Class Note 1963
Issue
January-February 2022
As Covid eased, planning for October 8-10 Homecoming mini-reunion cranked up in May. But by September concern over the Delta variant caused many class executive committee (EC) members and others to cancel. Undeterred, Sam Cabot, Ed Mazer, Mike Prince, and Chuck Wessendorf created a successful in-person and virtual fall mini, the first since 2019.
Friday night dinner split into two venues, Ariana’s at Lyme Inn in Lyme, New Hampshire, and Dunk’s Sports Grill in Hanover. Mike and Jeanne Prince, Ed and Charlene Mazer, Bob Silverman and Barbara Berlin, Bill and Carol Hindle and Steve and Diana Lewinstein gathered at Ariana’s; Sam and Deamie Cabot, Chuck Wessendorf and Mary Ellen Sullivan, George and Mary Jo Hellick, Gil and Debbie Knight, Tom and Betsy Coghlin, Bill and Petie Subin, and Bill “The Toe” Wellstead reunited at Dunk’s. Bill represented us in the parade. Chuck planned to attend his 101st consecutive Dartmouth football game, a streak beginning in 2009.
Next morning’s EC meeting was challenging. Ed Mazer and team worked with the College to book the spacious 1930 Room in Rockefeller Center and flawlessly link Zoom participants. By 8:40 a.m. president Sam Cabot was on the podium delivering his report and Ken Kvistad his prayer from Geneva, Switzerland, for deceased classmates, including recently departed EC members Marty Bowne and Bruce Coggeshall. Some 30-plus attendees enjoyed fascinating reports from football linebacker Joe Hefferman ’22, a class-sponsored athlete, and Ameena Razzaque ’21 and Alexander Kokoshinskiy ’22, sponsored community service interns. We launched planning of our 60th reunion, June 12-15, 2023. Our Dartmouth College Fund chair Bob Bysshe reported class contributions totaling $427,000 this year.
Dartmouth’s victory over Yale was celebrated at Dowd Country Inn in Lyme, New Hampshire, by Dick and Pam Booma, Sam and Deamie Cabot, Tom and Betsy Coghlin, Frank Finsthwait and daughter Elizabeth, George and Mary Jo Hellick, Bill and Carol Hindle, Gil and Debbie Knight, Steve and Diana Lewinstein, Ed and Charlene Mazer, Mike and Jeannie Prince, Bob Silverman and Barbara Berlin, Bill and Petie Subin, Dick Swett, Bill Wellstead, Chuck Wessendorf and Mary Ellen Sullivan, and Art and Sandra Williams.
