- I got a phone call today from the president of Dignity/Philadelphia, Mary
- Louise Cervone. She called to tell me that our friend, Dominic Bash, had
- died on Sunday, January 24, 1993 after a long and painful struggle with the
- A.I.D.S. virus. Dominic was a member of Dignity/Philadelphia and one of its
- past Dignity presidents. He referred to himself as THE FOUNDRESS of
- Dignity/Philadelphia.
-
- He had a beauty salon called THE ABBEY which was located at 2216 South St. I
- went through a period of wanting the perfect lesbian hair-style so I went to
- Dominic and he said, "Don't worry honey, I'll take care of it." He gave me
- what he called the "contempo-lesbo look." I just can't believe he's gone.
-
- St. Luke's and the Epiphany (on 13th St. between Pine and Spruce Streets in
- Center City - Phila.) will be the location of his memorial service at 2pm on
- Saturday, January 30, 1993. Dignity/Philadelphia and St. Luke's will be
- co-sponsoring it.
-
- I really hate that this is my first posting, but this has to be shared so that
- all of Dominic's friends will have an opportunity to come to his memorial
- service and have a small sense of closure.
