Remembering Bowie Kuhn - A man committed to family values
Yesterday saw the passing of Bowie Kuhn, the commissioner of baseball from 1969-1984, one of the most tumultuous (and prosperous) eras in the history of the sport. Kuhn was committed both to the integrity of the game and to its expansion, traits that left him in conflict with many of the game's most interesting characters but ultimately left him with the respect of them all. What is less well-known is Kuhn's lifelong commitment to family values and the sanctity of human life. He served in leadership roles for various nonprofit entities that foster these enduring values including Chairman of the Advisory Board for the Thomas Moore Law Center which defends the religious freedoms of Christians. He graduated from Princeton Univ. and then from the Univ. of Virginia with a law degree. He has been a board member of Christendom College, New York Medical College, Thomas Aquinas College, Franklin & Marshall College, the Jackie Robinson Foundation, and the Baseball Hall of Fame and Museum and the Ave Maria Foundation. He led an estimable life and we offer his family and friends our deep condolences.See also:Former baseball Commissioner Bowie Kuhn dies at 80 Tags:death, remembering, Bowie Kuhn, commissioner of baseball
