Dear Alpha Zeta Brothers and Spouses,
In a letter received today from Libbie Linvill I learned that brother Don “Sweepy” Linvill died on August 16, 2008. He apparently became ill with pancreatitis in April. Except for ten days at home, he spent most of the time since then in hospitals and nursing homes.
Don was a class of 1950 graduate in Agronomy and was an active member of the Ag Student Council. Always “upbeat,” he kept the brothers at the Alpha Zeta house in cheerful spirits with his humor and antics.
I phoned Libbie to extend an expression of sympathy from the brothers of Alpha Zeta. She suggested that those so inclined could send memorial tribute gifts to the Alpha Zeta Charitable Trust for scholarships. Therefore, on behalf of the Class of 1950 and friends, I have sent $100.00 to the Trust in Don’s memory from our Newsletter Fund.
Those wishing to make individual contributions should make checks payable to the Alpha Zeta Charitable Trust and mail them to: Eric Bergstom
1336 Harris Street
State College, PA 16802
Our deepest sympathy is expressed to Don’s family.
AZever,
Jim Case
