David Hanson

[ROBERT A ROTHSTEIN]

        It once again falls to me to report the death of a dear
colleague and friend, David Hanson, who succumbed to cancer earlier
this week.  David was an enthusiastic Lipsonite and, like his mentor,
a gifted teacher of Russian.  He knew his way around language labs and
computers better than most of us.  He will be remembered by his students
at Brandeis and Colby as a dedicated and caring teacher.  His wife Pat
and two daughters have lost a loving husband and father; many of us
will feel the loss of a devoted friend and a fine human being.
