VICTORIA LITTMAN Obituary

Victoria Caroline Littman Victoria Caroline Littman, the daughter of Allan and Caroline Littman of Tiburon, California, died in an accident at her home in Toronto, Canada, on October 11, 2010. She was 50 years old. A celebration of her life will be held at 11 a.m. on November 7, at the Metropolitan Club, 640 Sutter Street, San Francisco. Besides her parents, she is survived by her husband Anton Marcu, their son Alexander, her three brothers, Jeremy, Jonathan and Peter, her nephews Nicholas, Isaac and Sam, and her nieces, Jesse, Elizabeth, Katherine and Felicia. After graduating from Marin Country Day School, and Katherine Branson's, she received her BA from McGill University, an MA from the University of Pennsylvania, and an MA and PhD in Education from the University of Toronto, where she was a learning strategist for the last eight years before heading the student services program at the Ontario College of Art and Design in Ontario. Victoria was not merely a fine student. She was a bright spirit whose laughter could enlighten a room. She was a graceful skier and athlete, widely loved and respected. At her funeral in Toronto on October 16, in addition to hers and her husband's families, approximately 100 of her Canadian neighbors, friends, colleagues and many former and present students attended, and spoke of her with great appreciation, respect and love.

Victoria was the first friend I made in graduate school, and remained one for a quarter of a century. She was loyal, empathetic, and supportive, and had a keen mind and a wonderful sense of humor. I have fond memories of her family's graduation ceremony for her in Center City, Philadelphia, as well as her trip with Anton to Mammoth Cave. My wife and I miss her greatly. Please accept my condolences.
