Class Note 1999
Issue
September-October 2020
Hello, ’99s!
Sara Zrike updated me on her family news. She has a new baby, named Isabella Sara Casey, who was born on February 7. “Her dad, Ryan Casey, and I were supposed to get married on August 1 of this year, but I’ve had to postpone the wedding. We bought a new house in Roslindale, Massachusetts, and both work for the Boston public schools. He is a math teacher and math coach and I am a director of instruction at one of the bilingual schools in the city.” Congratulations, Sara and Ryan!
Let us also give a rouse to our class treasurer, Jeffery Loeb, and Ashley Feder, who were married in June at San Moritz Lodge in California.
Abigail Marsh wrote an opinion piece for The Washington Post titled, “How We Can Keep Fear from Spiraling Out of Our Control,” published on June 23. Abigail writes, “We have endured denials of risk, confusing information, and inadequate tools with tragic consequences: needless deaths, shamefully inequitable outcomes for minority communities, and widespread fear and anxiety. But we need not succumb to fear. Instead, we should harness it to minimize transmission while making judicious efforts to serve higher goals—educating our children, reducing inequities, and doing what we can to support local businesses and each other—to avoid compounding the tragedy” (www.washingtonpost.com/opinions/2020/06/23/era-covid-19-our-fear-doesnt…). Abigail is a professor of psychology and neuroscience at Georgetown University and authored the book, The Fear Factor: How One Emotion Connects Altruists, Psychopaths, and Everyone In-Between.
