Memphis Penn Club Student Sendoff Aug 11 - https://mailchi.mp/6145a1a437b9/aug-11-sendoff-in-3-weeks

We lost another Memphis Quaker last week. Neil E. “Nick” Ringel died peacefully on March 22 after a life filled with family, friends, purpose, and achievement. He was 87 years old.

You can read his obituary and all about his life's accomplishments here: https://buff.ly/49jbeqb

From his obituary: "Meanwhile he renewed his acquaintance with Jerome Makowsky, a fraternity brother from Penn, and began investing with him in a few real estate ventures. It wasn’t long before they went into business together, with Nick functioning as a silent partner until 1978, when he joined Jerome full-time. Makowsky and Ringel Inc. became one of the leading real estate development and management companies in the Memphis area. After 46 years of being close friends as well as business partners, it seems fitting that Nick’s death occurred just two weeks after Jerome’s."

Loving article about Memphis Penn Alumnus Jerome Makowsky can be read on our FB page. We were saddened by his passing but enjoyed reading about the amazing legacy he built and left in Memphis.

“Sometimes in our race to the finish line, to complete the demands of the day, we forget to stop for a moment to appreciate the folks who spent a lifetime before us trying to make Memphis the place where we want to live.”
