Message from Wendy Hopkins, director of alumni relations (Williams):

I am very sad to report that Nathan Krissoff ’03 died this weekend while serving as a U.S. Marine in Iraq.

Many on campus will recall him as a political science major and a member of the water polo team and swim team, which he captained his senior year.

Below is a message from his parents, with what's known about his passing and information on how to receive updates on plans for a memorial service.
