Class Note 1948
Issue
Jan-Feb 2020
I received a very nice note from John Price, who wrote, “On our drive home from Florida in April we stopped in Chapel Hill, North Carolina, to see Sam Katz and his wife, Kathy. I hadn’t seen Sam since Dartmouth Medical School 69 years ago. Kathy, who is also a retired pediatrician, mentioned that she had traveled to Africa 60 times in her work with children. Barbara and I got married two years ago. We had been together for 22 years and figured it was about time. Barbara is a retired teacher and has been a docent at our local art museum for several years. I continue my private practice of psychiatry two days a week. The rest of my time in the summer is divided between tennis and gardening. I specialize in hybridizing daylilies. In the winter I play tennis and paint abstract art. I chose abstract because I can’t draw people worth a damn. I have many fond memories of Dartmouth and look forward to our next reunion.”
Warren Daniell advises that he and Dot regularly visited their daughter, Beth ’77, twice a year but were unable to do so in 2019. Beth recently retired after a successful career with the Oregon Department of Revenue and was able to visit with her parents for 10 days last October. They moved to Newbury Court retirement home in Concord, Massachusetts, last year and went through the daunting task of selling and downsizing their residence after 50 years from 10 rooms to two rooms. Warren said it was time to make the move, which was successful in every way. His new hip has decreased his mobility and eliminated his customary golfing and jogging. Warren has been a very successful head agent for the Dartmouth College Fund since 2008. Warren noted that he came to Dartmouth from Millinocket, Maine, in the summer of 1944 for one semester, then spent two years in the Navy studying and becoming an electronics technical mate. He returned in 1946 to complete his education at Dartmouth and Thayer in 1949 and 1950. He married Dot in 1951 and then joined Anderson-Nichols, a Boston-based architectural engineering firm where he eventually became co-partner. They sold the business in 1999 to Dewberry, a large national company. Warren continued as a consultant for six years before retiring.
