1942

The Great Blizzard of 1966 has come to Rochester and its vestiges have not departed at this writing.

Although he leaked the word to the Lipp rather than supplying advanced releases to this writer, it is impossible not to forgive Rochester's heretofore foremost and gayest bachelor, when one considers the excitement and stress endured by Dick Deverian prior to his October wedding to Ruth Feuerstein. While I seldom admit there is anything in the Newsletter worthy of inclusion in these notes, here is an exception and an item demanding repetition. Best wishes to bride and groom from the Class.

Reporting from Pasadena, Calif., for TomHarriman, his wife Ellie advises they are moving with corporate headquarters to New York City. The Harrimans will reside at (and I quote) "Baldwin Farms South, Greenwich, Conn., after a detour to Florida while our van is en route. We'll be just south of the Merritt Parkway, Round Hill Road Exit, so hope '42's will stop when in the vicinity. Our boys are at college out here having transferred from Princeton and Swarthmore. Rick is at Stanford and Tom Jr. at University of California at Berkeley. Tom and I are looking forward to renewing Smith and Dartmouth acquaintances in the east, as well as being near enough to make our 25th reunions." Plan to join them at the latter.

We report with sadness the untimely death of Peter, son of Kay and John Middleton. Peter was age 22 and a senior at Colgate University. The sincere sympathy of the Class is extended to the family.

It was my pleasure on a recent wintry evening to join Tim Crane and Bob Schoonmaker in interviewing local high school seniors applying for admission at the college. Like myself, they are loyal Kodakers. I am happy to report that all is well with Tim, Bob, and their families. We hope the same is true with you and yours.
