Obituary: The Jewish Chronicle, Aug 19 1927, page 8.
'MR. JOHN LIPETZ (Glasgow). By the death of Mr. John Lipetz, Glasgow Jewry has been bereft of a most valued and respected communal figure. He resided in this country for over forty years, and was highly esteemed by Jew and Gentile alike on account of his sterling character and integrity of purpose. For several years Mr. Lipetz served on the Council of the South Portland Street Synagogue, and although he was time and again asked to become President, his natural modesty made him refuse that office. He was also a great supporter of the Glasgow Talmud Torah. The deceased, coming from a Rabbinical stock, always revered genuine learning and piety; and the Glasgow Jewish community will miss him indeed. Mr. Lipetz, whose wife predeceased him over three years ago, leaves a son Dr. I. H, Lipetz, M.D., and five daughters, to whom general and heartfelt sympathy is extended. - From the Rev. D. JACOBS.' https://www.myheritage.com/research/record-10148-68222/the-jewish-c...
