Katherine,

I am truly sad to learn of Florence's passing.  I had the pleasure of meeting her at the 2010 ARLIS Conference in Boston.  Needless to say, she left an impression on me and we always talked about visiting each other's institutions.  Alas, that never happened.  She will be remembered.

Mario

It is with great sadness we share with you that our dear friend and colleague Florence Thorp died early on October 3rd at her parent’s home in Vernon Center, NY.  Florence joined MICA in July, 2001 as Director of the Media Resources Collection. She was promoted in June, 2009 to Director of the Decker Library when the Library and Media Resources were merged into a single department. Florence had previously worked in visual resources at her alma mater, Hartwick College in Oneonta, NY.


Florence courageously battled pancreatic cancer over the past year. She was one of the best of us, a consummate professional, always with a smile and a wonderfully mischievous sense of humor. She will be tremendously missed by all who had the pleasure of knowing her.

 

A memorial gathering will be held at MICA's Decker Library on Thursday, October 6, at 1:00 - 2:30 p.m. Anyone in the area is welcome to join us. The Decker Library is located in the Bunting Building at 1401 W. Mount Royal Avenue, Baltimore, MD 21217. Here is a link to map and directions from MICA's website: http://www.mica.edu/Maps_and_Directions.html


For those in the region of New York State, services for Florence will be in Vernon Center, NY, also on Thursday, October 6. A full obituary with details about the services can be found at the following link to the Utica Observer-Dispatch:
