1988

C. Alec Casey and his wife, Sarah O'Herron Casey (Middlebury '88), gave birth to twin girls Elizabeth Foley and Phoebe Sullivan on February 16, 2000. They join big sister Hannah, who turned 2 a month after the twins were born! Alec is now the very proud father of three beautiful girls! Just to make life even more crazy, he changed jobs in January. He is now the associate consumer marketing director at SportsIllustrated. "Now I can sit and watch sports all weekend and tell my wife that I'm doing it for work! Life is good!"

Sarah Jackson-Han writes that her daughter Genevieve (Jennie) was born in September, joining 3-year-old Gillian (Gillie), and she is working half-time as -a writer for NPR.org. She and her husband, Ed, just finished a seven-month renovation of their house in suburban D.C. Gillie and Jennie are carbon copies of each other, but the little one, though perfect, doesn't sleep much. Despite her tiredness, Sarah can't believe her luck. Maybe that explains her recent indulgence in Powerball lottery tickets?

James Grosser is still working as an attorney with Shaw Pittman in D.C. No kids yet, but he did buy a house in Chevy Chase, D.C., just south of the Maryland border and about half a mile from Sarah Jackson-Han. He and his wife are spending their free time ("what little we have!") getting their house in order (remodeling the kitchen) and walking in Rock Creek Park, which is just a couple of blocks away.

Diane DePriest is married and living in Mooresville, N.C., outside Charlotte. Despite words of pity from other folks, she immerses herself in math every day, teaching and chairing the department at a high school over here. "I love it!" she writes. Diane keeps in touch with Bruce Aguilar, who, with his wife, Eneida, just had a baby boy, Benjamin. Eneida is originally from Brazil. All three are living in Waltham, Mass., where Bruce works as a pastoral counselor. Diane also sees Michelle StoweOng quite frequently. Michelle learned from a class list that she and Diane live only two miles apart, and when they met up, it turned out that their husbands knew each other from Connecticut College. Six degrees of separation....Michelle has her own practice as a gerontologist, and has two daughters, Megan, 4, and Sophie, 2.
