The “Sunday of Summer”
S
omeone coined August as the “Sunday of Summer.” That unattributed quote is extremely accurate. The month of August always has been full of excitement and antici-

pation for me, through all stages of my life. As a child, we always viewed August as an opportunity for the last gasp of summer before fall “began” in September. The days were still long and hot; we were able to stay out late, ride our bikes, have squirt gun fights, and run around the neighborhood with our friends. By August, organized summer sports were over, school was still a few weeks away, and every day was a chance to enjoy the weather and have fun. There was that sense of anticipation in returning for the new school year as well. We would see returning classmates that we had not seen in months, new friendships to make, different classrooms to visit and teachers at the school to interact with. For those reasons, August always symbolized “a new beginning” to me, since it came

with a familiarity but also a chance to head in a new direction. It wasn’t necessarily a fresh start, but it was an opportunity to do something different. These feelings of excitement and anticipation with August didn’t change dramatically as I got older. In high school, August meant the end of summer jobs working at the mall, the golf course, or on the masonry crew, and the return of a new school year, with Friday night football games, Homecoming traditions, fall soccer and reunions with friends. These same feelings went along with college at the University of Illinois and law school at Loyola University–New Orleans, after the first-year apprehension of unknown surroundings and new friends. Time and time again, August always brought back comfortable surroundings, familiar fac-
BY JOSEPH FUSZ PRESIDENT es and the opportunity to explore something new. As an adult, the magic of August faded away for a time. Despite the return of my beloved Fighting Illini, the Chicago Bears and fantasy football, August didn’t bring the same sense of excitement and anticipation as it used to for me. Other than two trips, one to Brazil and one to Portugal to see my family, for years there wasn’t much exciting ever going on in August. Working inside of an office in Waukegan and Chicago never gave you much time to enjoy the weather during the week, and the month didn’t arrive with a brandnew group of coworkers, or with friends you hadn’t seen in weeks. For several years, while I would still have the initial reaction that “a new year” was starting in August, it quickly succumbed to the reality of adult life and the cynicism that
comes with age. Fortunately, children often help us to change. To quote a Brazilian actress from a cinematic masterpiece (Deadpool 2), “Kids give us a chance to be better than we used to be.” My kids love everything about the summer: the hot and humid weather, the grilled dinners, the gritty sandboxes, the endless water balloon fights, and the stickiness of the popsicles and ice cream cones. They complain that they are going to bed when it is still light out, and they talk nonstop about their experiences at summer camp. Moreover, the anticipation for the new school year has returned as well. My kids are nervous about new classrooms in school this month and potentially riding the dreaded school bus, but are also excited for the purchase of school supplies and new shoes, and seeing their friends in person again. They brought back the magic of August for me, and once again it is a month full of anticipation and excitement in my life. For our Lake County legal community, August will be a month of excitement and anticipation of the coming year as well, especially as we come out of the pandemic restrictions that have been in effect since March of 2020. It is anticipated that more and more cases will return to in-person court, giving our members the opportunity to return to familiar surroundings at the courthouses and to see old colleagues and friends for the first time in months, if not years. It is believed that a greater number of mat-
ters will be able to be set for trial in the fall, bringing resolution to litigated matters that have unfortunately been drawn out longer than anyone could have anticipated. Additionally, as restaurants and other establishments in the Waukegan area reopen to full capacity, the beginning of new friendships or the reestablishment of old bonds can take place. August also traditionally marks the return of many Lake County Bar Association events. Committees that have taken a break for the summer will begin to meet again, planning their monthly meetings, annual seminars and reoccurring CLE opportunities for the upcoming bar association year. In addition, the Lake County Bar Association will be announcing the Fall Luncheon Schedule, which are regular monthly events in September, October, and November, as well as the return of the December Holiday Party. But as we look forward to the year ahead with excitement and anticipation, we must also be mindful that the year is uncertain as variants of the virus continue to surface and cause concern in our society. As we begin our new bar association year, I would ask that you all reach out to your committee chairs and let them

know what you would like to see for the coming year. Introduce yourself to our new Executive Director Gregory Weider, and help him become a central part of our community. Moreover – be active in our bar association: volunteer to work on planning an event, write a Docket article in your area of legal expertise, or offer to be a speaker at a CLE seminar. Participation from our membership brings life to our ideas and our events, and along with seeing each other again in familiar surroundings, it will help to make this a year to remember. So, if we are in the “Sunday of Summer,” take it all in and enjoy it to the fullest. Soak in the last month of consistently warm weather, plan something fun, and enjoy the precious moments with your loved ones and friends. We have much to be thankful for, and an entire bar association year to look forward to with ex-

A Tribute to a Good Guy
I
n June, the Lake County legal community lost former Lake County Bar Association (LCBA) President Bernard Winter.
4
The Docket
He was Bryan Winter’s father and my father-in-law. His passing may not have caused much of a stir, but his story is notable. Bryan
The
Chief Judge’s Page and I received sympathy cards and had many conversations with attorneys that contained several common themes. Bernie welcomed everyone to the legal community, was committed to the LCBA, and was a gentleman lawyer. Bernie went out of his way to introduce himself to anyone he didn’t recognize at a gathering. Whether you were a brand-new attorney, or new to the county, he wanted to hear your story. He treated new attorneys as equals and encouraged them to get involved with the bar activities. The LCBA was glue that cemented his work life and his legal social life. The Fuqua Winter law firm always had 100% participation in LCBA activities/committees and six LCBA Presidents came from the firm over the years. In order of service:
BY CHIEF JUDGE DIANE WINTER Okel Fuqua, Ellis Fuqua, Bernard Winter, myself, Bernard Wysocki, and Bryan Winter all served as President of the LCBA. Bernie also served for many years on different bar association committees and even enjoyed performing in the Gridiron in his younger years. He received the LCBA “Good Guy” award for his pro bono service which, for some reason, involved being photographed in a cowboy hat. Bernie did not become an attorney to gain prestige or money, but according to Bernie, his goal was to be a law-abiding citizen and help others do the same. His first memory of wanting to become a lawyer was when he was stopped by a police officer driving a farm tractor on a city street in the western suburbs as a young teenager. The police
officer was very nice but advised him he needed a driver’s license and that slow-moving farm tractors were not allowed on Harlem Avenue, a busy street. As told by Bernie, this unremarkable episode was the first time he realized that his father, who had immigrated from the Netherlands, was not very knowledgeable of the laws and regulations of his new home country. It motivated him to go to law school and learn about the law so he could advise others how to avoid legal missteps. Once admitted to the bar, Bernie enjoyed helping people with problems commonly encountered with wills, trusts, probate estates, real estate, and contracts. He wanted his clients to know how the law could impact their lives and how best to complete legal tasks families commonly encountered. He had a calm, even
manner with his clients and worked hard to settle family disputes without litigation. The lawyers who knew Bernie described him as kind, caring, and always a gentleman. He never yelled, but his letters might get longer. He was always self-deprecating. His sentences typically began with, “Well I don’t know anything but…,” and then in the story that unfolded, you would figure out what you needed to do, but had not thought of yet. Even when he became the senior partner of one of the oldest firms in Waukegan, Bernie never dictated a result. Sentences were always phrased, “you might want to consider” and a brilliant solution to the problem at hand followed. Sometimes, he would also finish with the word “whatever.” For Bernie, “whatever” did not mean he cared less what course
of action you took, but instead the word indicated that you would be making the decision and were free to make your own mis-
takes. Even more importantly, it meant he would be there to help you clean things up if necessary. Although the profession has changed dramatically with the advent of Zoom court appearances and rapid-pace email exchanges, the professionalism displayed by Bernie throughout his career remains important and worthy of emulation. To his clients, Bernard Winter was more than just an individual with a law degree. He set a high standard of civility, practiced with honesty and integrity, and was always the gentlemen lawyer. His clients and colleagues respected his dedication to his profession. The story of the good guy, always polite and courteous, is a real- life story worth celebrating, and one I am proud to share.

The Docket
faced with ever more novel issues and demands on our attention. Folks are going back out, whether for work, vacation, or even just returning to the grocery stores for the first time in nearly fifteen months away. As attorneys, we’re often more attuned to these changes, not only in our own lives but also in the lives of our clients. In my own practice, I’m spending more time at in-person meetings and hearing about how happy everyone seems to be to be re-engaging with their colleagues, friends, and neighbors. While the personal reconnection aspects of the (hopefully) waning pandemic are cheery, on a larger level, much ink is being spilled on the impending end of the eviction moratorium, its ramifications on tenants, landlords, and the
BY DOUGLAS DORANDO PRESIDENT courts, and the impacts of COVID-19 on all sectors of the economy. Much of this still has an air to it of doom and gloom, rather than looking at the positive ways that people are reentering a real (as opposed to virtual) and social society. Now is a time to be mindful of how we want to re-engage with the world, both as attorneys and as human beings. The ABA reminds us that “when society confers the privilege to practice law on an individual, he or she accepts the responsibility to promote justice and to make justice equally accessible to all people.” This isn’t just a lofty statement that we should aspire to, but also one that reminds us of our obligations. Illinois Supreme Court Rule 756(f ) requires that we report, on an
annual basis, the amount of pro bono service and monetary contributions we make to organizations that provide legal services to persons of limited means or which contribute financial support to such an organization.1 I encourage each of you to take a few minutes, as the pandemic-focused world recedes, and consider how you want to hold yourself out in the world. Now is a time for real self-actualization2, and whether you want to show gratitude for having just made it through, or celebrate the lifting of all of the restrictions on things that we once took for granted, now is a time to give back. Think about how you can help aspire towards a truly just society. 1 2
