The Rev. Bob Pumphrey Green Card-ed: "In March I had both knees replaced. April 231 went home to take care of myself. I use a cane, exercise, shop, attend church, Rotary, drive to Reno to my kids. Next week a trip with my daughter. God has been good to me."

Bob Fernald has rolled back the years. In the Etna-Lebanon, New Hampshire, area since the '70s, he's moved back to his prior home to his daughter, Carol Walker, at Spring Valley Road, Green Village, NJ 07935, (973) 377-6239, with his prized autographs, letters and pictures.

Lee McGonagle called: "When are you coming to Seattle for me to take you to a salmon dinner?" He's lived there since 1956. Most of his working life was in insurance. "I still have a few clients I watch over." An extended family keeps life interesting. His father's younger brother was '24 but died in his freshman year, "shattering my grandparents." Lee is upset at the lack of business integrity. "The public pays the price for their greed." Macular degeneration restricts him to daylight driving. He's heard little about this year's Alumni Fund drive.

We lost Stanley Francis McCoy in Houston February 8, 2001. He had suffered from pneumonia and heart problems. His widow, Helen, lives in New Jersey. They had two sons, two daughters—none Dartmouth—and grandchildren.

Since 9/11 see a new sense of neighborliness on our street, calls from folks who heard of me dislocating my hip in June while pulling our weekly refuse bin up 13 steps to the street. Being neighbors: the antidote to terrorism.
