I have known the Suisman family since childhood. Michsel's father and my father, Saul Seidman, were roommates at Yale with two other Hartford friends, Edward Pomeranz and Milton Friedman. My father introduced Eddie Suisman to his beloved wife. Etta, who was also a classmate of my father's at Hartford Public High School.
Miichael Suisman was a devoted public servant, combining an outstanding business career, with one of unending charitable and community service.
father imtroduced Eddie to his belove wife whom my dad knew as they were classmates at Hartford Public High School.He lived a long, varied and productive life. My wife, Susan, and I extend our heartfelt sympathies to the entire Suisman family with whom we go back so many years.
Michael Suisman's life was indeed "For a Blessing'

Elsa, My deepest sympathy on the loss of your husband. Those of us who have resided in the area for a long time know his footprints are embedded in the foundation of numerous institutions with which he was affiliated, and his name will long be remembered for having made the greater Hartford community a much better place for so many.

My heartfelt condolences to the Suisman family. My grandparents and my parents enjoyed long and close friendships with the Suisman families, and had such great respect for all of Michael's exceptional contributions to the arts and to the Hartford area in particular. May his memory be a blessing.

Dear Micheal.
You are one of my hero's and go to know so well when you spent six months at my office after selling your business. You set the best example of real charitable giving when you started the Jewish Community Foundation, Wallenberg Society at the Federation, Your great work at the Wadsworth and the Bushnell, Hartford Foundation and so many other charities. Your Grandparents, the famous Sarah P.Suisman, who exemplified Jewish giving, Your grandfather, Michael, Your parents Ed and Etta, both active at the Federation and Mt. Sinai and your great wife Elsa. What a family. You set the mark for all of us.

We were sad to hear about Michael's passing, especially after talking about him with Richard so recently.
Michael was an exemplary leader, expecting from others the same sense of obligation he felt to care for community.
When Michael creating the Wallenberg Society for leadership gifts at the Jewish Federation, his enthusiasm matched his generous spirit and it gave the campaign a much needed lift. We will miss him, Cindy Chazan and Jay Leipzig.
