* Saying goodbye to Jules Tygiel

August 15, 2008

Friends of the late Jules Tygiel will pay tribute to him at a memorial service on Saturday, Sept. 6. Details follow, as per an e-mail to the SABR list-serve group from Dick Crapeau:

I know that there are a number of people on this list who knew Jules and/or his work. I pass these messages concerning a memorial service for him at San Francisco State University. The first message is from the university and the second from Jules’ family.

Dick Crepeau

The service will be at San Francisco State, in the Seven Hills conference Center, on Sept. 6, beginning at 2:00. Everyone is warmly invited to attend. For those who can’t attend in person, but who would like to remember something about Jules, I am gathering anecdotes, tributes, photos, etc. for a scrapbook and they can be sent to me at

SFSU,
1600 Holloway,
San Francisco, CA 94132
or to barbaral@sfsu.edu

Luise’s invitation is as follows:

Dear Friends and Family:

It is hard to find the right voice to call the gathering to celebrate Jules’ life. He was uncomfortable with this sort of thing. But Charlie, Sam and I would like to invite you to join us and his colleagues on Saturday, September 6, to celebrate his presence among us. There will be an opportunity to share a brief memory or story of your time with him. We will gather at the Seven Hills Conference Center at San Francisco State University at 2:00 pm and spend a few hours together.

There will be a reception following so we can chat and swap thoughts about Jules.

It would be great if you could email qk@sfsu.edu to let us know if you can come and how many there will be. Feel free to invite others who might like to join us.

Everyone is welcome, regardless of whether we have an RSVP. For those of you from out of town, we will be delighted if you wish to come but don’t want you to feel compelled to be here. In the weeks and months ahead we hope to find our way to you.
