Class Note 1946
Issue
Here at the New Jersey Shore we’re having a heat wave like no other. Temperatures in the 90s, so hope you’re all staying cool. Got some phone calls, and thank you all. Harvey Whiter is back up north (for the summer). He advises he switched coasts in Florida and now goes to Sarasota, with his boat, in the winter. Dewitt “Bud” Baker planned a trip to Germany but the Iceland volcanic ash canceled that. Instead he and Judy spent their vacation in Barcelona, Spain—olé! Dr. Milton Cooper is a truly remarkable man. He’s class of 1945 at the Dartmouth Medical School. That’s 65 years a physician! Some record, and Milt’s still working. Congratulations, Milt, for all the great work you’ve done. Talked to Gene Bokor. He and his wife, Gail, have moved from their lovely home in Tenafly, New Jersey, to a high rise in Fort Lee, New Jersey. They spent 60 years in Tenafly and I spent many happy hours at their home. “Boke” says the new digs have a great view of the Hudson River and he intends to keep a watchful eye on the passing ships—and I hope no airliners. October 28-30 is our mini-reunion and Tom Adams will be sending out the schedule shortly. He tells me we made our goal for the Alumni Fund. So thank you all. For your edification, “Heat Wave” is by Irving Berlin, 1933, and sang by Marilyn Monroe in There’s No Business Like Show Business in 1954. Now I ask you, how could you have survived without knowing that? Sadly, I have been advised of the deaths of these classmates: Raymond W. Arlt, February 20; Jay P. Bruemmer, October 8, 2009; Edward M. Scheu Jr., May 3; Fred L. Boyce, May 15; Wilbur F. Pillsbury, D.B.A., April 1; and Ora J. Curry, April 8. We extend our deepest sympathy to their families.
