As the Collegeville Institute celebrated its 50th Anniversary, Bearings Online published profiles of persons closely associated with the Institute’s history: “Collegeville Greats—that great cloud of witnesses who have accompanied us since 1967, and will journey with us into the future.” I was honored to be asked to write several of the profiles of persons I know—and in the cases of O’Gara (1947-2012), Stransky (1930-2019), Bilheimer (1917-2006), LaCugna (1952-97), Shannon (1921-2003), and Piper (1917-90), knew.
