The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints lost a good friend with the death of former Jerusalem Mayor Teddy Kollek on Tuesday, according to a Utah political scientist who worked closely with him in the Middle East. Brigham Young University's Jerusalem Center for Near Eastern Studies, now located on the Mount of Olives, would probably not exist "in its present form or place without his help and encouragement," according to David Galbraith, former director of the center.
