It was great to hear about some new additions to the ’98 family in late 2011. Betsy and Khalid Roberts announced the arrival of Paige Elizabeth Roberts on November 1, 2011. Paige weighed in at 8 pounds, 4 ounces, and was 21 inches long at birth. She and her parents are doing great. The Roberts family is living in Woodbridge, Connecticut. Congratulations, Betsy and Khalid!


And Maya Lodish and Jay Zimmerman welcomed Talia Hannah Zimmerman on November 17, 2011. Talia weighed 7 pounds, 14 ounces, and was 19 inches long. Big sister Isabelle is happy about and adjusting to her new role and is keeping her parents entertained with her observations about little Talia. The Zimmerman family lives in Bethesda, Maryland. Congratulations, guys!


I also wanted to let the class know about a change in the class officer ranks, as well as to send out an invitation to join us in class activity planning. After three and a half great years Anil Doshi is stepping aside from his post as class president and I am going to step in to fill out the rest of his term. Anil, thank you so much for all the time you put into our class and for everything you’ve done!


If you can believe it, we are just a year and a half out from our next big reunion! I will be talking with the other class officers in the coming months to set a plan for the last 18 months of this term and to plan for our 15th reunion. We would love to have help from any and all of you! If you’re interested in participating—either with planning a mini-reunion in your area, helping with the 15th reunion committee or helping out in any other way—please reach out to me using the contact information listed here. Any bit of time or energy that you can spare will be put to good use! Have a great spring, everyone!
