| Honoring a brother's legacy

For UTA Assistant Professor of modern languages Lisalee Egbert, one panel of the AIDS Memorial Quilt on display at UTA Libraries is more than just a piece of history. It is a connection to her brother Kyle Lee, who died from the disease more than 30 years ago. Before her brother passed, he asked his family members to create a section of the quilt so that people would know his story.
