Lincoln College philanthropist Bernard “Bernie” Behrends shares a passion for education espoused by the prominent gentleman for whom his hometown was named. In his first political announcement in 1832, Abraham Lincoln wisely noted “Upon the subject of education, not presuming to dictate any plan or system respecting it, I can only say that I view it as the most important subject which we as a people can be engaged in.” In keeping with Lincoln’s sentiment, Bernie Behrends has devoted his personal time and financial resources to provide higher educational opportunities for those less fortunate in the community.
The Behrends philosophy of charity was instilled early in childhood through the teachings of the Lutheran Church. Bernie and his older sister Anna were raised by their widowed mother and grandfather to help others when possible through service to their church and the public. They were taught to view their contributions as a privilege that would ultimately strengthen society as a whole. Blessed by success and prosperity as adults, Bernie and Anna have sustained these fundamental Christian principles through consistent and generous donations to their alma mater, Lincoln College, hoping the recipients of their charity will someday “pay it back” by helping others as well.

We’ve been in denial the last few months here at Omni, refusing to accept the fact that Tracee had decided to move back home to South Carolina to be closer to her family. She gave over three month’s notice of her departure but time moves on, and now we are forced to say goodbye. Her last day in the Omni office is today. (sniff sniff) We had a fun-filled going away celebration last Wednesday, shopping downtown and eating a delicious lunch at Osaka Japanese Restaurant. Today still seems awfully sad and arrived too quickly. Nevertheless, we have been fortunate to work with Tracee these last three years at Omni. She is a dedicated, hard worker and just a super fun person. We’re going to miss her, no doubt about it. But we wish her all the best and know the future holds great things for her! DANG Tracee, goodbye!
