It is with great sadness that we have learned that our colleague and friend John Lovas passed away at his home on the morning of June 21, 2005. He served Foothill-De Anza for 40 years with distinction and passion as a professor of English. We will miss him immensely.
This web site has been created so that colleagues, students, mentors, friends, and others may honor John by posting messages, articles, anecdotes, and other tributes. (A link in the sidebar explains how you can contribute to the site.)
