Class Note 1960
Denny Goodman writes: “I think it’s fair to say we never had a better mini-reunion, from Friday afternoon until late Saturday night. The afternoon presentations (Dick Levy, Tony Roisman, and Bob Hager) were all of interest. Hager’s included private interviews at NBC with Lester Holt and Andrea Mitchell. The class meeting was smoothly run by Dudley Smith. Rick Roesch’s tailgate tent survived the cold rain and the food was fine. The football game came out the right way, and a few of us, Bill Gundy and, I think, Joel Alvord, among them, sat out in the weather and survived. Some of us with technologically talented wives were able to watch on ESPN and stay dry; dinner at the Hotel Coolidge in White River Junction, Vermont, was a new and nice change from the past, something I think we might want to repeat next year.”
Conner Moore writes, “I had to postpone my visit with Chuck Brower due to a viral urinary tract infection. I had lost contact with him since our 50th reunion at Mamaroneck (New York) High School. Bob Colyer and Al Danson were present there also. Our group of four received an award for having the most freshmen from the same school each with a 4-point average or higher. I made the list by the skin of my teeth. The award plaque still resides in the front hall of the high school.”
Dale Boyse writes: “I practiced diagnostic radiology until I retired at age 65. It was a relief to not get calls from the hospital after working hours. I enjoyed my work much more than I thought I would. I had a private office started by my business-oriented partner. He took care of the business aspects and I could do diagnostic and therapy radiology without being hired by a hospital.”
Art Aaronson has retired from the field of pathology, where he specialized in molecular tagging, and is now performing as a pianist playing the classics of Beethoven, Brahms, and others. He maintains a friendship with his old roommate John Goodman from Gile freshman year.
