TheRev. Dr.Gwynne Guibord, Internationally
Recognized Interfaith Leader andFounder of The
GuibordCenter ,Loses10-Year Battle withCancer
LOSANGELES—TheRev. Dr.Gwynne Guibord,
founder and president emeritaofThe Guibord
Center ,aninter faith nonproitorganization, lost a
10-year battle with cancer onAugust15.She was
75.
BornJune 27,1944inFlint,Michigan, Dr.
Guibordearned her PhD in clinical psychology
and hadasuccessful career asapsychotherapist
and educator.Her sister’s death in1992 took her
intothe priesthood.Completingamaster’s degree
in divinityfromClaremont School of Theology in
1998, Dr.Guibordwas ordained in the Universal
Fellowship of MetropolitanCommunityChurches
(UFMCC) thatyear.
Her leadership in ecumenical and interreligious
roles with theWorldCouncil of Churches and
NationalCouncil of Churches of Christ (NCCC)
led to signiicant breakthroughs in the UFMCC’s
relationships with both organizations andgarnered
much at tention.
In March 2003, Bob Edgar,The General
Secretaryofthe NCCC,sent Dr.Guibordaspart
of aspecial envoytothe Vaticanto meet with His
Holi nessPope John Paul II in an attempt to prevent
theU.S.fromgoingto warwithIraqfor asecond
time.Itwas one of severalurgent diplomatic
missions shewasaskedto joinseeking peace in
conlict areas around theworld.
In May2003,following UFMCC’sretreat from
their commitmentto ecumenical and interfaith
work,Episcopal Bishop J. JonBruno personally
invited Dr.Guibordtotransfer her ordinationto
the Episcopal Churchto serve theDiocese of Los
Angeles. In 2005, shewasofficiallyordained in
the Episcopal Church and became the Bishop’s
Ecumenical and Interreligious Officer.She served
at times simultaneouslyasThe InterfaithConsultant
to theEpiscopal Church in the USA.
Dr.Guibord’sinter faith in volvement also included
serving as president of theCaliforniaCouncil of
Churches,the Interfaith Alliance,the Interreligious
Council of SouthernCalifor nia,and Progressive
Christians Uniting.She served as co-chair of the
National Muslim-Christian InitiativeDialogueon
behalf of the NCCC and, mostrecently, of the
NCCC’sBuddhist-Christian Dialogue and Hindu-
Christian Dialogue.She also independentlyco-
founded and co-convened the Christian-Muslim
ConsultativeGroup with her colleague,ImamJihad
Turk.
In 2009, at age 65, Dr.Guibordlearned she
had stage IV breast cancer.“At atimewhen most
peopleretire,Gwynne decidedto take her many
friendshipsforged throughoutyearsofinterfaith
experience and createacompletelynew kind of
organization wherepeople could cometo know
and value the Holyinthe other,”noted Dr.Lois
M. Sprague,who recentlysucceeded Dr.Guibo rd
as The GuibordCenter’spresident. In 2011,Dr.
Guibordofficiall ylaunched theCenter.
The GuibordCenterfoster srelationships among
the Christian,Jewish, Buddhist, Hindu, Muslim and
Sikh communities and beyond throughevents and
resources that unitefollowers of allfaith traditions
around sharedvalues andexperiences of the Holy.
“It’snot possibleforone to saythat theylove
God, or whateverone calls the Holy, andhateor
trytodo
damageto another human being,” Dr.Guibord
wrot e. “The GuibordCenterwas establishedto
confront the distortions thatwe hold about one
another andto uphold that which is good.”
Dr.Guibo rd also servedduring its initial ive
yearsaschair of the boardofdirectorsofHousing
Works, aleading nonproitthatprovides essential

“Gwynne had an inherentrevulsionto anything

in those with whom she most stronglydisagreed.
That trait combined with her utterlydisarming
sense of humor and deep love of Godinall things
made herafriend to treasure.”Dr. Lo SpragueD
anny Cohen, a
distinguished
computer scien-
tist who helped
develop the first
digital visual flight simula-
tor for pilot training, early
digital voice conferencing
and cloud computing, has
died at his home in Palo Alto.
Cohen, who did much of
his research at USC, died
Aug. 12 at age 81. He was suf-
fering from Parkinson’s dis-
ease, his son David said.
Cohen was a graduate
student at Harvard Uni-
versity in the late 1960s when
he helped develop the first
computerized flight simula-
tion system on a general-use
computer. The design re-
created aircraft flight and
the landscape it traveled
above.
It was a revelation at a
time when easy-to-use home
computers didn’t exist and
typewriters and rotary
phones were still ubiquitous.
And it forever changed how
airlines trained their pilots.
Before the simulation
system, pilots were trained
using 3-D replicas, a me-
chanical design that was ex-
pensive and time-consum-
ing when having to change
out the airport being used
for training.
But digitally, “we could
switch out JFK and LAX in a
fraction of a second,” Cohen
told Wiredin 2012.
In the mid-1970s, while he
was a staff member at USC
—where he worked for 20
years at its Marina del Rey
Information Sciences Insti-
tute — Cohen was ap-
proached by the Advanced
Research Projects Agency, a
government organization
that develops new technol-
ogy for the military.
They asked if he could fig-
ure out how to send voice
communication through
ARPANET, a predecessor to
the internet.
“They wanted a secure,
fast way to send encrypted
messages,” Cohen told
Wired. With the help of other
researchers from across the
country, they designed the
first teleconferencing and
internet telephony in the
late 1970s. By 1978, they had
held their first conference
call.
“He realized that for real-
time communication it can
be better to lose some data
than to have a delay — that
is, when you’re doing a
Skype call you’d rather hear
a little static than have the
call stop for a minute and
then resume with what your
interlocutor said a minute
ago,” his son wrote in an
email.
In time, this early version
of voice-over IP evolved into
the ability to send voice and
video through cyberspace.
“My dad was making
things that he thought were
useful, fun and interesting,”
he said.
Cohen was born Dec. 9,
1937, in Haifa, Israel, to
David, an electrician, and
Dorit Ostreicher, the head of
an organization that offered
support to Israeli soldiers.
Cohen’s brother, about 10
years his junior, was born
with a congenital heart de-
fect and died as an infant.
Cohen picked up an in-
terest in flying as a boy
(eventually becoming a pi-
lot) and became interested
in computers in high school
after reading a newspaper
article on the subject.
As a young man in the
mid-1950s, Cohen was a
paratrooper in the Israeli
Army. In 1963, he earned a
bachelor’s degree in math-
ematics from the Israel In-
stitute of Technology.
He was married in 1961
and later divorced. His sec-
ond marriage also ended in
divorce, but it first bloomed
in what was perhaps the ear-
liest online dating
courtship.
The year was 1973, and
Delia Heilig was working a
graveyard shift as a comput-
er operator at the Informa-
tion Sciences Institute. Co-
hen had posted a puzzle
game in ARPANET and
Heilig submitted her solu-
tion.
Cohen was impressed
and sought her out — a sim-
ple venture at a time when
only several dozen comput-
ers were connected to
ARPANET, she recalled. He
found her and invited her to
fly.
In 1965, Cohen moved to
the U.S. to study at the
Massachusetts Institute of
Technology, where he
started developing the flight
simulator.
Years later, he trans-
ferred to Harvard Uni-
versity, where he completed
the simulator with professor
Ivan Sutherland, who in-
vented the Sketchpad com-
puter interface system.
He earned his PhD in 1969
and became a Harvard fac-
ulty member soon after-
ward. Cohen also taught at
UCLA briefly in the late
1970s. He wanted to take
scuba diving classes at the
campus but was told he
needed to be faculty to do so,
Heilig recalled. So he signed
up to teach a computer sci-
ence class and, in exchange,
learned to scuba dive.
Curious and always the
problem solver, Cohen built
the first digital libraries for
quicker and better informa-
tion access, worked on an e-
commerce project, and cre-
ated the precursor of today’s
cloud-based technology. He
also applied the terms Big
Endian and Little Endian —
taken from Jonathan Swift’s
satirical 1726 novel “Gulli-
ver’s Travels” — to computer
science in his 1980s article
“On Holy Wars and a Plea for
Peace,” which analyzes the
order of bytes.
Cohen worked at Sun
Microsystems Laboratories
(which later merged with
Oracle) as an engineer for
more than 10 years. He re-
tired in 2012 and was in-
ducted into the Internet Hall
of Fame that year.
Heilig recalled her ex-
husband as being playfully
innovative, spontaneous
and fun. “He never drank be-
cause he thought there
might be a plane in need [of]
a pilot,” she said.
And Cohen was a practi-
cal joker who over the years
published articles under the
name Professor J. Finnegan,
a fictional coauthor, of
Oceanview University in
Oceanview, Kan.
“Some of those articles
were spoofing academic
work which he considered to
be not worthwhile or not sig-
nificant,” said Stephen Cas-
ner, a friend and retired
computer scientist.
His passion to create and
test the possibilities of tech-
nology, Cohen once said,
was this: “Always remember
that just because we don’t
know how to do it is not a
reason for us not to do it.”
He is survived by his son,
ex-wife and two grandchil-
dren.David Cohen

the digital age
By Dorany Pineda
ASanta Ana father was
arrested this week on suspi-
cion of severely beating his
13-day-old child while under
the influence of metham-
phetamine, authorities said.Jonathan Reyes, 22, was
taken into custody Monday
after the baby’s mother
awoke from a nap to find the
infant with visible injuries
to his face and body, said
Cpl. Anthony Bertagna, a
spokesman for the Santa
Ana Police Department.
The baby suffered a skull
fracture, internal injuries
and tested positive for meth,
officials said.
On Thursday morning,
the child was still in the hos-
pital but was expected to re-cover, Bertagna said.
Reyes denied abusing the
baby but made incriminat-
ing statements, police said.
He admitted to officers that
he had used meth while car-
ing for his child as the baby’s
mother slept.
Police don’t know how
the child ingested the drug,
but Bertagna said the
mother was not a metham-
phetamine user.
It was not immediately
clear whether Reyes had
been charged.The Police Department
wants Reyes charged with
child abuse and committing
a crime while out on bail. He
was arrested in March on
suspicion of robbery and re-
leased after posting bond.
Bertagna said he used a
knife or box cutter to steal
from someone in a car.
Reyes is being held in the
Orange County Central
Men’s Jail in lieu of $170,
bail and was expected to ap-
pear in court Thursday, ac-
cording to inmate records.Father suspected of beating baby
Authorities say man
admitted using meth
while caring for child.
