhelmed us with his startling new ideas and irritated us with his i m p a t i e n c e because we didn't act quick enough, but he never looked back. He constantly moved forward with stimulating programming for a better community. Too numerous are his other contributions for me to relate. He was a scholar and an author; he was interested in p r i s o n work; he was a builder of hospitals; he was all that a good man should be. In 1945. when Dr. Slier was honored by our community on his 70th birthday, a testimonial scroll was presented to him. The w o r d s , beautifully and truly penned by Louis Lipp, summarize the greatness of the man to
whom v/e pay tribute today. The Dr. Slier testimonial scroll read: "To a faithful and fearless champion of all that is good; to a constructive and farsigiiicd leader; to a mini who lut»> made Jewish living a privilege and not a problem; to a scholar who dwells in the Tents of the Tornh; to a pliysisician whose warmth of heart and b r e a d t h of spirit has brought health and comfort to the .sick, to the poor, and to tin' needy. To one who in his life testifies that the noblest work of God is a good man." While we all know that this testimonial declaration is completely accurate, it is still wholly inadequate either to express our gratitude or to comprehend the scope and significance of his. endeavors. Posterity will view with pride the contributions of this gentle architect of humanity. They will know that he helped chart the course and guide the first steps of a unified Jewish community. They will be touched with its grandeur and their travel will be lighter and their life will be fuller because of his influence. For all, at some time, we must unfortunately say farewell. So, to you, dear Doctor, we say: Goodbye dear friend; goodbye outstanding humanitarian; goodbye fine c i t i z e n of sympathetic understanding and greatness of heart. Your fellow c i t i z e n s shall be profoundly grateful to you, always. Your deeds shall continue to set examples for all that follow in your footsteps. Your son David and your grandson Michaelhave been carrying forward and will continue to carry forward their heritage. God bless you and keep you.
