Anthony DeFeo
1948-2010
|
| Anthony B. DeFeo died Tuesday, September 21, 2010, four years after he was diagnosed
with cancer. He was the Director of the Speech, Language, and Hearing clinics
and faculty member in the Department of Speech, Language, and Hearing Sciences
at the University of Arizona. His broad mission encompassed the education
of prospective clinicians by linking classroom and laboratory principles
to the clinical arena, learning from challenging clients, and promoting
a passion for the clinical process. For more than a quarter of a century,
Dr. DeFeo’s clinical and research activities have centered on identification,
evaluation and treatment of pediatric communication disorders especially
those related to syndromic and other atypical clinical presentations. He
was also involved in developing several evidence-based treatment programs
for all ages in the department’s several clinics. His passion for
his work was reflected through the love of his students. He will be
greatly missed. |
