Class Note 2003
If you’ve spent any time on Facebook recently you’ll have noticed how many babies our classmates have been popping out recently! I tried to track down as many as I could, but please send word of any that I have missed.
Betsy Holder Bradley wrote to say, “Priscilla ‘Lilly’ Elizabeth was born on May 26, 2010, and joined her big sister Babette Virginia, who was born on August 29, 2007. My husband, Ryan Bradley (Loyola ’03), and I live in my hometown of Champaign, Illinois, where we both practice law and are busy chasing after our two girls!”
Abby Horowitz and her partner, Eli (Cornell ’06), welcomed their son Meir on December 13. “Being a parent is a real trip so far! We are still in Atlanta, where I work at Emory managing the relationship between the university and the bookstore vendor. Off hours I’m working on my letterpress business, Lulov Press, which specializes in Jewish stationary and bar/bat mitzvah invitations. Looking forward to returning north one of these days and introducing my two men to Hanover!”
Kristin (Todd) Freitag and Heiko Freitag (Tuck ’03) said hello to their beautiful daughter Karoline last November, and from the looks of it it’s been a happy, busy time for Kristin and her family ever since. Also welcoming a daughter were Megan Bridget Riley Kenney and Matthew Kenney ’04. Their little girl Bridget Isabel (named after her great-grandmothers) was born on December 28, 2010. The new family lives in Alexandria, Virginia where Megan is currently working as an attorney for the National Taxpayer Advocate.
Bryan Bollinger and Katherine Rue Bollinger are also happy to announce the arrival of their son Cedric Kent on October 26, 2010. Finally, Kathleen Reeder Paley let me know that “on December 6 my husband, Matt Paley (Berkeley ’02), and I were lucky enough to add a little guy to our family. Maxwell Charles Paley (a.k.a. Max, a.k.a. Maximum Trouble) has kept us busy ever since. We can’t wait for him to meet other alum babies!” Needless to say it definitely looks like we’re going to need quite a bit of extra room at our 10-year reunion!
We also have congratulations of a different kind to bestow on Lara Dotson-Renta. “So on February 4 I officially defended my doctoral dissertation at UPenn and am a Ph.D.! I will walk in May’s graduation ceremony. In other news I have also become a contributor to Muftah.org, a magazine dedicated to Middle Eastern/North African issues. Adam Dotson and I are headed toward our fifth-year wedding anniversary and our daughter Catalina will soon turn 2! Where did the time go?”
No idea, Lara. No idea.
