Russel Behm Obituary

Graduation Year Class of 1967
Date of Passing Mar 18, 2018
About Russel Behm passed away Sunday, March 18th in Santa Barbara, California after a brief illness.

His death was sudden and came as a surprise to those close to him.

He worked at GM on space projects and in the defense industry, and headed the GM Failure Analysis group in Santa Barbara later in his career. He was a respected and accomplished engineer.

Missing the Class of 1967 50th reunion in Lake Mills in 2017, he organized a mini-50th in Santa Barbara with Jim Everson, Bob Pfistor and Bob Stiller! In Lake Mills we were able to talk to all of them and it made our 50th super wonderful!!

We will miss you Russ, our class Valedictorian!
