Longtime University of Nevada, Reno journalism professor Dr. Michael Todd Felts has died.Â
In a statement from UNR President Brian Sandoval, he said that Felts "passed away unexpectedly on Thursday."
Dr. Felts started teaching at UNR in 2008 and taught public relations and advertising.
He also was instrumental in organizing this year's 'Pops on the River' event (which you can read below)
While it will definitely be pops, with this years theme of 'Nashville to Neon' it's not so much on the river.
"His love, care and compassion for everyone he knew was felt throughout our campus and in our community. He was, simply, a bundle of energy who could also be an incredibly thoughtful and steadying force for anyone he ever knew." Sandoval went on to say.Â
Memorial service details will be released at a later date.
