Since
the passing of Bill Joseph earlier this week, several people have asked
how they could make a gift to the College in his memory. As many of
you know, Bill's loyal and valuable tenure at the College spanned over
40 years.
Bill
arrived at Virginia Wesleyan as our first business manager in September
1966. Beginning as a two-person operation, the business office grew
with the College, and Bill’s responsibilities ranged from handling
student accounts, purchasing supplies, and arranging campus signage to
negotiating with lending banks, exterminator companies and federal OSHA
officials. He oversaw the operations of
food services, the bookstore (run for a short time by his wife, Faye),
other auxiliary services, and the expanding physical plant.
Memorial
gifts may be made to the Bill Joseph Book Fund (that he created and
supported during his lifetime) at Virginia Wesleyan's Hofheimer Library. The Joseph family will be notified of gifts received in his memory.
