Salmi Campillo - one of my best students 1980 - 2006.
I learnt today of the death of a former student that I taught from the Dominican Republic in the summer of 2001 whilst at RIT. Salmi Campillo died of a heart attack following a tug of war game at Lancaster University in the UK July 3rd 2006 whilst sitting a masters in finance course. Salmi was a wonderful student, had a great sense of humor and produced first class work throughout my class. She also refused to call me anything other than 'teacher' - even after she graduated. Rest in peace Salmi. You're missed.

We were close friends for a few years at RIT. She was beautiful in every aspect. I miss her smile.
Rest In Peace..
Salmi was a close friend of mine. I met her while I was in Jamaica doing research. She was studying at UWI. We always kept in touch after we went our separate ways and I even saw her once in the DR. Overall, she was an unbelievable person and one of the most down to earth person i have ever met. She will be missed!
