Colleagues,
I am sorry to tell you of the passing of Carter Riley Brown, 19,
a first-year
student enrolled in the Academy of Culinary Arts and a resident
of the
Punxsutawney Living Center.
Carter, of Mercersburg, Pa. died Sunday as a result of an auto
accident in
Huntingdon.
Carter's family will hold a Celebration of Life in his honor at
their home,
12440 Carson Court, Mercersburg, on Saturday, April 21 at 3:00
p.m.
The death of someone you knew can evoke strong feelings. The
best way to cope
is to talk to your closest friends, family members, or trusted
teachers. There
are people among us who have experienced similar events, and
they are often
more than willing to help others going through difficult
circumstances.
Students
who would
like to speak with a counselor may call 724-357-2621 or visit the Counseling Center in the Center
for Health and
Well-Being, Suites on Maple East. Persons may also contact the
Council on
Spiritual and Religious Life for support at spiritual-life@IUP.edu.
Sincerely,
Michael Driscoll
President
