Sharon Lee wrote in recently with happy news. Last August Sharon married Richard Hong, Hopkins '95. The couple is currently living in Alexandria, Virginia, where Sharon is enjoying working in pediatric private practice in northern Virginia. In her spare time Sharon and her husband are trying to renovate their house but, 'Alas, it's slow and not as easy as those home improvement shows make it out to be!"

Sharon also had some news about other '96s. She notes that Johnny Kao recently accepted an attending position at Mount Sinai Hospital and will be moving back to New York this summer after finishing up his current residency at the University of Chicago. Heather McNemar is living in Boston with her boyfriend and finishing her masters thesis in linguistics. Maneesh Shrivastav is enjoying married life in Minneapolis and is now the proud parent of two pomeranians. And Alex Ferries is working in San Diego, just got engaged and is also a proud new uncle to his twin brother Jason Ferries' daughter, born last November.

Garrett Gil de Rubio also wrote in to report that his bride Amber finally made an honest man out of him when they married last October 16 after six years together. The two had a perfect fall ceremony at the Evergreen Resort inside beautiful Stone Mountain Park in Atlanta. Many Dartmouth alums were in attendance. The list included newlyweds Rose (Lee) Carlson and her husband, Brian, who had a spectacular Manhattan wedding in July. Keli'i Opulauoho was also there after moving from Palm Springs, California to New York, where he now works for Matercard International. In May, Keli'i and his wife Grace Chionuma celebrated seven wonderful years of marriage by welcoming a beautiful baby boy, Joseph Miles. Other attendees included: Kimberly (Koontz) Haring and her husband Brian, Jennifer Frontera (Dr.Frontera, that is) and Vincenzo"Enzo" Sainato.Tara Velozo-Spaeth '97 and Gordon Spaeth '97 and their 2-year-old wonder, Carsten, Jorge Motoshige and Mike McCord. Gil writes: "The weekend was such an awesome and emotional reunion for all of us—including a wedding-day hike up Stone Mountain for Rose, Keli'i and myself as we revisited our freshman trip (Section G!)."

That's not all. Just recently, Gil and Amber were delighted to officially discover they will be receiving a visit from the stork this year! Gil's ending comment was that he looks forward to seeing everyone in June in Hanover for reunion!

On that note, we also look forward to seeing you at reunion! Remember to surf www.alum. dartmouth.org/classes/96/reunion/reunion. HtmL for more details!
