More on our colleague Professor Philip Frickey

This note was posted by the Dean:

"Our Friend and Colleague Phil Frickey

Colleagues,

Our beloved Phil Frickey, the Alexander F. and Mary T. Morrison Professor of Law, died this morning. Mary Ann wrote to say that there will be a memorial service in his Kansas hometown, and we will also do something here at Boalt when the community reassembles in August. I'll share an obituary with you as soon as we have it ready. Mary Ann asks that in lieu of flowers donations be directed to the scholarship fund we've established, the details of which will be included in the obituary.

As I said at a recent party to celebrate his years of service at Berkeley, Phil's legacy at Boalt puts him in our pantheon after only a single decade. Harder to measure are the extraordinary gifts he gave us in contributions of the mind and heart. Holes that will never be filled. "
