Grosse Ile loses three great former educators BILL STEVENSON
Sad news from the Grosse Ile High School school community. Three giants in the school’s coaching and teaching history have passed away. Family and friends, former athletes and students and long-time colleagues mourn the deaths of Glen Bagnall, 92, Tom LaFramboise, 79 and Charlie Worden, 79. An outstanding athlete at Flint Northern High School, Bagnall graduated from Michigan State Normal before it became Eastern Michigan University and later studied at Central Michigan University. He taught biology and physical education at the high school and spent 36 years coaching basketball – all at Grosse Ile High School. In 1990, at his induction to the Basketball Coaches Association of Michigan Hall of Fame, Glen’s former athlete and then GIHS Athletic Director Bill Lowery presented the award, citing Glen’s accomplishments: “Glen has been Huron League Coach of the Year several times, four times in

the 1980s, Downriver Coach of the Year, Michigan High School Coaches Hall of Fame inductee, B.C.A.M. Region I Coach of the Year, 1987-88, and Detroit Free Press Metro Coach in 1987. “During his coaching tenure at Grosse Ile High School, Bagnall’s teams won 381 and lost 313. Over the years, Grosse Ile basketball under Bagnall won nine Huron League titles, 10 districts, and one regional. “Glen Bagnall served on the B.C.A.M. Executive Board since 1978, served as President in 1983 and ’84. He organized and was long-time Chairman of the Hall of Fame.” Those who knew Bagnall, remember him as a character larger than life, known for his colorful personality and imposing presence. He is survived by his children Leigh, Janis, Todd and their families, as well as his dear partner Dorothy DeFrain. A memorial is planned for later this coming summer.
