Pioneers in Endodontics.
Colleagues may not be aware of the articles in the journal ENDO – Endodontic Practice Today Vol. 11, Issue 2, Summer 2017 (Quintessence). The issue features the endodontic pioneers within different countries throughout the world. (Thank you to past IFEA Secretary, Dr Cal Torneck for advising of this.)
Vale Dr W.C. (Fred) Weinstein 1939-2017
Colleagues in IFEA and the broader endodontic community were most saddened to hear of the passing of Dr Fred Weinstein on October 15th 2017, following a brief illness.
Dr Weinstein was highly regarded nationally in Canada and internationally for his pioneering service to the profession. Amongst his achievements he was a past President of the CAE, and a long-standing IFEA Executive member which included IFEA Secretary/Treasurer (1989-1995), President-Elect (1995-1998) and IFEA President (1998-2001). Fred also served both IFEA and the CAE with distinction as the General Chair of the 7th IFEA World Endodontic Congress, held in Vancouver in 2007. It was the immense success of this Congress through Fred’s leadership and his Committee, along with the dedication of the IFEA Executive at the time, that reconfirmed IFEA as the premium umbrella international society of endodontic associations in the world, when IFEA was facing challenging times.
Fred was a true gentleman and befriended all with his genuine compassion, and his smile, resplendent in the Mounties’ uniform as ambassador for the IFEA 7th World Endodontic Congress and the CAE, is etched in the memories of all associated with the Congress. IFEA at the time passed on its sincere condolences to Dr Weinstein’s widow Heather, his family, friends and CAE colleagues.
Dr Weinstein’s obituary in the Vancouver Sun can be found here. Fred’s memory will be honoured at IFEA’s AGM, during the 11th World Endodontic Congress in Seoul, October 4-7, 2018. (Photos courtesy of CAE and Prof. Sam Dorn)
