anaba: Morris Yarowsky

Monday, April 17, 2006

Someone told me today that recently retired VCU professor Morris Yarowsky passed away last week.

Dennis Matthews said...: hey martin,
i received an email from Roth about last week, it was actually about 3 weeks ago. Very sad, he will be missed most definately. He went pretty quickly from what I hear, he had been sick for a little while. Let people know that they are preparing a book with drawings and memories and photos. The stuff can be dropped off to Roth at his office or they can email rroth@vcu.edu for more info.
