Will Husarewycz

It is with profound sadness that we share the heartbreaking news of the passing of one of our physician assistant students and physiotherapy alum, Will Husarewycz, over the weekend from a cardiac event. He was a valued and respected member of our community whose kindness, commitment, and presence impacted students, colleagues, faculty, staff, and patients alike. His loss is deeply felt by all who have the privilege of knowing and working alongside him. Our thoughts are with Will's family, friends, loved ones. Our deepest condolences during this incredibly difficult time as those close to Will navigate this unimaginable loss. 

We ask that you please respect the family's privacy as they navigate this incredibly difficult loss.
