Class Note 1944
May - Jun 2014
My apologies for missing the last columns. Penn’s newsletter has been doing a fine job of keeping you current. The mini-reunion was a great success—good weather, terrific meals at the newly renovated Hanover Inn and Dartmouth beat Yale. Next up is the 70th reunion September 19-21. We are hoping to have a record turnout for this momentous occasion. The College is providing free rooms for all classmates and widows and all meals will be provided for the weekend. How can you resist such an invitation? Penn will provide additional details in the next newsletter.
Sadly, we have lost a long-serving and prominent member of the class, Stanley Barr. Stan served as class agent and treasurer for many years and served as Alumni Council representative. He was also well known for his annual Lobster Bash and for tipping the Marching Band so it would play at our tailgates. Stan enjoyed his involvement with the class, and will be sorely missed. We have also been notified of the deaths of Joseph John Buckley, M.D., who made history in the field of anesthesiology, and Fred Charles Cohn. We extend our condolences to their families.
