Kimberly L. Olsen White (10BA)

In 2014, White was diagnosed with stage four adrenalcortical carcinoma, a rare and highly aggressive form of cancer. Pregnant with her second child, White lost the baby and was given just months to live. Instead, while enduring more than 50 surgeries and procedures over the next six years, the young mother inspired countless others with her unbreakable spirit and passion for life.

A former Iowa soccer player and health sciences student, White chronicled the ups and downs of her cancer battle on her popular Instagram account, @kimcankickit, where she wrote candidly about faith, family, and learning to accept her disease as a gift. "This isn't a story about cancer," White once said. "It's a story for anyone going through any trial. It's the recipe for going from broken into beautiful. To embrace the process."

White, of Kaysville, Utah, died Feb. 14, 2020, at age 32. She is survived by husband, Treagan White (11DDS, 13PedoS), and daughter, Hensleigh.

Chng Seok Tin (85MFA)

One of Singapore's most celebrated artists, Chng overcame the loss of her eyesight to become an advocate for artists with disabilities.

Chng studied art in the United Kingdom, France, and the U.S.— including as a graduate student in the UI School of Art and Art History's renowned printmaking program. In 1988, Chng lost most of her vision after a fall and subsequent surgery to remove a brain abscess. She was undeterred as an artist, however, relearning her printmaking techniques and focusing on sculpture and mixed media.

Between 1977 to 2019, Chng was the subject of more than 30 solo and 138 group exhibitions. In 2005, she became the first artist from her nation to hold an exhibition at the United Nations in New York. She also was a longtime teacher, as well as a prolific writer who published 12 collections of short stories, commentaries, travel writings, and art reviews. Chng was named Woman of the Year in 2001 by Singapore's Her World magazine, while in 2005 she received her country's prestigious Cultural Medallion.

Chng died of cancer on Sept. 6, 2019, in Singapore. She was 73.
