Class Note 1963
Issue
July-August 2022
Nearly 100 classmates, wives, and guests experienced Mount Everest via Zoom, first in 1923 with George Leigh Mallory and Andrew “Sandy” Irvine, an ill-fated trip for the two, and again in 1986, when Tom Holzel and others attempted to discover what happened to the famous climbers only to be snowed out and having to return. “What’s important is the climb itself, even more than getting to the top,” observed Tom. Among classmates were Dick Kline, Jim Linksz, Denis Eagle, John Lo, Joe Ruwitch, Tim Ratner, Richard Morgan, Bill Gerchick, Skip Mattoon, John Morris, Jonathan Bates, Frank Ruch, Greg Moore, Ed Wirth, and Victor Poleshuck. You can see the entire presentation on the Dartmouth ’63 website.
Recently retired Rochester, New York, attorney Steve Jacobstein has plenty to keep him occupied: Steve and Kay have “seven kids with 14 grandkids ranging in age from 26 years to three months, scattered all over the country.” Among Steve’s children, Adam studied at Dartmouth, Stephanie at Cornell, Mark at Harvard, and Maggie at McGill. Two “grandkids” are grown and two are in college at Bates and Tufts. If family is not enough, Steve plans on reading, attending classes and “hanging with friends.”
Steve Frank hosted Bruce Coffey, Steve Rosen, Doug Cooper, Vinny Di Figlia, Howard Culver, Kim Morris, Charlie Parton, Steve Lister, and Bill Courtney at the Indian Ridge Country Club golf mini-reunion in Palm Desert, California, March 23. Mike and Jeanne Prince and Bob Silverman and Barbara Berlinwelcomed Peter Israelson, Bill and Carol Hindle, Roy Benson, and Ed and Charlene Mazer at the annual Ponte Vedra, Florida, mini, April 1-4. Rooms set aside for ’63s may still be available at Courtyard by Marriott Hanover Lebanon for the October 28-29 Harvard mini-reunion. Our 60th reunion is scheduled for June 12-15, 2023, reports chair Bill Subin. Bruce Baggaley was praised in friends of Dartmouth rowing newsletter for providing tips to the women’s rowing team at a Sarasota, Florida, competition.
I regret to report the passing of Lenny Waldbaum, James J. Bell, and Dick Harrow. Obituaries by Tige Harris will appear in the magazine online edition.
