I was saddened to hear Izzy Strier passed away. Izzy was a kind person and one of the best managers GCC ever had. My father, Mel Wintman, felt the same way. When a regional manager would complain about the huge volume of Mr. Strier’s VIP ticket sales, my father would tell them that they could take the same initiative and sell VIP tickets if they wished.
I had the privilege of working for Mr. Strier while he was manager of the Chestnut Hill Cinema. I will always remember him fondly. He was extremely good at dealing with customers as well as employees. I can still remember his favorite phrases, his mannerisms and his sense of humor. One could hear the glee in his voice as he announced over the loudspeaker on Saturday night, “Eh…All shows are sooold out!” He will be missed by all those who knew him.
