Former President Bill Clinton is among a high-powered cast of
dignitaries scheduled to speak at the memorial service for Lewis Katz
at Temple University on Wednesday morning.

Gov. Corbett, former Gov. Ed Rendell, Bill Cosby, Mayor Nutter, New
Jersey Sen. Cory A. Booker, and Inquirer editor William K. Marimow
also are on the list of 15 speakers expected to bid goodbye to Katz,
the philanthropist and Temple benefactor who was killed Saturday in a
plane crash outside Boston.

"It's very clearly going to be a place where people will want to come
and pay their respects to Lewis Katz," said Temple spokesman Ray
Betzner.

Katz, a co-owner of The Inquirer, was among seven people killed when
his private jet crashed during takeoff in Bedford, Mass. Investigators
are looking into the cause.

He and three friends were attending an education fund-raising event in
Concord at the home of the historian Doris Kearns Goodwin and her
husband, Richard Goodwin, an adviser to Presidents John F. Kennedy and
Lyndon B. Johnson. Doris Kearns Goodwin also is on the speakers list.

The service is to begin at 11 a.m. at Temple's Performing Arts Center,
1837 N. Broad St. - the former Baptist Temple - which can hold 1,200.
Doors open at 10 a.m. An overflow area will be set up in nearby Mitten
Hall to accommodate an additional 600, Betzner said.

The service will also be streamed live on Temple's website,
www.temple.edu, and broadcast on Temple's television station, TUTV,
accessible in the city on Comcast Channel 50 and Verizon Channel 45.
In addition, NBC10 will air the entire service on its station and on
NBC10.com.

Other speakers include Ed Snider, owner of the Flyers; Patrick
O'Connor, chair of Temple's board of trustees; Temple president Neil
Theobald; Rabbi Aaron Krupnick of Congregation Beth El; and Katz's
son, Drew; daughter, Melissa Silver; and grandson Ethan Silver.

The university has worked with the city, state, and federal
governments on security, Betzner said. "We will have security
appropriate to the occasion," he said.

Betzner said that the university would have held the service in the
larger Liacouras Center, but that a high school graduation already was
scheduled for the same time. University officials expect lots of
traffic and congestion, and recommend public transportation. Parking
will be available in the Liacouras Center garage.

In 1925, when Temple founder Russell Conwell died, thousands of people
from across the city flocked to his funeral, filling the Baptist
Temple and standing outside to pay their respects, according to an
account by the university.

"It will be interesting to see if the scene is the same," Betzner said.

Katz, a 1963 grad, was the largest donor in Temple's history, the
university said, most recently pledging $25 million for its medical
school, which will be named for him. The 72-year-old had served on the
board of trustees since 1998.
