Starting Point founder was tireless and trailblazing advocate for children, families
Billie Osborne Fears created Starting Point, regarded today as one of the most comprehensive networks of childcare and early education services in the country.
A local advocacy organization noted that Osborne-Fears's "tireless advocacy for children is what led her to step up, without question, last year to co-chair the Coalition's Lead Safe Child Care Settings Subcommittee. She convened the table with with warmth and professionalism, always asking the tough questions and helping the Coalition forge a path forward. Under her leadership the committee commissioned Groundwork Ohio to complete the Lead in Child Care Report, a first-of-its-kind report that includes a 50 state scan of laws, regulations and policies related to lead and recommendations to create lead safe childcare spaces."
Osborne-Fears died September 4, 2020, after a short illness.
Graveside services will be held today, Saturday, September 19 at Lakeview Cemetery, 12316 Euclid Ave. [44106], under the auspices of Gaines Funeral Home, 5386 Lee Rd. [44137]. Face masks are required for graveside services.
