  • Grinnell, Ernest Doane (3/17/1994)

    Ernest Doane Grinnell III was not your ordinary Dartmouth student. Though he helped in the financial end of WDCR enough to end up on the 1969 Directorate with me, I never knew him until maybe Junior year, though I wonder why because it would seem so difficult not to know who he was. Yet one did certainly have to get to know Doane to appreciate him. Having just heard that he died on March 17, I guess I realize that appreciation was never enough.

    We do not have a published obituary. 

    Dear friends,” reads Oscar Romero's card, “it saddens me to report that Peter Komanecky died in Washington, D.C., of AIDS–related complications on August 30, 1992. He is survived by his lover Radames Lozada of Alexandria, VA, his parents, Paul and Eve Komanecky of Binghamton, N.Y., and brothers.”
