Recent Obituaries

If you see the obituary of a brother that you knew personally and were planning to give money to MIT this year anyway, you may want to consider giving it in memory of that brother. If you choose to do that, the alumni association (which helps to keep us informed when it learns of our alumni passings) has asked that you send it to the attention of Ms. Bonny Kellerman, MIT Director of Memorial Gifts, 600 Memorial Drive, MIT Room W98-516, Cambridge, MA 02139. You can still earmark it for the IRDF or any other MIT fund that you wish, and it will still count toward your class gift and serve to honor your brother.

Obituaries are reprinted here from various sources, including newspapers and MIT publications. They are listed by the date we received notification, starting with the most recent. To share your memories with other brothers, log in above to access the brothers-only section of the site.
