Class Note 2002
Issue
Jul - Aug 2018
Hello, ’02s.
Seth Smith sent me a fantastically detailed update about many ’02s!
“My wife and I moved to Ann Arbor, Michigan, in 2017 and had our second child, Preston Jason Smith, named for fellow ’02 Jason Taylor. When I was in Hanover last summer, I stopped by the Co-op for the obligatory green Dartmouth onesies.
“Summer of 2017 also allowed me to see Dave Reed and his wife, Anna ’03, down at their house in Duxbury, Massachusetts. It was lovely to sit down to a home-cooked meal with their three children. Our Dartmouth Grant reunion occurs each year with Erik Wang, Matt Sullivan, Geoff Smith, Jeff Kinkaid ’01, Riley Lochridge, Clayton McClintock, and Kwabena Akowuah. We have gathered every year since 2002, mostly at the Grant, but as far away as California, Montana, and Virginia. We will be back in the Grant this summer. We often talk of when we will invite spouses and children, but our antics seem to prevent others from coming.
“Joy (my wife, Westmont College ’01) and I spend significant time with Sarita Shoenebeck-Yardi and her family in the Ann Arbor area. In March we conducted an Easter egg hunt with a combined five children from both families, all 4 years of age and under.
In April Jason Taylor and I hiked Paria Canyon in Utah with a few close friends. It’s always good to be in the great outdoors with fellow alums. Ron June and I speak regularly. His family is doing well in Bozeman, Montana. He earned tenure recently and is gearing up for a sabbatical this summer to Spain.
“I would love to hear from other alumni in the food and beverage industry, specifically on the manufacturing and research-and-development side (perhaps via LinkedIn). That seems to be my calling in life. I’ve progressed through the ranks to plant manager, and enjoy leading others. I’d love to know how others took a path from Dartmouth into the food and beverage industry.”
I also received a happy update from Jennifer (Ain) Lippman. Her son, Benjamin Reid Lippman, was born February 8. Benjamin was welcomed by big brother Ryan, 6, and big sister Juliette, 3.
