Memorial service set for Jay Meek


Please join us for a memorial service as we celebrate the life of Jay Meek, professor of emeritus who retired from UND in 2004, with his poetry, with music, good food, and good company. We would be honored by your presence. The memorial service will be at 2 p.m. Sunday, Dec. 2, in the Loft Literary Center Auditorium (second floor of Open Book), 1011 Washington Avenue South, Minneapolis.

For those coming from out of town, we have reserved a block of rooms at:
University Days Inn
2407 University Ave. SE
Minneapolis, MN
612-623-3999

Rooms are $65 a night; the rooms will no longer be available at that rate after Nov. 26. Ask for the "Jay Meek Memorial" event.

The Days Inn is in close proximity to the Loft Literary Center where the memorial will be held. Please note that a football game will be going on at the Metrodome nearby, and parking will be more difficult than usual. We can provide transportation for those who need it. If you know of someone who might like to attend, please don't hesitate to pass this message on. -- Martha Meek, associate professor emerita of English, and Anna Meek.
