The Asheville Citizen-Times reports on the death of Angi Brenton, wife of Keith Brenton, who is well-known to many in Churches of Christ for his work with New Wineskins magazine:

CULLOWHEE — Angela Laird Brenton, 60, provost and vice chancellor for academic affairs at Western Carolina University since Aug. 1, died Wednesday after a three-month battle with pancreatic cancer.
“Our hearts are broken,” said WCU Chancellor David O. Belcher. “In her short time in Cullowhee, Angi has been a wonderful colleague and wonderful friend. Although Angi was at Western Carolina for less than a year, she has had a tremendous impact on this university through her leadership on several significant initiatives, and she quickly became a respected and beloved member of the WCU family. Her passing saddens us deeply.”
