It is with heartfelt sadness that the Metzler family announces the death of Meredith G. Metzler, 48, of Columbus, Ohio. Meredith passed away on July 21, 2023 after a courageous battle with cancer.
After Meredith graduated from Bishop Watterson High School (where he was a percussionist in the band), he went on to study mathematics and physics at Kalamazoo College (where he met his wife, Kelly) and Cornell University.
Meredith worked in a variety of positions at the Cornell NanoScale Facility (CNF), the Quattrone Nanofabrication–Singh Center for Nanotechnology (QNF), and the National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST) over his professional career. He also participated in many working groups and planning teams in his scientific interest areas.
Meredith enjoyed his time volunteering with Scouting and his son’s robotics team. He was a car enthusiast, and delighted in fixing cars, spectating at amateur rally racing, and attending professional races. Meredith’s other hobbies included cycling (proudly completing two charity century races), tackling house projects, taking his sons to concerts, and spending time with friends.
He is survived by his loving parents, Patricia and Eric Metzler; wife, Kelly Metzler; children, Riley and Kieran Metzler; and many caring aunts, uncles, and cousins.
A celebration of Meredith’s life will occur at a future date, with details to be determined. In lieu of flowers, please consider a donation to the American Cancer Society in honor of Meredith’s life.
