Mr. Littman spent more than twenty-two years in public service as a Councilman and Vice-Mayor of the City of North Miami Beach. His service to the community extended beyond City Hall. For more than twenty-three years he served as Executive Director of Stop Hunger Incorporated, feeding over 27,000 low income families and individuals in Miami-Dade, Broward and Palm Beach counties monthly. His support of the arts was a driving force behind the North Miami Beach Arts Theater, which in 2004, was renamed the Julius Littman Performing Arts Theater. In addition to serving his community, Mr. Littman also served his country as a Captain in the United States Air Force in World War II. Mr. Littman was born in South River, New Jersey, on May 2, 1923. He is survived by his long time companion, Tatyana Kats; daughter Phyllis Diskin and her husband Jonathan; sons, Paul and Gregory; grandchildren Jack, Harrison, Jeremy, Gabriel and Olivia. Please join me in honoring the late Mr. Julius Littman for his commitment, dedication and service to our community and our country. [[Page E1025]] ____________________
