E. Lester Munson ’63
Dear Illinois Wesleyan University,
I’m saddened to report to you the death of my friend and Illinois Wesleyan alum, E. Lester Munson. Les passed away March 14, 2013 from multiple myeloma while hospitalized at Rush-Copley in Aurora, Illinois. He had lived in Oswego. His family asked that I notify Wesleyan as it held a special place in his heart, having earned his undergraduate degree there . He went on to earn his J.D. from Loyola University School of Law (class of ’91) which is where we became friends.
Sincerely,
Suzanne Nyhan

On behalf of her family, I wanted to let you know that my mother, Patricia (Corley) Rausenberger, Illinois Wesleyan class of 1964, passed away on June 6, 2013. Below is a link to her obituary.
My mom talked a lot about her days at IWU, and as a member of Kappa Kappa Gamma, and the stories of her and her friends, and of course of meeting and dating my father. IWU was a big part of her life.
