Good afternoon, it is with sadness that I share the news that Donald Estep ’70 passed away January 18, 2024. Don was in the Print Shop. He was on the Track team and a member of the Rifle Club. Following is his obituary. Don’s sister’s Pat Estep Aseltyne ’70 and Barb Estep Socks ’72 (deceased 10/2/2001) also attended SSVC. I am sorry I don’t have any contact information for Patti. If anyone does, please share with me so we can send our condolences to her.
