Hoyle remembered by Mends Four friends and colleagues of University biology Professor Graham Hoyle, who died Satur day of heart failure, spoke at a memorial service Wednesday in Gerlinger Lounge. Jazz music, rather than traditional funeral hymns, was playing while nearly 150 people crowded into the room. “You may wonder why we’re playing this music,” said biology Professor Philip Grant. “It was his tape. It was something he recorded and loved very much. And he was listening to it when he died,” Grant said. Grant remembered Hoyle most for his strong mindedness. “He had strong opinions about many things, and he never hesitated to air them publicly or privately,” Grant said. “In all my dealings with him, I felt I always knew exactly what was on his mind.” Kingsley Weatherhead, an English professor who had been a friend of Hoyle’s, explained that they became acquainted when someone sug gested they should get together since they both talked “funny.” Both Hoyle and Weatherhead immigrated from England. “1 admired him as an eminent scientist,” Weatherhead said. “And I had enormous respect for his knowledge.” Mike Menaker, director of the neuroscience department, commended Hoyle for deriving theories that were very unpopular at the time but are becoming more popular now. “He was probably best known for his con tribution to understanding of nervous systems of very simple organisms,” Menaker said. Longtime friend Ernest Florey said Hoyle was an uncompromising physiologist. “He left a legacy of influence that will be felt for a long time,” Florey said.
