Honoring our own
Campus to remember those who died in 2008-09
24 August 2009
BERKELEY — On Thursday, Sept. 3, the Berkeley campus will gather for its eighth annual memorial service to honor those of its own who have died during the past year. Fifty members of the campus community — among them faculty and emeriti, visiting scholars, students, staff, and staff retirees — will be remembered at the ceremony, which will include a reading of the names of the deceased, vocal music, and poetry. It will be held from noon to 1 p.m. at the flagpole west of California Hall; all are welcome to attend.
The names of the deceased to be honored on Sept. 3 are listed below. If any member of the campus community who died in the past year has been inadvertently omitted, contact Maureen Kelly (maureenkelly@uhs.berkeley.edu) so that the list may be updated.
