Larkin Kathleen Brogan ’09

Our classmate Larkin Brogan died Oct. 20, 2012, in Berkeley, Calif. She was a master’s degree student in architecture at the University of California, Berkeley’s school of environmental design.

At Princeton, Larkin studied in the School of Architecture, where she was recognized for her design skills. An outstanding athlete, she played catcher on the women’s softball team and was a beloved member of Cap and Gown Club.

Everyone who knew Larkin admired her creativity, her positive spirit, and her unforgettable smile. Classmate Chante Coleman described Larkin as her “SoCal home girl” with whom she wore cool sunglasses, rode skateboards, and suffered through the New Jersey winters. Adding to her California cool, Larkin also loved surfing, wakeboarding, running, and bicycling. Coleman said Larkin was just one of those people who, if she hugged you, you knew that she really meant it. Her smiles and hugs will be missed deeply by her classmates, friends, and loved ones.
