Fernando Belaunde Terry, 89, a former Peruvian president who was run out of office by military leaders in 1968 and returned to power by a large majority in elections 12 years later, died yesterday of complications of a stroke, according to a nephew.
A veteran of more than a half-century in politics, Mr. Belaunde Terry was regarded as a patriarch of democracy in Latin America, and one of the region's great orators. He had a reputation for personal honesty that made him stand out among Peruvian political leaders.
Mr. Belaunde Terry's second wife, Violeta Correa, one of his closest collaborators, died of lung cancer last year; those close to him said his wife's death left him despondent.
During a decade spent in exile after his ouster, Mr. Belaunde earned his living as a university professor, teaching at Harvard, Columbia, Johns Hopkins and George Washington universities.
Howard Eisenberg, 55, dean of Marquette University Law School and head of a commission investigating sex abuse by priests in the Archdiocese of Milwaukee, died yesterday.
Mr. Eisenberg, whose commission recently recommended a "zero tolerance" policy for priests involved in sex abuse, suffered a heart attack May 23 -- the day Archbishop Rembert Weakland admitted he had reached a secret settlement with a man who accused him of sexual assault.
