1968

The short, chilly days of autumn are upon us in Maine, and they cause me to recall longingly that sunny and warm day in July when I visited ole college roomie Joe Grasso at Goose Rocks Beach. A brisk walk on the beach, a couple of sets of tennis, lots of good conversation with Joe and daughters Amanda and Caitlin, and a sampling of Joes culinary skills: what more could one ask for? When he's not relaxing in Maine,, Judge Grasso continues to preside over the Lowell District Court in Lowell, Mass.

Reunion chair Ed Heald and his band of volunteers are off and running. I hope that many of you have responded already to the committee's first mailing. If not, you will have another opportunity shortly to get back in touch with Ed because a second mailing is on its way. Please call the classmates you would especially like to see at the Reunion and make sure they return their cards.

In case you don't know the important players working hard to make our 25th a well attended and meaningful event, here they are: Ed Heald, reunion chair; Pete Weston, treasurer; Eric Jones, entertainment; Jim Johnson, activities for children and other family members; Greg Marshall, memorial service; KevinO'Donnell, mementos, lasting memories of the 25th; Paul Rizzi, food, dining; JohnO'Shea, beverages; Larry Barnet, class handbook; Dave Stanley, class symposia.

So long for now. Please send me your news.
