Dear Colleagues, I met Diane, Lyle's younger daughter, on December 30 - she stopped by Forney Hall to collect some pictures and other personal items. I understand the plan is that he will be cremated soon (according to his wishes), and the family will hold a memorial service mid to late January. She will inform me about the latter and I will let you know.

FYI......................... From: Boland, Stephanie E [mailto:seboland@purdue.edu] Sent: Tuesday, December 21, 2010 9:47 AM Subject: Pedestrians and drivers urged to use caution on icy sidewalks and roads Communications Announcement Purdue University - Physical Facilities TO: Building Deputies [Please distribute.] FR: Grounds Department DA: Tuesday, December 21, 2010 RE: Pedestrians and drivers urged to use caution on icy sidewalks and roads Due to snowy and freezing rains, many roads, sidewalks, and parking lots around campus have become icy. The Grounds Department has been working to apply an ice-reducing brine solution to roadways and remove snow. Sidewalks have been cleared of snow in most areas, however the freezing rain is causing extremely slick conditions that are difficult to remedy. Everyone is urged to use caution and proceed slowly, whether walking or driving, in these conditions. If you have questions or would like to report a treacherous area, please contact Grounds at 4-3087.
