Dear University Family, It is with great sadness that we share with you the loss of a member of the UNI family: Paul Meyermann, assistant director of operations & planning for UNI's Physical Plant. Paul's work with the university and community will be impactful for many years to come. During his 28 years at UNI, Paul was able to share with us his keen insight into landscaping and nature. The physical look of our campus is a result of his vision and dedication. For those of you that knew Paul personally, I hope you remember his great personality, wonderful smile and warm demeanor. Paul is survived by his wife, son, one brother and one sister. The university will send condolences to the family. Services will be at 10:30 a.m., Saturday, Dec. 28, at Nazareth Lutheran Church in Cedar Falls. Memorials may be directed to Cedar Valley Hospice. Please keep Paul's loved ones in your thoughts as they move through this difficult time.
