If you don’t see your name on the list, have included Stanford in your estate plan but not yet let us know, and/or believe you should be included as a member because of a future gift in your estate plans, please contact the Office of Planned Giving.

In memory of those we lost this year

Doug Brown, ’59, Al Lauer, ’59, and John Lillie, ’59 paid tribute to Barbara Herrmann Hart, ’59.

Alan Fox, ’64
Our dear friend, classmate and campaign co-chair, Alan Fox, has passed away. Alan loved Stanford and was excited to be celebrating reunion this year. He eagerly said yes to supporting the campaign effort and this was his first year in this role. We are grateful to Alan for sharing his time, talent, and treasure. Alan will be missed by many.

Barbara Herrmann Hart, ’59
Our dear friend, classmate and campaign co-signer, Barbara Herrmann Hart, passed away in July. A true Stanford citizen, Barbara generously volunteered in countless roles for more than 50 years. As a testament to Barbara’s dedication to service, she was given the Golden Spike Award, in 2003, for her distinguished volunteer efforts. In addition to volunteering, Barbara was a loyal supporter of undergraduate education, supporting financial aid through gifts to The Stanford Fund.
