Lovell, who led the university as its first lay president from 2014 until his death on June 9, 2024, from sarcoma, a rare form of cancer.

1wCongratulations Kimo! Well deserved and an incredible historical event for our Alumni. Looking forward to your continued leadership. You picked the ball up and ran after our deep loss.
