Class Note 1963
Issue
March-April 2022
These classmates took roads less traveled, achieving satisfying lives, while valuing their Dartmouth ties.
Following freshman year Evan Lasky studied at the University of Denver and became an active Dartmouth volunteer. “I loved the place,” said Evan of Dartmouth, serving as district enrollment director in Tucson, Arizona, and in Denver, where till 2009 he was CEO of Pak Mall Centers of America, an international packing and shipping franchisor. Evan and wife Sandy live in a community on land that once housed Lowry Air Force Base, U.S. Air Force Academy and Eisenhower’s Summer White House. Son Scott from Evan’s earlier marriage lives in Atlanta and two grandchildren are in New York City.
John Currier left Dartmouth in November 1961 to join the Army sharing barracks with Tell Schreiber, who has recently died. John returned to graduate from Dartmouth in 1966 with a degree in Russian language and literature and earned a law degree while serving as analyst in the National Security Agency. In 1982 John joined the legal department of defense contractor Sanders Associates, moved to Singer Co., and finished at BAE Systems. Married 55 years, John and Judith live in Leesburg, Virginia. Daughter Sarah is a hospital executive, son Johnathan, a teacher. The Curriers have three grandchildren.
Daryl Erickson decided in his freshman year to become a medical missionary, which he did for 10 years in El Ain, United Arab Emirates, before serving as general surgeon, 1985-2007, at Dartmouth-Hitchcock Clinic in Nashua, New Hampshire. Married during medical school, Daryl and Gina live north of Chicago, near daughter Robin, a corporate consultant. Son Dan works for a Christian conference center in California while Mark is a senior foreign service officer in Amman, Jordan. The couple has six grandchildren.
Tom Coghlin’s niece Julie Reiber, cast member of Broadway’s Come from Away, appeared on NBC’s Christmas tree lighting. Mike Rie suggests reunion of New York ’63s at Manhattan’s Dartmouth Club. He and Gloria live in White Plains, New York, and have three children and three granddaughters.
I regret to report the passing of Denny Toll. Obituaries by Tige Harris appear in the magazine online edition.
