I am sorry to pass along the sad news that Paul Hanley passed away over the
weekend. I know that many of you had come to know Paul over the years and
enjoyed taking classes with him. I was deeply saddened to learn this news. I
regret sharing this information in an email but I thought it would be
important to let our community know in advance of the memorial mass this
Friday.



Paul was a UMA Liberal Studies BA degree student. Paul was wonderfully
passionate about learning and  will be deeply missed as a strong, caring
presence at our center.
