Statement by Chancellor Robert Hemenway on the death of longtime employee Randy Russell

On behalf of the university, I want to extend my deepest sympathy to the family and friends of Randy Russell, who died yesterday. Randy was a supervisor in landscape maintenance who had worked with the university for all of his professional work life of 21 years. Our hearts go out to Jeannie, his wife, who is an employee of Student Housing, and to his children.
