With fond memories of one of my RS-I pedagogy teachers, I share with you this obituary I found on line after an e-mail I was sending him kept coming back.
Marge and Bain and son Henry lived on our floor in 1969 in the main building of the old seminary on the West Side. I can’t remember what we called it. I think Marge was teaching in the preschool then. They were very helpful in our settling into that strange new atmosphere with our 18 month old son.
Bain joins the many others whose lives were completed during this past year. Journey on, dear colleague!
With care and thanksgiving for his life and significant service,
Lynda Cock

https://www.facebook.com/marj.davis Dear Marj, I just heard of Bain's passing a few moments ago from an email posted by Lynda Cock. I have a number of fine memories of Bain. On a development trip in New Orleans, we stopped to eat near Lake Pontchartrain, where, at dusk, he pointed out the profile of a beautiful woman. It was so completely out of character, I can recall it perfectly. We simply and silently observed. He was my good prior in the Local Church Experiment in northern Ill. and southern Wi. In the early 90s, he brought me down from Ottawa for a consultation with a group of radical feminists at the Riane Eisler Center for Partnership Studies in Woodstock, New York. What a memorable encounter. With tongue in cheek, dare I say the there were no seminal moments? How was it that Bain was organizing this event? Of course, I can recall pleasant conversations with you and meeting Henry when I first came to the West Side in ‘68. Bain was forever, gentle and dignified. Here's to your 55 years together. Bless you, bless him. Ken
