Remembering Halper

By Anne Skove, Esq.

Earlier we posted that W&L Law professor Louise Halper passed away unexpectedly. For those who missed the Halper family memorial last spring, the law school will hold a memorial service in Lexington. This event is sure to be a healing moment for the law school community, which always manages to come together in difficult times.

From W&L Law:

Dear Alumni,

Earlier this summer, the law school suffered a devastating loss when our colleague, teacher and friend, Louise Halper, Professor of Law and Director of the Frances Lewis Law Center, died suddenly following surgery.

On Friday, October 3, the law school will celebrate the life of Professor Halper. The memorial service will be held from 9:00 to 10:15 a.m. in the Millhiser Moot Court Room in Sydney Lewis Hall. The service will be preceded at 8:00 a.m. by a continental breakfast in the Moot Court lobby.

For information about the service, please contact Joan Shaughnessy, (540) 458-8512 or shaughnessyj@wlu.edu.
