Jay Atman Obituary, Death – There have been a lot of people in my life who have left an impression on who I am now and helped shape who I am, but there have only been a small handful of those people who have actually changed the direction that my life has gone in. Those people have had an impact on who I am today and have helped shape who I am. If it weren’t for Jay Atman, I never would have given engineering a second thought; in fact, I never would have thought about it at all.
I owe everything to him. He inspired me to believe the best of myself, to be a critical thinker, to persevere in the face of a challenge that appeared to be insurmountable, to ask for assistance when I was unable to get through something on my own, and to include other people in my accomplishments when I was the first to reach the peak. He was my driving force. over the whole of a physics class, in spite of the fact that the subject matter covered a great deal more than a handful of different physics topics. Mr. Atman, you will be much missed by all of us. You are not going to be forgotten any time in the near future. The drive and determination that you inspired in other people will be with them for the rest of their life.
