Nancy and Dan Brophy

Portland, Oregon chef instructor Dan Brophy was found murdered on June 2, 2018 at the Oregon Culinary Institute by his students. Who would kill this kind 63 year old man who was well-loved and helped so many? His beloved wife and romance writer Nancy Brophy had written an essay called, “How to Murder Your Husband” years earlier…was that foreshadowing or an unfortunate coincidence?
