Jim Henderson extiguishes the candle for the 413th Infantry and salutes all those present and past.

We’ve talked in the past about Maggie Cox’s amazing dad, Jim Henderson. There’s too much to tell about him in a little FYI piece, but we can offer this tidbit. The Henderson-Cox family was honored to be in attendance in Chicago as Jim’s WWII Army Infantry Division celebrated its 65th and final annual reunion. Unbelievable, powerful and humbling don’t begin to describe it. Luckily for us, the pros of the Chicago Sun Times were on site to capture the very moving Memorial Service. The photo gallery alone showcases the power of what these heroes did for us. And history buffs note: The 104th’s current general, Brigadier General Daniel Lee York, is the grandson of Sgt York.

 
Our condolences to Suzy and Bob McDonald on the recent passing of Bob’s mother, Betty. Betty was a spirited art lover, a gentle soul and a woman known and loved far and wide. She lived a long life but we know it is never easy to say goodbye.

Paul Zingg, former Cal Poly provost, centerish.

Admittedly, we at BCA are Chico State fans. Daddy Dave Cox hails from the school as does daughter Lindsay. Pals Jeff and Joan Buckingham just dropped their daughter off for her frosh year. And CSU Chico’s prez is our own Paul Zingg, former Cal Poly provost. Check out this fun video and see how Zingg and a few friends welcome the newbie’s.

You remember we bade fond farewell to Kristin Savage, our designer who moved to SF recently. Well, this is one young woman who won’t be convinced there’s a tough economy out there. She found a great new position with a fun PR firm before the moving van even unloaded. We like to think it was that great work she did at BCA that made her so attractive to Bite Communications. Bravo, Kristin.

We note with sadness the recent passing of two wonderful women, each of whom left a deep imprint on our community and especially on college education: Lois Martinez and Sandee Ogren. We extend condolences on the loss and appreciation for their giving spirits.

Twittering Biz Wiz Martha Van Inwegen with BCA staff

Meet Martha Van Inwegen. We did, and were dazzled by the story of her company, Action Wipes, a business that sings using Twitter (and Martha’s marketing savvy). More on Martha in future FYI’s … Kudos to FYI fan, BCA friend, and well, heck, another Maggie Cox family member. Maggie’s sister, Diane Henderson, is a planning professional in Marin County and a dedicated volunteer. Diane spent a whirlwind ten days in

Globetrotting volunteer Diane Henderson

 Western Africa vaccinating children against polio. She’s been to Argentina with Habitat for Humanity and the Philippines on a Rotary kidney transplant team. Next up:  Diane leads a group of teens to Tijuana for a spring break homebuilding effort. And she does it all on top of a demanding day job.

We extend condolences to family and friends on the loss of two community leaders:  Don Woodward of Sunset Honda and Richard Macedo, who was former Supervisor Shirley Bianchi’s longtime aide. Both fought long and hard; Don with ALS and Richard with cancer. They will be missed.
