Jay Urstadt, Joel Berson and I had our annual lunch filled with reminiscences. Jay says Jim Krentler is reunion-bound from Hawaii along with Deke Jackson and Quent Kopp from San Francisco. Jay's exceptional success in establishing and running Battery Park City in N.Y.C., beginning 45 year's ago, has been in the local news recently.

Ralph Greenhouse provided an update from Alexandria, Virginia, where he makes music as a professional cello player. Ralph was a Fulbright scholar, then spent 26 years with the U.S. State Department in Asia. He retired before some of those worthies began to fiddle as Rome burns.

In my previous column I erred in naming the late Paul Barnico's children. Paul is survived by son Tom '77 and daughters Lauren and Karen. Sorry, Tom!
