Class Note 1944
Issue
Jan - Feb 2016
On September 25-26 the class celebrated our last mini-reunion. The lunch and class meeting was open to all. Attendees included Penn Frost and son Carleton, Burt and Esther Bickford, Charlie Spallino, Jim Towsen, Fred and Trudy Daley, Richard and Carol Meyer, Joey Tate, Jean Allen, and me. The primary topic was the winding down of class activities. As Burt explained in his August letter, this is the final year for dues payments. Our budgetary fund will be depleted in 2019-20 by ongoing support of our class projects. The estimated 120 remaining classmates will continue to receive the DAM, but funds will not be available to help support reunion costs. In other business, the class officer roster will remain the same, there being no slate of 14 available candidates willing to debate. After a beautiful afternoon of wandering around Hanover, we regrouped for dinner at the Hanover Inn, with the addition of Jim Towsen’s lively family, as well as Ellie Stephenson and Anne Hier. A few hardy fans stayed after brunch on Saturday to have dinner and support Dartmouth’s win over Sacred Heart in a night game.
Those of you who have attended reunions over the last seven years will remember Jennifer Casey, director of class activities, who shepherded us through many events on campus. Jennifer has moved to a new position as director of academic coordination for advancement. We thank her for her cheery and unflappable guidance and wish her every success. It was a pleasure to work with her.
