Franklin Wofford McGill
Dec. 6, 1988 - Feb. 15, 2009
Franklin Wofford McGill died on Sunday, February 15, 2009. Frank was a beloved son, brother and friend to many. He was born in Austin, Texas on December 6, 1988 to Charmaine Denius McGill and J. Gordon McGill. Survivors include: his parents, Charmaine Denius McGill and J. Gordon McGill of Austin; his brother, G. Parker McGill, of Dallas; his grandparents, Charmaine and Frank W. Denius of Austin, and Mrs. Ruth Gordon McGill of Bryan; his aunt Ruth G. McGill, M.D. of Bryan, his maternal aunt and uncle, Beth and F. Wofford Denius of Los Angeles, California; and his cousin, Reagan Denius of Los Angeles, California. He also leaves behind a multitude of beloved friends. Frank attended Saint Andrew's Episcopal School in Austin from first grade until he graduated from Middle School in 2003. He then went on to graduate high school from The Hyde School in Bath, Maine in 2007, where he was an avid sportsman, football, basketball, and lacrosse player. Frank loved being outdoors and in the wilderness. Frank's life would seem too short to many, but those who were touched by him understood that his life's experiences gave him a wisdom far beyond his years. Kind and thoughtful, Frank had a gift for knowing what people needed in troubled times and he willingly and gracefully shared his hard-earned wisdom in times of need. Frank will be missed every day by his family and friends and we say to Frankie, as one smart bear once said ... "If you live to be a hundred, I want to live to be a hundred minus one day, so I never have to live without you." - Winnie the Pooh. A memorial service will be held for Frank at the Episcopal Church of the Good Shepherd, 3201 Windsor Road, Austin, Texas, at 11:00 a.m. on Saturday, February 21, 2009. In lieu of flowers, the family asks that donations be made to Saint Andrew's Episcopal School or to the Hyde School in Bath, Maine in Frank's memory. Obituary and guestbook online at wcfish.com.

Mr. and Mrs. McGill and Parker...
I can't imagine what you're all going through right now. I only got to know Frank over the past year and my short time with him was always fun. Frank is one of the nicest, sweetest and most genuine people I've met. I will miss his friendly smile and welcoming hugs. He always made those around him feel so good. My heart is with all of you.

Dearest Gordon and Charmaine,
My deepest sympathy goes out to you and your family, at this time. Frank was not only special, he was an extraordinary person. I am lucky to have known Frank for the time that I did, which was much too short. He will always have a special place in my heart, which he touched every time I saw him. I am glad that I saw him for a haircut only two weeks ago. I will cherish that memory. There was a connection between us that was unspoken for years, until one day as I was trimming up his hair, we agreed that we related to one another spiritually. It was a unique conversation between two people, he being much wiser than his years. Yesterday when I got the news, I could not control my tears, and know that I still don't quite know what "little Frank McGill" has in store for me and all those he touched in his lifetime.
A few times yesterday I kept asking God "Why?" , as I am sure you both have. I came to my own conclusion that he was meant to be an angel in Heaven, to look upon others and guide them, even though he sometimes had difficulty guiding himself. I beleive that he is at peace now, and that his mind is calm, without worry or pain.
I will always remember his robust laughter and his shining. smiling face. You are both blessed to have had the years that you did with Frank, and I thank you for sending him my way back when he was about 13 or 14 for that first haircut of many to follow. I will never forget him. Ever.
Much love to you both,
Diana Rutledge (Frank's hairstylist)

It is with great sadness and Hyde heart that our condolences are sent. Deans first roomate and friend at Hyde was Frank, and it was then that their bond was created. Dean and I had the pleasant opportunity to share in a Hyde weekend with Frank as our student facilitator, it was then that I began to get to know Frank on a personal level and knew that the depth of his voice mirrored his observant wisdom. We can only imagine the pain and sorrow you are feeling...and know that its with lifes quiet moments and stored memories that you will feel peace. Our deepest sympathies to you during this difficult time.

Dear Mr. & Mrs. McGill,
I was so upset to hear the news about Frank. I first met him several years ago at Hyde when he was a student intern at an FLC I had with my son Brendan, Colin's younger brother. I had heard Colin speak about him before that, often in context with his friend Will Thomas. I will always remember his beautiful smile, easy laugh, and DEEP voice! My heart aches for what you and your family are feeling right now. I am praying for all of you. May the Lord bring you comfort and peace as only He can. Frank will live on in the hearts and memories of his friends at Hyde forever.

Over the years, she has shared many great and happy stories of Frank, and those memories will always be treasured and close to our hearts.Thank you all for bringing him into our lives and allowing us the chance to know him.
Parker, a special prayer goes out to you as you too hold a special spot in our hearts.

Dear Charmaine and Gordon: Lanny and I were devastated and so saddened by the news of Frank's death. Just the other day Ally told me that she felt that Frank was her soulmate, and that he would always have a special place in her heart no matter where their lives led them. Frank had a special place in our hearts as well. I still remember meeting him for the first time with you at a San Francisco restaurant a few years ago. He seemed to glow from within, with that great grin and shining eyes. I don't know where comfort can come after such a tragic loss, but hope and pray that in time it will come to you. With love, friendship, and respect, Carolyn Bryant

Charmaine, I haven't talked with you since college, but I have always had a fondness for our times together. I know that my words cannot comfort, but please know that you are not alone in your sorrow. When my sister died, Psalm 121 told me where to find the strength to go on and I share that with you now. May God hold all of you close and give you peace. All my love, Carol Williams Arnold

Franklin Wofford McGill
Born in Austin, Texas on Dec. 6, 1988
Departed on Feb. 15, 2009 and resided in Austin, TX.
Franklin Wofford McGill died on Sunday, February 15, 2009. Frank was a beloved son, brother and friend to many. He was born in Austin, Texas on December 6, 1988 to Charmaine Denius McGill and J. Gordon McGill.

The faculty and staff of Casner Christian Academy is remembering the McGill and Denius families in your sorrow. I especially remember precious Frank in three's when you first came to us. He loved his new school and making friends. Mostly, he loved playtime and the rocks on the playground. In fours, he had his "running buddies" in Mrs. Russell's class and they enveloped the day. I remember him fondly in Mrs. Baker's fives in the Christmas and spring programs. I hope your happy memories will sustain you through this sad time and that God's grace will surround you as His love embraces you. To Grandpa Denius, I especially remember you proudly watching Frank as he raised the flag. God gives us memories. With sincere christian sympathy, Lucille Casner

Words can not express the sorrow that I feel for all who will be missing a good friend and family member as I am sure Frank was.
Although I only met him in passing at the Hyde School my Son Alex was quick to remind me that he was always a caring and good friend to him. That means so much to a Mom who sends her child away to school especially under trying circumstances as some of us did.
As a Mom the one thing I wish I could do right now is just wrap my arms around Charmaine to try to take away some small bit of pain for just a moment if it were possible. God bless.

Charmaine and Gordon, we met on a wilderness FLC in Maine a couple of years ago. I have beautiful pictures of the three of you, and would like to share them with you. I have sent them to Brian Thompson (who was at the funeral services) and he said he would get them to you, however, If i have an email address, I will be happy to send them to you.
I respect the love and sacrifice you have made for your beautiful, sensitive son. May his tender, profound spirit fill our lives with awareness that each of us are vulnerable and frail, and our lives are gifts. My love and support for you in this time.

Frank McGill (1988-2009) (http://https://www.hyde.edu/podium/default.aspx?t=40561)
2/27/2009
"Now I know I have a heart, because it's breaking." – The Tin Man
I just returned from Austin, Texas where I attended the memorial service for Frank McGill '07, a Hyde-Bath graduate who took his own life on February 15. Given that the Tin Man captures my feelings, I initially figured I'd keep them to myself. On second thought, that doesn't seem right.
For one thing, Charmaine and Gordon McGill have chosen to try to help others by being open about their son’s struggles right down to his final decision. (The inspiring rector at the service spoke eloquently about the 1 million people each year around the world who choose to end their own lives.) For another, Frank was simply a great kid. A partial list of adjectives that quickly come to my mind would include athletic, considerate, creative, gentle, handsome, kind (!), reflective, studious, and very well dressed. Given the hundreds of people who overflowed the church, it's safe to say that my assessment is not unique. Among the crowd were Hyde friends and families who flew in from all corners of the country with barely 48 hours notice.
Frank's inability to find serenity with his substance abuse issues inhibited his personal growth throughout his adolescence. But why would he take his own life? Some have suggested that he was overcome by guilt over the anxiety he felt he had brought to his parents and family due to his substance abuse. While that explanation makes some sense to me, I don't pretend to know.
I do know that more than three decades of working with kids have assembled a mega-collage of memories that are stored away in my mind like a bureau drawer overstuffed with yet-to-be-catalogued piles of snapshots and video shorts. There are two that will stay with me when I think of Frank McGill.
First is the "big brother" role he played with my daughter Scout, currently a Hyde junior. For over a decade, she and her sister Mahalia '09 have played that same role for their younger brother Harrison. The truth is that Harrison's autism has demanded and continues to demand a great deal of Scout's care and attention. All the way through middle school Scout gave so much to her brother but never had someone who could play big brother to her. Frank was that person for Scout during her freshman year. She joined me for the trip to Austin as she wanted to say good-bye to a true friend she will always cherish and respect. She was a great source of strength to me on this, the saddest of journeys.
Second is a lacrosse game that Frank played in his senior year. We were going up against one of the top teams in Maine and Frank's job was to cover their top attackman who was an offensive force. He was also quite full of himself and showed a tendency to taunt and "talk a lot of smack." I will never forget the hustle, determination, and class that Frank exhibited that day. He never took the "bait," never volleyed verbally with his opponent's insults. He just stayed focused. By taking the upper hand he drove his opponent nuts and led our team. For me, it was a fun day to be President of Hyde, the way it always is whenever one of our kids does us proud.
After the ceremony, family and friends retreated to a reception across the church courtyard. One thing for sure: Frank and his family have a lot of friends. A good friend of mine likes to say, "If you want a friend, you've got to be a friend." Whether or not Frank had ever heard that saying, the huge crowd of those who came to pay their respects to him showed that he surely lived it.
Rest In Peace, Malcolm Gauld

Too bad his parents are brain washed culties. Mel and Hyde should be sued for libel. The poor SOB is dead why the fuck does a fucking Gauld have to pull out his useless cock and piss on the poor kid's grave? This is completely beyond the pale. Fuck the Gaulds and fuck Hyde.
Pissed off former "student"

... to figure out that MBA + Hyde + SLBTS = his whole freakin adolescence spent at BM facilities. so much for "education for Life".

Frank's inability to find serenity with his substance abuse issues inhibited his personal growth throughout his adolescence
Is this a violation of a dead mans privacy, to publish as fact that he had "substance abuse issues?"

IMO it kinda sucks; big time.
To be fair, Malcolm did mention that Frank's parents wished to be open about Frank's "substance abuse" issues:
"For one thing, Charmaine and Gordon McGill have chosen to try to help others by being open about their son's struggles right down to his final decision."[/list]
That said, to go about it the way Malcolm did is, to my mind, a bit garish and lame. I can't really articulate it without sounding like a pompous old stiff, but there is something about his approach which rubs me the wrong way. Especially so soon after Frank's death! What if his parents changed their mind? This entry in Malcolm's blog was published just 12 days after Frank took his life.
Even had the McGills given Malcolm carte blanche, this still doesn't excuse the moral-laden, judgmental tone. The reason he suggested as a possible motive was simply not believable. But, hey, that's Hyde for ya. What else do you expect a cult leader to say? In the end, if it doesn't work out, it's always the kid's fault or inherent flaw. And if it does work out, it's always due to the "superior character education" they received at Hyde School.

I wonder if Mr. and Mrs. McGill know that MBA got shut down for abuse.

I never knew Frank, but my heart goes out to his family and friends.
Per usual, I am disgusted at the response by Hyde.

The text of the aforementioned Oregon DHS's Complaint and Order to Correct Conditions (http://http://www.fornits.com/phpbb/viewtopic.php?f=11&t=29131&p=350409#p350409) makes for some interesting reading. Much of the following could easily apply to Hyde:
[li]Mt. Bachelor Academy is a licensed Therapeutic Boarding School, located in a rural area, 26 miles east of Prineville, Oregon, licensed originally in 1988.[/li]
[li]MBA admits both male and female students who are from age 14 to 17.5 at the time of admission. The total capacity is 125 students and the length of stay is 14-16 months.[/li]
[li]In 1998, Mt. Bachelor was re-organized and became a program of Aspen Education group. Aspen was recently acquired by CRC Health Group, Inc.[/li]
[li]In March of 2009, MBA had approximately 77 staff and 88 boarding students.[/li]
[li]DHS investigated and determined that eight allegations of abuse involving five individual students were substantiated against the MBA in violation of OAR 407-045-0820(1)(f), (g), and (h).[/li]
[li]DHS investigated and determined that an allegations of abuse was substantiated against MBA's Executive Director in violation of OAR 407-045-0820(1)(h).[/li]
[li]MBA violated OAR 413-215-0076(3) regarding behavior management in that MBA required students to engage in an "emotional growth" curriculum, included but not limited to the Lifesteps program that was punitive, humiliating, degrading, and traumatizing. The "emotional growth" curriculum included, but was not limited to, sexualized role play in front of staff and peers, requiring students to say derogatory phrases about themselves in front of staff and peers, requiring students to reenact past physical abuse in front of staff and peers, permitting staff to engage in the usage of derogatory names, phrases and ridicule of students, and deprivation of sleep.[/li]
[li]MBA violated OAR 413-215-0076(6) regarding discipline policy in that students were required to engage in self studies and solo experiences for violating behavioral expectations. Self studies and solo experiences included, but were not limited to, strenuous work projects and camping alone on an island and in inclement weather conditions.[/li]
[li]MBA violated OAR 413-215-0076(6) regarding discipline policy, as indicated in MBA's parent handbook, in that students' access to the bathroom during class time was withheld and/or resulted in punishment for breaking class rules. In addition, students were required to do push-ups and/or run laps as a consequence for breaking class rules.[/li]
[li]MBA violated OAR 413-215-0076(6) regarding discipline policy in that an entire group of students was punished for the behavior of one student.[/li]
[li]MBA violated OAR 413-215-0076(6) regarding discipline policy in that MBA utilized bans as a consequence for inappropriate behavior. Bans were reported to last up to a week or longer and include the student not being allowed to talk, touch, or look at others and face the wall during meal time.[/li]
[li]MBA violated OAR 413-215-0076(6) regarding discipline policy in that students communication with parents was routinely censored as a means of controlling behavior. It was reported phone calls were ended if a student complained, students were told not to divulge any aspect of the "emotional growth" curriculum during telephone calls, and both content and ability to call were used as a disciplinary measure.[/li]
[li]MBA violated OAR 413-215-0606 regarding therapeutic services in that students were not provided adequate therapeutic services for their diagnosis or substance abuse issues, nor were students provided individualized treatment plans or services to address their significant needs. All students were required to participate in the Lifesteps program and other "emotional growth" curriculum regardless of the students' needs or vulnerabilities. Despite DHS' stated concerns, MBA recently introduced what it calls the Transitions program, which closely mirrors the Lifesteps program in that it contains the same deficiencies with respect to requiring participation regardless of students' needs or vulnerabilities.[/li]
[li]MBA violated OAR 413-215-0681(2) regarding treatment planning in that MBA failed to develop and deliver individualized services to students. All students were required to participate in the Lifesteps program and other "emotional growth" curriculum regardless of the students' needs or vulnerabilities. Despite DHS' stated concerns, MBA recently introduced what it calls the Transitions program, which closely mirrors the Lifesteps program in that it contains the same deficiencies with respect to requiring participation regardless of students' needs or vulnerabilities.[/li]
[li]MBA violated OAR 413-215-0051(2) regarding staff services in that staff members do not have the background and experience to be able to provide adequate care, safety, protections and supervision of students. MBA has only one staff member who is an Oregon licensed mental health professional, however that staff member reported that he does not meet with every student admitted nor does he regularly participate in the Lifesteps program or "emotional growth" curriculum. There are no staff members with qualifications to treat substance abuse or eating disorders and other mental health diagnosis.[/li]
[li]MBA violated OAR 413-215-0676(2) and OAR 413-215-0611 regarding educational services in that MBA fails to ensure students have adequate access to education or knowledge of their right to such education. Students are deprived of the ability to participate in academic classes while on self studies, solos or other disciplinary actions.[/li]
[li]MBA violated OAR 413-215-0606(10) and OAR 413-215-0611 regarding educational services in that MBA fails to meet the definition of a therapeutic boarding school which requires the licensee to be primarily a school and not a residential care agency. It was reported that MBA specializes in adolescents with significant emotional and behavioral disorders, many of whom are likely to have significant diagnosable psychiatric disorders. Such students are inappropriate for a therapeutic boarding school and have clinical conditions beyond the scope of MBA's license.[/li]
[li]MBA violated OAR 413-215-0046(1) and OAR 413-215-0676(2) regarding children and families fights and grievance policies in that students were denied access education for behavioral infractions. Students' rights in the student handbook do not include a right to participate in treatment planning and there is no right to file a grievance if the student is not in agreement with the service provided. Students' calls to parents are monitored and censored. Grievance policies and procedures are not made available to parents. Students' mail is opened and read prior to the student receiving it. Students with documented mental health and substance abuse disorders are not given access to appropriate therapy and treatment.[/li]
[li]MBA violated OAR 413-215-0651(1) regarding medication management in that MBA failed to have medication policies and procedures that ensure the safe management and administration of medication. Medication logs reviewed had errors including but not limited to missing dates, no record of missed doses, no record of method of administration, no identification of the person who administered the medication and no information regarding adverse reaction to the medication. There is no policy or procedure in place that addresses how or by whom medication is administered to students while the are involved in workshops that are part of the "emotional growth" curriculum or while involved in off-campus activities. It was also reported that during Lifesteps students do not always receive their medication. Additionally, some medications used to aid sleep are purposely withheld from students during the Lifesteps program.[/li]
[li]MBA violated OAR 413-215-0661 regarding supervision in that supervision of students during the La Mancha Lifestep in Europe was inadequate to protect students.[/li]
[li]MBA violated OAR 413-215-0681(3) regarding discharge planning in that student records lacked any discharge planning or instructions for students prior to or at their departure from school. Additionally, students records lacked documentation that the students or their family were involved any discharge planning.[/li]
[li]MBA violated OAR 413-215-0681(3) regarding incident reporting and notifications in that incident reports are not maintained in the client files and there were no incident reports for other events, including but not limited to an incident resulting in a concussion.[/li]
[li]MBA violated OAR 413-215-0056 regarding mandatory reporting in that student records indicate a student disclosed to a staff member prior sexual abuse but there is no indication in the record that the staff to whom the disclosure was made had complied with mandatory reporting requirements. Another student reported disclosing rape while at MBA to staff however there is no indication of a report to law enforcement or children's protective services.[/li]
[li]MBA violated OAR 413-215-0021(3) regarding governance in that the Executive Director has a substantiated finding of neglect for failing to ensure that individual students received the appropriate therapeutic services and were not subjected to activities that were coercive, intimidating, harassing, and/or humiliating.[/size][/li][/list]
