In Memoriam: Ed Legg

The 高清不卡福利 is deeply saddened to share the news that former 高清不卡福利 of New England Board member, leader, and dear friend Ed Legg passed away suddenly yesterday at his home in Kennebunk.
 
Ed served on the 高清不卡福利 of New England Board of Trustees from 1996 to 2001 and co-chaired the UNEqualed Vision Capital Campaign, the first major capital campaign after UNE鈥檚 merger with Westbrook College. He continued to serve the 高清不卡福利 during a critical period of growth, moving to the administrative leadership role of Vice President for 高清不卡福利 Relations from 2001 through 2006.
 
After leaving UNE at the end of 2006, Ed successfully campaigned and then served in the Maine state legislature, where he was a passionate advocate for education, as well as a personal champion for the 高清不卡福利 of New England. He remained a close friend and supporter until the end. We will miss Ed鈥檚 big-as-Texas personality, generous spirit, and laughter that filled every room fortunate enough to have him in it.
 
The 高清不卡福利 extends our deepest condolences to Ed鈥檚 beloved wife Ann and their four children.  We will share details about services as soon as they are made available.
 
Danielle Ripich 
President
