Brother Denis Sennett



Sorry to report that Brother Denis Sennett, S.A., Archivist for the Friars
of the Atonement, passed away on Friday after a brief illness.  The wake
is today at Graymoor, in Garrison NY, and the funeral will be tomorrow.
Many will remember Denis as a long-time advocate for religious archives
and founder of the Archivists of Religious Institutions, as well as a
sponsor of innumerable workshops geared toward beginning archivists in
religious repositories.  He was a long-time secetary of MARAC, very active
in SAA, and one of the really fun and appropriately iconoclastic people in
the profession.  He will be missed.
