Class Note 1945

A recent heartwarming tribute came in from Don Sisson’s son, David, on his mother, Ruth, who passed last September at age 92. She and Don moved to Kendal at Hanover in 2002 and he passed in 2010. She graduated from Bancroft School and went on to receive a B.A. in music at Mount Holyoke in 1947. She and Don first settled in Tenafly, New Jersey, and later in New Canaan, Connecticut, and then in New London, New Hampshire, before their last stop in Hanover. She was always active at every location in amateur theatrical productions, playing the piano. She enjoyed entertaining Kendal residents at the keyboard. Ruth and Don are survived by two sons and one grandson.

We’re saddened to advise everyone of our loss of Bill Swartzbaugh, who died last October. He left two sons and a daughter. His wife, Jean, predeceased him.
