Rene Owen McShane

On behalf of the School of Social Work at the University of Wisconsin-Madison, we share our condolences to the family of our 1969 MSSW alum, Rene McShane. We will make note of his passing in our next alumni newsletter so that his classmates can be aware of his passing. It was very moving to read that he returned to get his social work degree to further assist those in his ministry who were dealing with a variety of social problems, and they he continued his education while working and raising a family.
