Rosalie Cutter will be on a short leave from Class Notes, and I’ll be filling in until her return. Again, many thanks to those who responded to the newsletter survey. The following notes are from that survey.


Harry Bissell writes, “We are still spending summers in Maine at Blue Hill. However, we have moved in Florida to a wonderful retirement facility in Palm City called Sand Hill Cove. No golf but plenty of croquet!” Ed Crane keeps busy by “further organizing photos and notes Anne and I have from 50-plus countries.” 


Harris Hinckley reports, “I still work part-time as an aviation medical examiner. That seems universal for other physicians I know. I do exams on pilots; most are airline and some I’ve seen for more than 25 years. I stopped flying 20 years ago because of the expense, but I still miss it. Ten years ago I had to stop singing in my church choir after 50 years because of my hearing, and I very much miss that. Another thing—everyone has gotten taller or I’ve gotten three inches shorter. Otherwise I’m happy to still be able to work and generally enjoy myself.” 


Bruce Colegrove is “looking forward to my yearly visit to Enfield just outside of Hanover. My summer home is on Lake Mascoma. It allows for a calming down and a visit to Hanover and Dartmouth.” Nick Nichols enjoys a “very pleasant life in an Oakmont Gardens apartment [in Santa Rosa, California]. No cooking or housekeeping, fine friends, nearby lifelong-learning lectures, friendly church. We’re lucky to still be alive and well.”


Harry Hampton writes: “Attendance at monthly ’45 Norwich [Vermont] Inn luncheons continue to help keep the Dartmouth flame alive through the friendships each second Tuesday rekindles.”


We have lost more classmates since the last Class Notes. Please refer to our website for details.
