BrobbeyThe Jesse H. Jones School of Business mourns the loss of one of its outstanding professors, Dr. Ofori-Brobbey. Dr. Brobbey joined the JHJ faculty in 2005 and served as a Professor of Management teaching courses in communications, leadership, and organizational strategy.

I was very fortunate to have been taught by Dr. Brobbey. He was a great man, with such humility, who cared deeply about the success of his students.

The following funeral arrangements have been planned. Condolences can be dropped off at the Dean’s Office and will be delivered to Mrs. Brobbey in two weeks.

Viewing
July 4th, 6:00 p.m. – 9:00 p.m.
Sugar Land Mortuary Funeral Home
1818 Eldridge, Sugarland, TX 77478

Funeral Service
July 5th, 11:00 a.m.
Thomas Aquinas Catholic Church
12627 W Bellfort Ave, Sugarland, TX 77478

In addition, the School is planning a memorial sometime in early Fall.

Please join me in lifting the Brobbey and the JHJ family in our prayers during this difficult time.

Sincerely,

Blake Green
President, Jesse H. Jones School of Business Alumni Chapter
