Ryder Sherwin ’97 passed away on March 9 at home in Norwich, Vermont. Born September 28, 1974, Ryder spent his life in the Upper Valley. A fourth-generation Dartmouth graduate, he majored in geography and participated in a French foreign study program. He also belonged to Green Key Society and founded the Dartmouth Entrepreneurship Society. Jenn Tudder Walus ’97 remembered: “He was so funny and so sweet with a mischievous yet warm glint in his eye. We took a Latin dance class together junior or senior year and had so much fun, and our band Kodiak Jack rehearsed in his family’s barn. I’m so glad he came to our last reunion.” Mikael Morn ’97 noted: “He was a popular resident in Woodward our freshman year. People were often hanging out in his dorm room.” Jessica Russo Revand ’97 recalled Ryder “as my first amazing friend at Dartmouth. I was so impressed with his openness and his experience of the world. On the first night of school, Dawn Delizia ’97 and I stayed up all night with Ryder and some other guy just talking. I had never talked so much in my life! He and I would rollerblade through Hanover and go swimming off the rope swing. He was always up for having a good chat or a good time.” Ryder is survived by his mother, Jane; stepfather Eric; father Robert ’67; stepmother Christie; siblings Nicole, Zephyr, Brittany, and Tyler; and six nieces and nephews.
