默默無聞的圖書管理員 去世時的遺囑震驚世界

Millions he left behind will go to building a career center for students and alumni, and another million will go toward a video scoreboard for UNH's new football stadium — the school said he took to watching UNH games in the last year of his life. But $100,000 was earmarked for the library Morin worked at for so long, contributing to work-study student scholarships and more at the library.
他留下的百萬遺產要爲學生和校友建立一個就業中心,另100萬將用於建設新罕布什爾大學新足球場的視頻記分板。但10萬美元專款(將)用於莫林工作了長時間的圖書館、以及勤工助學的學金、還有圖書館的其他方面。

Born in Nashua, he graduated in 1961 and worked at the library from 1965 to 2014.
出生在納舒厄的羅伯特於1961年畢業,從1965年到2014年於圖書館工作。

"He never went out," his financial adviser, Edward Mullen told the newspaper. He ate frozen dinners instead of going out for food, and gave his estate to the school because he had no relatives.
“他從不外出,”他的財務顧問愛德華·馬倫告訴記者。他從不出去覓食,而是隻吃冷凍食品,並將他的財產交給了到學校,因爲他沒有親戚。
