Fifty-six of our 1977 classmates are known to have passed away so far. If you know of other classmates who have died, please email Kathy Kaegel Bernard at kathy @ wiseru.com. If possible, include a link to the person's obituary or the year that he or she died. Eventually, we will include class photos of each deceased classmate on this page and in an In Memoriam video at the 50th reunion.
