Eric May
Nov 30th,
2009
Over Thanksgiving weekend, the Kent State VCD community was deeply saddened to learn that Professor Eric May has passed away.
Eric’s passion for typography and letterpress, along with his quiet humor and positive attitude, were legendary among Kent State VCD alumni. As a former student of his, I feel truly blessed to have known and been taught by Eric. He will be missed.
For those who would like to send a condolence card, please address it to Eric’s children: Tom, Liz and Kate, at 456 Port Drive, Akron, Ohio, 44319.

Wow- just the other day I was at the bookstore when I found a really cool pop up book. As I began to pull each lever, I started to make funny sounds. Instantly I smiled and thought of Eric – and all that time folding paper in his class and some of the funny sounds that would pop out of an otherwise, quiet man. What I’ll remember most about Eric was his gentle and encouraging nature and how refreshing it was in the middle of my sophomore year.
He will be missed always… http://twitpic.com/rnz3s
