Chaminade University of Honolulu has suffered a great loss that is felt in the hearts of many in the community. Sue Wesselkamper, President of the college, passed away on January 3rd. Cancer has taken yet another victim and left a community and one of its educational icons to mourn.

While I didn’t know her personally, I knew her name. I’m feeling the twinges of sorrow from those community members who did know her. The Honolulu Advertiser published a wonderful article about Dr. Wesselkamper and the Catholic college she helped to revitalize.

Memorial services were held yesterday, January 10th. Aloha, Dr. Sue, may the Lord welcome you home.
