1962

Recently the New England Science Center acknowledged with gratitude the six years of service performed as secretary of the board by Erwin H. Miller. "Dusty" will remain as trustee of NESC, an organization devoted to educating the public to environmental issues and fostering a sense of stewardship to New England's and the world's environment. After Dartmouth and Yale Law, Dusty joined Bowditch & Dewey, where as a more "senior" partner, he practices estate planning and settlement, bank and corporate work, and counseling smaller family-owned corporations.

Dusty's first love is community service, serving presently as commissioner of the Worcester (Mass.) Cultural Commission, moderator at the First Baptist Church, secretary of the Boys and Girls Club of Worcester, and director of the International Artist Series. Dusty received the 10th Arts Worcester Award in 1992 for his outstanding service to the cultural community. Great to hear from you Dusty! Keep up your dedicated service!

At a N.Y.C. estate planning seminar I renewed acquaintance with George B.Hubner. George's career has been with Chemical Bank, now serving as vice president in the private banking division. With wife Kathleen he has resided for some 30 years in Franklin Lakes (N.J.). Their older daughter is completing residency at Columbia Presbyterian while younger sister soon graduates from Carnegie Mellon. The Hubners' son, a graduate of the University of Vermont, is pursuing "recreational endeavors" in Colorado before commencing graduate studies. All the Hubners hit the slopes as principal hobby.

A recent issue of Banker & Tradesman highlighted Richard C. Dils, a western Massachusetts/southern Vermont real estate broker. Richard is president of the Massachusetts Association of Realtors and his firm, Upton-Massamont Realtors of Shelburne Falls, Mass., is also the local Sotheby's affiliate. Richard was quoted saying, "The most satisfying aspect of this work is helping people find the American dream." As an active real-estate professional he works hard to balance individual private property rights with environmental and community needs.

The Lake Charles (LA) America Press featured the visit to Lake Charles of PeterH. Brink, vice president of the National Trust for Historic Preservation. Peter, with National Trust since 1989, oversees seven regional offices, the National Main Street Center, rural preservation programs, the Maritime Program, the Preservation Forum, and the Heritage Tourism Initiative. After Dartmouth and Harvard Law, Peter practiced law in Washington, D.C., before commencing his career in historical preservation. For many years he was executive director of the Galveston Historical Foundation, which serves some 500,000 persons annually with its museum, visitors center, and public events, including the nationally recognized "Dickens on the Strand." Peter and wife Susan continue to reside in the District of Columbia.
