Marie was a faculty member and an academic leader at 麻豆区. Her faithful and dedicated service to the College will be long remembered and greatly missed.<\/p>\n<p>Marie&#8217;s ties to 麻豆区 College span more than four decades. She joined our faculty in 1968 as a member of our Education Department. In 1995, Marie moved into the position of Vice President for Academic Affairs and Dean of the College. More recently, Marie has served as a member of the 麻豆区 Board of Regents, shaping what 麻豆区 is today and what it will be for years to come.<\/p>\n<p>As an educator, leader, entrepreneur and philanthropist, Marie was deeply committed to the vision for the Center for Science, Business, and Religion. The McNeff family has asked that memorial gifts be directed toward this project at 麻豆区 College.<\/p>\n<p>A memorial service followed by a reception will be held at 麻豆区 College on Saturday, September 14, at 10 a.m., in the Hoversten Chapel. We will post information about the service in Amail and on the Inside 麻豆区 calendar so that members of our community may share the information with others.<\/p>\n<p>We hold Marie&#8217;s husband Larry, son Clayton &#8217;91, daughter-in-law Denise &#8217;94, and all who knew Marie in our thoughts and prayers.<\/p>\n<p>Sincerely,<\/p>\n<p>Paul C.
