Condolences to Gordon Gee

Our Class of '78 sends its special condolences to former Chancellor Gee, whose physician daughter Rebekah and son-in-law Dr. Allan Moore were seriously injured on July 12 while riding a Vespa which collided with an SUV in Lower Merion Township in suburban Philadelphia one month ago.

Moore, a graduate of U. Va. and Vanderbilt Medical School, whom Gee called the "son he never had", eventually died of his injuries on July 24 at the Hospital of the University of Pennsylvania in Philadelphia.

Allan Moore and Rebakah Gee, an obstetrician, met while residents at Massachusetts General Hospital in Boston, and married in 2006. Rebekah Gee now faces several months of rehabilitation at Ohio State University Hospital. As you all may remember, Chancellor Gee returned to Ohio State as President one year ago.
