It is with heavy hearts that we tell you that Fred Grimsey, our Founder and President, has passed away. Fred was an inspiration to all whom he encountered. He is already greatly missed. We know he is sailing on his Dalliance somewhere...
may he have Fair Winds and Following Seas!
A Celebration of Fred's Life will be held at 4pm Sunday, June 11 in the Blaustein Humanities Center at Connecticut College. In lieu of flowers, please consider contributing to STR-STH by clicking here.
