In Memory of Liz Ketterer

It is with great sadness that the English department announces that our PTI and Visiting Professor Lizz Ketterer
passed away last Saturday.  Memorial services will be held in New Jersey and Stratford upon Avon, where she had many friends and colleagues. 

Should you wish to express your condolences, the family has asked that in lieu of flowers donations be made to the Juvenile Diabetes Foundation.
 
She was a lovely, vibrant colleague --she will be sorely missed.

    Lizz is one of the brightest memories of Stratford that I will forever hold dear.

  3. Although she was only my instructor for a short time, I could tell she was a woman who deeply loved her work and cared for her students. She will be missed.

  4. A great tragedy. Shakespearean in every nature, and her passing is a true loss to the English community.

  5. At least she gets to be with the Bard now. I only had her for a couple of weeks but in that time she became my favorite teacher.

  6. To the person asking for more information, could you BE more insensitive? Really.

  7. I knew Liz for a short time as my Early Shakespearean teacher she was a bright gifted woman who loved her work. She put so much passion into everything she did and made my time in her class truly uplifting. To her family and friends my thoughts and prayers are with you. <3

  8. This news was great shock and I only found out from the campus paper in a small graph for the letter to the editor. I had her just last semester and am still grateful for her course on gender roles in literature. I'm surprised and disappointed the Daily Lobo didn't give her more of a remembrance. She truly was a blissful spirit, and she had a positive impact in my education. Many blessings to her family.
