We are heartbroken by the immeasurable loss to our Ivy Tech Tell City family. Dean Gengelbach, beloved instructor, dedicated welding educator, mentor to hundreds of students, colleague, and friend, passed away unexpectedly this weekend.
His impact on our campus and our community will never be forgotten.
To honor Dean and allow our staff, faculty, and students to attend services we will have a modified schedule.
• Monday: Site open until 2:00 PM. Day classes will meet. Welding staff will gather with welding students at 5:30 PM for support before dismissal to attend visitation.
• Tuesday: Site closed during the day; no daytime classes. Night classes will meet as scheduled.
• Wednesday: Normal schedule resumes.
We hold Dean’s family and all who loved him in our thoughts during this difficult time, especially Dr Alexa Gengelbach and Bryce Gengelbach who are also dedicated instructors for Ivy Tech Tell City.
