Geauga Campus Holds John Granny Memorial Patio Dedication

Join Â鶹¾«Ñ¡ Geauga Campus as it dedicates the newly installed John Granny Memorial Patio on Friday, October 22, from 1 â€“ 3 p.m. The ceremony will take place outdoors, near the patio, at the Geauga Campus in Burton.

John Granny was the Director of Business Affairs and Operations and worked enthusiastically for Â鶹¾«Ñ¡for more than 30 years. John unexpectedly passed away in July 2020. The Geauga Campus chose to memorialize John and his immense Â鶹¾«Ñ¡spirit by installing the John Granny Memorial Patio.

The patio will be a place for Granny’s friends and family as well as the campus community to gather, meet, or study. The outdoor space will have a hint of blue and gold (which John wore proudly) and will overlook the new Berkshire School complex – a project John enthusiastically supported.

Many Â鶹¾«Ñ¡current and former employees, community members, friends, and family sponsored personalized bricks that were installed in the patio’s walkways.

To join the event, RSVP by contacting Amy Murfello at amurfell@kent.edu or 440-834-3702.
