Katy Potocki Sanchez

March 6, 1989 - July 5, 2025

“May praises and songs
Neither today nor tomorrow
But for all time
So long as you have the place
Be sweetest to you”

From Laudes Atque Carmina, which opens every Glee Club Performance

On Saturday July 5th, we lost our dear Katy Potocki Sanchez. Only 36 years old - Katy was a beloved wife, mother, daughter, and friend, and lived a life full of positivity and joy.

In honor of Katy, we are proud to announce that donations are now being accepted toward the Katy Potocki Sanchez Endowment benefitting the University of Michigan Women’s Glee Club.

Katy’s love of singing began as a member of the MSU Children’s Choir, and continued to grow during her time in the Women’s Glee Club. Music brought her joy, friendships, and even led her to meet her future husband.

This endowment will support future generations of the Women’s Glee Club, and help carry forward Katy’s passion for music, harmony, and community.

Thank you for helping us continue Katy’s legacy - a life lived in song and love.
