On September 19 at the University of Wisconsin-Madison there was a memorial for one of their great professors, Robert Grilley or "Mr. Grilley" as we called him as graduate students back in the late 1970s.
Mr. Grilley set a standard of excellence that we all strove to achieve. He was tough on his students and could prove his point on a chalk board whenever anyone doubted him. I still feel the influence of Mr. Grilley in my own teaching career after 31 years.
His studio is still set up as if he will be back later to paint.
