1975

Sometimes fiction actually works. My column from two months ago actually has generated some real news from classmates. So in the interest of space, I will go right to it.

David Kepes checked in with the following news: "Marisela and I have our oldest in his sophomore year at Dartmouth and had the pleasure of joining several classmates in August for a min-reunion of the freshman soccer team, including Frank Gallo, Mike Caldwell and Drew Remignatti." David is doing some exciting work now, putting together a renewable energy company from abandoned natural gas wells along the Texas Gulf coast. Thanks for checking in, David.

Bob Sullivan sent a note about his new book, A Child's Christmas in New England: Memories of SeasonsPast, published by Bunker Hill Publishing, that will be coming out later in the year. This follows Bobs earlier book, Flight of the Reindeer. "Sully" is the managing editor of Life Books and continues to pen articles near and far in addition to his books. (For those interested in children's—or grandchildren's—books, also take a look at LighthouseSanta, a book I co-published with UPNE written by Sara Hoagland Hunter '76 and illustrated byjulie Miner '76; it's going into its second printing now.)

Bill "Zorro" Zorn also sent news. This past fall Bill caught up with Scott Mosenthal ana his wife, Pam, who were originally on their way to N.Y.C. to see their daughter Kirby run the marathon, but when the marathon was cancelled due to Hurricane Sandy, they came to Manchester, New Hampshire, to run the Manchester marathon. Scotty Mo will be retiring as principal of Irvington High School after a nearly 28-year stint. Well done, Scotty. Bill also reports that he, Jeff Little and Bill Cahill went to a Dave Matthews concert recently and gave each other high-fives for staying the whole concert, including encores. Jeff runs the Portsmouth, New Hampshire, Dain Raucher office. Jeff and Kathy also have been spending time at their Florida home as well. Finally, never known to pass up a free drink, Zorro traveled to Boston to go to the Brown Brothers Harriman Christmas party at the invitation of Digger Donahue and ran into Sandy and Cathy Tierney's daughter Caitlin who works for BBH.

For the first time in a very long time, that is not all the news that's fit to print, just all the news I have room for in this column. Stay well and send info. All our best.
