IN MEMORIAM
ABSW lost two friends in recent months.
Fred Drexler, son of seminary founder Dr. Frederic I. Drexler,
died Dec. 7, 2003, at the age of 88. Dr. Louis Knoll, former vice
president of business and financial affairs, died Feb. 12, 2004.
He was 78.
Drexler, an insurance executive who spent much of his retirement
engaged in civic activities, was a major supporter of ABSW. One
of his gifts made possible the Drexler Student Commons, named in
honor of his father. Knoll, a vice president at ABSW from 1978-1985,
left the seminary to take a post at Regent’s College in his
native Canada. He was the first student to enroll in the Graduate
Theological Union in 1963, and in 1971 he received the first Ph.D.
granted by ABSW.
