Au Revoir to Dennis

Dear friends, Thank you once again for joining us to say au revoir to Dennis. 900 TV programs plus – time flies when you're having fun. He was touched and grateful for your being there or sending your regards and notes if you could not be. When we spoke yesterday he was joyfully sipping champagne on his terrace in his new home in Argagnon.  The Pyrennees and a wine grove are his new views. C'est la vie! We're excited about the new future we're envisioning which I will be telling you about later in November. So as always stay tuned [...]

A Tribute to a Great Teacher

Do you have a Simone in your life? An old Japanese proverb says: better than a thousand days of diligent study is one day with a great teacher. I was supremely blessed to have more than one day with a truly transformational teacher, the late Simone Joyaux, ACFRE. It was the summer of 2000, that I first met Simone at St. Mary’s University, Winona, Minnesota, where I was diligently studying for a masters in philanthropy and development. She gave evidence of her commitment to and the advancing of the field of philanthropy not only in her teaching but in her actions. Knowledgeable, [...]
