A celebration of life was held Friday morning at The Liacouras Center for Temple University President Dr. JoAnne Epps.

She was transported to Temple University Hospital where she was pronounced dead around 3:15 p.m., the university said.There has been no word on what caused her death. A doctor speaking at a news conference said she suffered a "sudden episode."A native of Cheltenham and a graduate of Yale Law School, Epps held leadership roles in national organizations like the American Bar Association. She was an assistant U.S.

"She was such a force here. And her affection for this institution, especially for her respect for the people, were just bottomless. To think she is no longer here, there's a little hole in the soul of Temple University today," said Ray Betzner, the former associate VP for marketing and communications at Temple.
