More Sad News

It seems that each new semester makes us the bearer of bad news. This summer former department Chair Clare Krukenberg passed away at his home in Charleston. Clare was an avid Bridge player and competed in tournaments throughout the Midwest. He was a soccer referee at the high school and youth levels for many years.

He was generous with his time with students and faculty and was very popular as a teacher and academic adviser. He loved to go fishing in the North Country each summer with a close group of friends. He was a supporter of local drama and enjoyed sponsoring trips to The Little Theater on the Square in Sullivan.
