Class Note 1951
Issue
May - Jun 2017
From the “We May Be Old but We’re Still Going Strong” file: When asked what gives him pleasure these days Art Worden responded, “I really love riding my motorcycle!” Aram Chorebanian’s great joy is skydiving—1,258 jumps and counting. Dick McFarland and Herb Knight are avid duck hunters. Ed Isbey is a fly fisherman. It was nice to hear from Ed. He lives in Asheville, North Carolina, is semi-retired from his ophthalmological practice but still teachesDuke University residents and looks after his orchids. Medicine and Dartmouth are continuing themes in his life; his son, daughter-in-law and Dartmouth granddaughter are all M.D.s.
Al Brout exemplifies the best of our “’51 Cares” program, reaching out regularly to classmates. He arranged a breakfast with Dick Bacon and Milt Olander, “the whole ’51 contingent in California’s Coachella Valley.” Dick, a widower for eight years, plays golf most days. Milt settled in Palm Desert after a career in banking and commercial real estate. Another connector, Peirce McKee, has been in touch with fellow ’51 swimmers Frank Bruch, Rob Jackson and Chuck Ryan.
Howard Glickstein is still involved with the law and civil rights issues. He teaches a couple of seminars and is dean emeritus of the Touro Law Center on Long Island. Earlier in his career he taught at Howard Law School and was dean of the Bridgeport Law School. In the early 1970s he was staff director of the U.S. Commission on Civil Rights, a key position also held by Berl Bernhard.In 2013 Howard received the Heywood Burns Award from the commission on civil rights of the New York State Bar Association.
Katie Pfaff describes a very full life of involvement with her (and Pinky’s) five children and as a volunteer tutor, helper at the local agency for the blind and driver of the elderly and disabled. She lives in Stamford, Connecticut. Joyce Leclair divides the year between Marian, Massachusetts, and Boca Grande, Florida, where she occasionally sees Elaine Bovaird.
With sadness, we report the recent deaths of Ray Lindquist, Merle Thorpe and Ed Weisenfeld.
