Remembering Bernie Killoran

Sally and Bernie Killoran

Word has been received that longtime UW-Green Bay friend and advocate Bernard O. Killoran passed away over the weekend.

For the past 25 years, Bernie, along with his wife, Sally, were passionate supporters of the Founders Association, Phoenix Fund, Theatre First Nighters, Weidner Center and the Phuture Phoenix program.

Former K-12 educators, Bernie and Sally chose to celebrate their 50th wedding anniversary in 2006 by creating the Sally and Bernie Killoran Education Scholarship to benefit students in the UW-Green Bay Education program who were doing outstanding work both in the classroom and in the community. In recognition of their support, Bernie and Sally received the University’s highest community honor, the Chancellor’s Award, in December of 2005.

There will be a full obituary in the Green Bay Press-Gazette.
