It is with a very heavy heart that we share that Corey Gradin, daughter of Elise Goldwasser, our Director of Undergraduate Internships, and her husband Harlan Gradin, passed away on February 24 at the age of 26 following a life-long illness. Corey was strong, courageous, and a beautiful young woman who lived her life to the fullest.
Elise has been a member of Sanford community for over 20 years and is well-loved and respected. Her passion and care for the undergraduate students are unmatched and she has touched hundreds of lives.
Please keep Corey's family in your thoughts during this difficult time. For further information, please contact Dr. Nadia Chamberlin.
