(The following is from Yvette Fallandy.)
A veteran SSU faculty member died last Wednesday, the 8th of March. Ray Lemieux, Professor of Foreign Languages emeritus, 1970-90, was not active in faculty affairs, but he was an exemplary professor of French—abidingly appreciated by both his students and colleagues (He married one of his students.) Until a few years ago he and his wife, Hilde, lived in Santa Rosa before moving to Grass Valley to be with Hilde’s children. Ray succumbed to cancer in a quiet death at home in Rough and Ready, CA. For all of those of us who cherish Ray Lemieux, his death is a grievous loss indeed.
