R
obert N. Naifeh Jr. '79 entered Our Mystic Shrine on March
29. It is with a heavy heart that we inform you his caring, loving,
giving, and active life was cut short by COVID-19. Bob was recruitment
chairman for the Gamma Phi Chapter in the late '70s and recently
enjoyed a reunion with his brothers in February.
Bob earned his bachelor of arts in journalism in 1979 before obtaining
his juris doctor degree from Oklahoma City University School of Law
in 1983. Bob began his law practice in 1983. At the time of his passing,
Bob was president and managing partner of Derryberry & Naifeh, LLP.
He was a well-respected attorney and was regarded for his knowledge
and dedication to the practice of law.
Nothing was more important to Bob than family. He was a devoted
husband, father, and grandfather. Bob also loved the outdoors and
the Sooners. His family notes his Beta Theta Pi fraternity brothers
represented the strongest ties of friendship. Our thoughts and prayer to
his wife, Carol, and their three sons.
IN MEMORY OF ROBERT N. NAIFEH JR. '79;
COVID-19 CLAIMS ONE OF OUR OWN
Alumni Advisory Opportunities
You Don't Have to be Local Anymore!
T
he chapter advisory team has been working
actively with the House Corporation
and the undergraduate executive committee
throughout all of the new challenges that have
been presented by COVID-19. As with many
other parts of our normal life, this has all been
done remotely through Zoom and Skype.
One positive that has come from this process
is realizing that we can operate much more
efficiently over these various platforms.
We have realized this presents an opportunity
to involve many more alumni in advisory
roles. In the past, our advisory team has
mostly been limited to alumni located in
Norman or Oklahoma City. After positive
feedback from the executive officers, we
would like to expand our advisory team
to include alumni that have not had the
opportunity to get involved before due to
geographical limitations.
If you have any interest in joining the advisory
team, feel free to contact me directly. We are
actively shifting roles and focuses amongst the
team, so let me know what area you would like
to help in and we can make it work.
Yours in _kai_,
Bill Johnston '15
