Alumni

In Memoriam

We try our best to recognize the passing of all of our graduates and friends. When an alumnus dies, the Alumni & Communications Director sends a special letter to each of his classmates to share the news.
As it is very difficult to track the passing of those living outside of Central Ohio, we kindly ask for the help of families and friends s to keep us informed. Please help us by sending notifications to Louis J. Fabro '83, Director of Alumni Affairs & Communications, by e-mail (lfabro@scprep.org) or voicemail (380-209-2233).
