Colleagues,

I share with you the sad news that Patricia Anne “Pat” Touchett, a former UW-Milwaukee academic staff member, passed away on August 30, 2020. Pat received her bachelor’s degree from Marquette University and her master’s degree from Missouri University, both in Mathematics.  She joined UW-Milwaukee in 1982, beginning as a Math instructor. She then became a coordinator in what was, at the time, the Tutoring and Academic Resource Center and later, Panther Academic Support Services.  Pat retired from UWM in 2003.

Pat was a lifelong volunteer, both at UWM and for many community organizations. A colleague shared that Pat leaves behind a great legacy of service and of friendship. For additional information, please see Pat’s obituary online. Our condolences to Pat’s family and to the many others whose lives she touched.

Take care,

Johannes
