DEDICATION This yearbook is dedicated to the memory of Richard Ertel. Professor Ertel made countless contributions to Vincennes University, one of which is the University Alma Mater. The following tribute is reprinted from the memorial service program. Richard Ertel’s life was music, and, because it was, each of us has been the benefactor. We will remember the laughter in the keyboards of the mighty Wurlitzer theatre organ which was his special pride, or in the pianos across campus that came alive to his touch, or living on through the fingers of his students who learned the beauty of the scales and chords through the patient instruction of a master. Born in Vincennes, Richard Ertel was graduated from Lincoln High School. He was awarded an Associate Degree in Liberal Arts at Vincennes University in 1949. He continued his education at the Chicago Conservatory of Music where he earned the bachelor’s and master’s degree in 1952 and 1953, respectively. He was undecided about a career in performing or teaching, and through the next few years he played on radio, stages and in clubs. He returned to Vincennes, and in 1961 he took the position as instructor in music at Vincennes University. Since 1974 he has served as chairman of the Music Department which annually graduates students in Music-Fine Arts and Music Theatre. Hundreds of others perform and study music as electives. Richard Ertel willingly shared his talents with all as he played for his own Sacred Heart and each of the Catholic Churches in Vincennes. Never was he too busy to play for campus events. His improvisations, his compositions including the Alma Mater, his musical selections and arrangements which were right for every occasion are part of the legacy he has left to those of us who have been his appreciative audience. When we hear the melodies of the mighty Wurlitzer, we will remember the smile of Richard Ertel as he put love into our music. Richard J. Ertel December 31, 1929-April 17, 1983
