Our thanks once again to all those classmates who contributed biographical statements and photos.
This 45th reunion book uses the same format as our 40th. It is smaller,
lacking a class poll and some of the other supplementary materials found
in the 40th book — a more modest scale befitting a “minor” major reunion
like the 45th. We promise a full-blown effort for the 50th.
We thank Chuck Creesy ’65 for his advice on design and production;
our printer, Fred Kiley of Global Printing Direct; and John Bruestle ’78 of
RE Technologies for his assistance with the class website. We encourage
classmates to visit the website (www.tiger66.org) and keep their online
biographies current.

Forty-five years!
No way to make that
sound short/small, and
no way to make it feel
done, either.
Met Sidney at the
Briarcliff mixer fall ’65
and chased her till she
caught me.
One family, two
Princetonian offspring,
both married, and now
with grandchildren and
all a joy.
Sidney and Lynn Anderson, right, with Michael and Andrea and
Lived in Princeton their spouses and children, November 2005.
12 years since graduation (Woodrow Wilson School M.P.A. ’74), and in England, Hong Kong,
and now Australia for the rest — Sydney for past 25.
Three careers — Air Force pilot, banker, headhunter. Still working.
Time off is spent sailing, especially ocean (Sydney-Hobart race, etc.),
building wooden boats, learning to love opera, and wondering why I don’t
take more time off . . .
Basically healthy and generally optimistic, politically right/center,
and increasingly pondering how best to spend the next 30. Got a fortune
cookie last night that read, “You may attend a party where strange customs
prevail” — see you at the 45th!

Looks like time has a
parallel with the universe in
general: both are accelerating. Seems like just yesterday we were preparing for
the ’66 activities in front of
Nassau Hall, and then only a
little while later saw our son
Greg ’99 getting ready for
his graduation, and last year
his 10th reunion.
Liz and I are still both
working: she’s a professor
at Harvard Medical School,
globe trotting courses for
H.M.S. and their international outreach activities.
I’m a partner with a private
equity firm investing in both
emerging and developed
markets, though I do it only
part time these days. Greg,
based in Vienna, is following a similar course in the

private equity field, running Bottom: Tom Jr. with wife Jenn and Brady, Alex, and Ryan.
10 the European activities for a firm he helped introduce there following his
Sloan M.B.A. in ’06. Son Tom and his wife are fortunately living near Boston and are thriving with three young sons who seem to be able to get into
almost any sort of mischief around. (Have any of you fellow grandparents
encountered a six-year-old manhandling a bike up to an elevated outdoor
slide so his four-year-old brother could ride “really fast” down a slide?)
Despite our work activities, Liz and I managed to get away to some
interesting places since our last reunion, including New Zealand, Australia, various places in Europe, and a couple of Space Shuttle launchings
from the NASA viewing site, most recently (STS-132) with our oldest
grandson, who is enamored with all things that fly fast. We also decided to
set up a warm-weather getaway (to occasionally escape the New England
winters) when we acquired an oceanfront condo at John’s Island at Vero
Beach, Florida. Maybe that’ll finally give us a reason and way to sharpen
our golf skills, which allow for plenty of improvement. If there are other
’66ers in the vicinity down there, we’d love to connect, occasionally now
and with greater frequency as we move toward ’66’s fiftieth.
We look forward to seeing classmates at the 45th and other venues!

PART THE FIRST (1965-81)
It is an ancient Princeton man,
And he stoppeth one of three.
“By thy shuffling step and drooling lip,
Now wherefore stopp’st thou me?
“The forclosed’s doors are opened wide,
And I am going in;
The terms are met, the price is set:
They’ll take it on the chin.”
He holds him with his now still hand,
“There were these trips,” quoth he.
“Hold off! unhand me, stooping loon!”
Eftsoons his hand dropt he.
He holds him with his glittering eye —
The speculator’s still,
And listens like a three years child:
The Princeton man hath his will.
The speculator turned to stone:
He cannot chuse but hear;
And thus spake on that Princeton man,
His hushed voice barely clear.
The band was cheered, New Jersey cleared,
Merrily did we drive.
To Pennsylvania’s Chambersburg
And Wilson we’d arrive.
The Sun went down upon the left,
Out of Nassau came we!
And I played bright, and danced that night
With my bride meant to be.
12 Closer and closer every day,
Till at the church past noon —
The speculator beat his breast,
For he heard his ring-tone’s tune.
The mortgage banker placed the call,
Red as a beet was he;
Rubbing his eyes in panic’s throes
BlackBerry’s screen to see.
The speculator beat his breast,
Yet he cannot chuse but hear;
And thus spake on that Princeton man,
His hushed voice barely clear.
And now internship came, and I
Was tired and often wrong:
We stuck with Cleveland for two years,
Then hastened south along.
With chi-squared stats and transport swabs,
In CDC pursuit to go
To Naples, vibrio my foe,
And old words in my head.
Two years went fast — EIS blast,
Then westward aye we fled.
And now came Parkland and VA,
And it grew wondrous hot:
And Sephadex and microbe sex
As a green fellow’s lot.
And through June’s heat — how grand to greet —
Did smile our woundrous son:
Nor slow to try, nor quick to cry,
Delighting in all fun.
The South was here, the South was there,
The South was all around:
My Jersey wife has spent her life
Midst drawls and Dixie’s sound.
Romani noi? Marta, che vuoi?
Ben due anni piu’.
Poi, per carita’, la TWA
Noi tre riporto’ giu’.

PART THE SEVENTH
To AHRQ I ride each day on MARC,
And there I spend each day,
Explaining VAP’s elastic bands
(And don’t foget hygiene for hands),
And plots of sepsis’ way.
Farewell, farewell! but this I boast
To thee, who speculates!
He’s published most, who triest most
Both man and germ and beast.
He’s published most, who triest most
All journals great and small;
For those few peers who loveth us
Give good reviews to all.
The Princeton Man, whose eyes are dry,
Whose tremor is no more,
Is gone: and now the yuppie pest
Was stayed from greed no more.
He bought from those recession-stunned
And did not hide his scorn:
A shameful but a richer man,
He rose the morrow morn.

Lots of changes since I last wrote this piece for the 40th reunion. First,
I have retired from teaching law and coaching, at least on a full-time or
employee basis. I still do some “guest” lecturing at local high schools and
colleges in the areas of law and history — Latin America, Spain — and I
am the senior technical advisor, i.e., old fart, for two local soccer teams that
I previously coached and that are now coached by former players of mine.
My children are gone from the homestead at last, have real jobs — one a
professor of South Asian studies at SUNY Stony Brook, New York, the
other a professional musician — bass man — here in Miami and wherever
else he can get a gig, Spain for one. I shall be a grandfather for one son by
reunions and become a father-in law for the other, better late than never.
19 My wife of 36 years, Diane, has retired from full-time teaching as
well, although she is still very active as a yoga instructor. With the open
schedules we have now, a great deal of travel has been on the agenda these
past few years: Oregon, Washington,
California, Vermont for our first
dose of late fall in 40 years, visits
with Bill Barrett and John Lumpkin
and family in South Carolina on our
way to the Outer Banks for annual
stay on the beach (35 years); also
see Cruikshank at our old school
reunions (St. Andrews, Delaware).
The most memorable journey was to
Diane, Jim, Mark, and Eric Beverley.
Peru, where I spent the greater part
of my early childhood. Found the
house I lived in 50 years ago, took in the fabulous sites and sights that I
was not aware of as a child — Machu Pichu, Cuzco, Colca Canyon, Lake
Titicaca, the Amazon. Also found out that I am officially a “third-culture
kid,” i.e., someone born in one country, esp. USA, Britain, Germany et al.
and raised in another, e.g. India, Africa, Latin America. Did not know that
we were a defined cultural entity, just army, diplomatic, church and in my
case oil “brats.”
I am still playing rugby with the Florida and Miami Old Boys, now in
the over-55 and the newly established over-60 division. Every time the
age bracket goes up I get fast again.We won the 55’s in Ft. lauderdale
last spring, the Knackerfest in Cayman, and the first 60’s in Aspen this
fall. Among our regulars are five players from the Princeton town club
who have conceded that I am not a bad sort for a “gown” guy.This spring
will mark the 47th year since I first went on tour to St. Louis, through a
blizzard, with Princeton RFC. Well, someone must be out there to keep
the orthopods in our class on their game and in their big sailboats. Happy
Trails until we meet again.

Over the past 10 years, I have lost my wife of 31 years (Joyce) to breast
cancer, and in December 2010 married a long-time friend, Diane Roberts,
who will join me at our 45th reunion. Together we have eight children
and nine grandchildren. All of the children are employed and doing well,
many in local Seattle-area tech ventures, some in small businesses, and
one about to host a web-based cooking channel. I am very proud of all of
them, to say the least.
In 2006 I took the advice of several real estate friends and liquidated
my entire portfolio of West Coast apartments at the top of the market. I felt
totally brilliant at the time, only to find that reinvesting the funds in shop-

caught up in the national real-estate malaise. Hopefully, recovery will
come before our 50th reunion. It was a great run, and couldn’t last forever,
but this dip is rather unexpected for its severity.
I have been blessed with pretty good health, recently took off most of
the pounds I gained since our P.U. days, and am working hard to keep the
weight off. I have been involved on various boards and officer positions
in a number of local organizations and continue to enjoy travel, downhill
skiing, boating, and reading. My kids keep me up to speed with the latest technology, which is astounding compared with what we had back in
1966. Notwithstanding a failed marriage and a second wife who died, and
a few ailments, life has been good to me, and I feel very blessed. And my
new wife, Diane, and family bring enormous joy to me! A locomotive to
all the class!

Grandchildren: None yet and I hereby place an order.
After a five-year stint as a part-time rancher/farmer/ranch adminstrator and as a part-time Pacific Ocean wave surfer (the shark pit off Dillon
Beach is my favorite spot, but occasionally I go back to the baby beach
at Dillon; I am solely a
long boarder, none of
that short board stuff for
me), while working full
time-plus in law and
real estate, I have shed
the ranch and moved
back to Fairfax. Now
just surfing, practising
law, and doing special
real-estate projects —
­
Erica, Neil, and Sheri at the office.
including another West
Marin ranch soon! (Two if Sheri has her way.)
Sheri and I are both looking forward to Reunions and our traveling entourage is growing daily as we get closer to them — both Violet and Erica
decided in the last few days to join us, so this will be a great extendedfamily event for me.
Sheri is starting a book — an exposé of the world of horse training,
breeding, showing — should be fun when she completes it!
My oldest, Jenny, is splitting her time between Thailand, where she is
teaching Samba in the jungle, and Wellington, New Zealand, where she
is working and has worked at Weta films, going from the hobbit trilogy
Return of the King to King Kong (as a texture computer artist, she did his
skin). Her boyfriend, Chris, has gone from the New York scene in King
Kong to working on the new Disney Logo.
My middle daughter, Violet, is coming to Reunions with her signficant
other, John Alioto. Violet finished her first two years of college/paralegal
training and is now a paralegal at a law office in San Rafael, building up
her energy to go on to finish college and go to law school.
The youngest, Erica, who joined our family through and with Sheri is
coming to Reunions with her and our long-time friend Dominque Palma.
Erica and Dominique are both extremely active in the world of equestrian
23 arts, Erica dominating these days the American Paint Horse Association
amatuer competitions and foraying out into quarter-horse worlds and other
areas of the horse world, with a number of amateur championships under her
belt, so to speak. She is working her way through Santa Barbara Community
College as she rides and travels around the country with a few of our horses,
some of whom log a lot more miles than I do these days.

Grandchildren: Matias Leopoldo Paz, 2001; Dante Gabriel Paz, 2003
I have now retired twice — from 20 years as an Air Force officer and
architect/planner, and 13 years in similar roles for the University of Cincinnati. I enjoy transportation and community planning, campus planning,
and architectural design jobs that focus on sustainable design (conserving
resources for future generations) and plan to keep working.
My most recent job, for Parsons Corporation in San Antonio, involved
master plans and capital budgets for USAF dorms at 84 bases and improving U.S. Customs and Border Protection space at large airports and land
ports. My daughter created a website (www.urbanvis.com) to help with my
current job search. Meanwhile, I am testing my retirement-home design
skills on a challenging site near Atlanta.
Our daughter Jennifer is now teaching English as a second language at
Auburn University, thanks to a former boss she worked for in Korea. She
and her husband, Leo, and our grandsons, Matias and Dante, moved to Auburn from southern California just before Christmas in 2010, trading nice
beaches and good weather for lower living costs and much less traffic.
Our daughter Cynthia recovered from major surgery in Germany in
2004 to implant artificial discs in her back, injured in her first six months
as a physical therapist in Los Angeles. She now has a growing business in
graphics and website design (www.solarlynx.com) and loves to sing her
own songs and jazz classics from the Swing Era. She moved from Cincinnati to beautiful Vermont in November 2009.
My wife, Marilyn, the girl I met at Princeton, continues to be an outstanding mother, grandmother, and homemaker. Her Mother, Helene, has
lived with us almost 20 years and is doing well at age 94.
Marilyn and I are both military brats and have lived in so many wonderful places all over the world, it is hard to decide where we should retire.
Princeton and Honolulu are at the top of my “favorite places” list, but we
have lived longer and feel more at home in the Midwest and Washington,
DC, area. When it is really time to retire, we will mostly likely move
somewhere “new” like Tennessee or Georgia — the states where we were
born. We hope to make a decision before our 50th reunion. But don’t count
on it!

After 39 years at the law firm of Arnold & Porter, based in Washington,
D.C., I retired effective January 1, 2010, and am very much enjoying my
new lifestyle — no daily time sheets, no unreasonable client demands, and
time to pursue my interests (especially Judaic studies). I have also started
a new consulting firm with another retired attorney (who served as inside
counsel for a multinational for 25 years) — International Legal Management, LLC, designed to help international companies reduce their outside
legal fees and expenses (www.internationallegalmanagementllc.com). We
have a particular focus on Russia, where I headed the Moscow office of
Arnold & Porter for 11 years.
My wife and I have also had occasion to travel more since my retirement — visiting Argentina, Israel, and Greece in 2010, and we look
forward to more journeys. Our grandchildren, Nathan, Emma, and Cooper,
bring much joy in our lives, and we are trying to spend as much time with
them as our schedule and their parents will allow.
I am active in our synagogue, servicing as vice president of the National Synagogue, and try to attend Torah classes several days each week.
I have been very pleased to see the growth of a vibrant Jewish community
on the Princeton campus.
I hope my friends from Princeton days will have an opportunity to visit
with me when they are in Washington.

Partner: Mary Raymond
As the French say, “Plus ça change, plus c’est la même chose.”
I continue to work for (and am part owner of) Universal Industrial
31 Gases, Inc. Mary and I
have been together for 12
years. Felix, the household cat, continues to
manage the master bedroom and acts more like
an energetic 4-year-old
than the circa 15-yearold he is chronologically.
Chaucer, our liver-andwhite Springer Spaniel,
who was adopted just
prior to our 40th reunion,
is doing fine as well.
Dave Butler and Mary Raymond, October 2010.
Universal Industrial
Gases, management-owned for 10 years, is moving into a healthy middle
age. During the past five years the company has won and completed several large and complex projects that have added to the company’s visibility
and helped to set the stage for additional growth.
The job that Mary held at the time of our 40th reunion ended as the
first wave of economic slowdown rolled through the economy in mid2009. She has chosen to turn the situation into an opportunity to make a
significant career change and is now two years into a Master of Education
program at Cedar Crest College. Her program will qualify her to teach
high school English and English literature and provide her with certification as an instructor in English as a second language. She is getting valuable practical experience in this skill area by assisting with E.S.L.
Bible-study classes at a local church.
Mary is active in a number of campus activities and organizations,
including a group focused on the specific needs and interests of students
who live off-campus. With all of the college-related studying, presentation
development, and cultural and social activities going on, I sometimes feel
like both of us are back in college.
Interestingly, the atmosphere at Cedar Crest is surprisingly reminiscent
of Princeton. Founded as a college for women in 1867, the undergraduate
side of Cedar Crest remains essentially single-sex. The background of the
college president, Carmen Twillie Ambar, includes Princeton connections
through her master’s degree in Public Affairs from the Woodrow Wilson
School and a stint there as assistant dean for graduate education. President
Ambar is an enthusiastic and energetic leader who is dedicated to ensuring
academic quality and creation of an atmosphere that fosters empowerment
in its students. She has described her job, and the role of the college, in
terms Woodrow Wilson would recognize, “helping to make the world a
better place, one Cedar Crest student at a time.”
32 One of the benefits of being with Mary is the ability to join in an enjoyable summer ritual — the gathering of her family in Jamestown, Rhode
Island. In a typical year, as many as 20 family members and some guests
coexist and interact for a week in a classic, soon-to-be-100-year-old summer home with a wonderful view across Narragansett Bay. The overall flavor of the week in Jamestown is much like that at Princeton reunions. The
crowd is multigenerational, with many having come there every summer
of their lives. It is an enchanting location, and everyone shares a special
fondness for the house, its grounds, the quaint and friendly business and
town center of Jamestown, the bucolic nature of the island, and for the
tradition of gathering there. It is a relaxing, fun, and renewing experience.

Spouse: Kay Wang Chen. Children: Christine, 1975; Stephanie, 1987
In the spirit of our 45th-reunion milestone, I submit the following
personal milestones reached in 2010:
• Kay and I celebrated our 40th anniversary (she’d kill me if this didn’t
come first).
• Both Kay and I went on Medicare (just before the baby boomers, who
will deplete it).
• Everybody in the family now has an iPhone (after all, it’s a real com puter). Every year since 1993, someone in our family has brought
home a new computer (thanks to my former employer, AT&T).
• We have two hybrid cars (each a Prius, albeit different generations —
it’s really a computer on wheels).
35 • For the first time, we
don’t have at least one
daughter living within 10
miles of our home (finally
empty nest).
• For the first time, both
daughters (Christine,
Prince­ton ’97, and Stephanie ’09) are gainfully
employed simultaneously
(leading to their living with
their significant others?).
• Last year, both daughters
racked up more air travel
miles than I did and visited
more foreign countries (ah,
From left, Leighton, Kay, Stephanie, and Christine Chen
to be young and footloose).
on tour in Egypt, January 2006.
• Two members of my family performed publicly in the same piece for first time (Kay on piano
and Christine dancing at Bucks County Community College concert).
• Kay’s USTA (tennis) team qualified for the nationals for the first time
(on bad knees, no less!).
• Kay played more piano in the last two years than in the previous 30
(she even sneaks in to use Princeton’s grand pianos).
• I have taken more photographs in the last two years than in all the
years before (thanks to digital photography and cheap storage).
• I have more than one lens for my main camera (seven for my Canon 7D).
• Gotten media credit for published photographs (for ballet coverage in
the local press).
• I have audited more courses at Princeton than I took as an undergraduate (all courses that I actually enjoy taking).
• Witnessed resurgence of Tiger basketball under Sydney Johnson ’97
(continuous-season ticket holder since the heyday of Pete Carril).
• I’ve survived 10 years since my cancer diagnosis (after pretty much
exercising all available options).
• I spent more days in the hospital than in any one year before (not by
choice, and was able to walk out one day after my knee replacement.
. . . Doctors are so conservative).
• I rode fewer miles on my bicycles than any year in the last 23 (from
Oriental Express to Slow Boat to China).
• Between 1993 and 2010, I went to a foreign country every year except 2009 (trying my best to help the world economy).
Since our 40th reunion:
• We bought our first time share (Park City Mountainside).
36 • Girls performed in their first musicals (Christine in Oklahoma,
Stephanie in Footloose).
• Christine met her first gazillionaire (adjusting Warren Buffet’s tie).
• Christine modeled in her first national ad campaign (Puma with
STREB).
• Stephanie levitated (Princeton Atelier’s Magic Show).
• Using hearing aid (only occasionally, when I have to sit in the back
of a large lecture hall).
Bucket List:
• Come within three minutes of the Nurburgring (174 turns in 14.2
miles) Formula One Grand Prix course record in my computer driving
simulation.
• Visit all World Heritage Sites personally or virtually via 3D simulations.
• Capture apex predators, i.e. tigers, photographically in the wild.
• Leisurely around-the-world cruise.

My wife, Nina, is tussling with the Chinese factory and trying to find
a buyer for her business. Older kids are producing grandkids (five). Matt,
age 23, is playing pro hockey for the Hannover Braves (Germany), and
Rebecca, 21, is a senior at Penn.
My Mom, 93, still holds court at Heathcote Farm and would like to see
any ’66ers.
Hope to be here for many more reunions.

I used to think of this sort of writing exercise as a résumé update or
the sort of claptrap one puts on a questionnaire before joining a board or
new company. Now I’m into transparency, warts and all, so what appears
below is five minutes of stream of consciousness.
On first meeting, I tell people I’m an author. I’ve written a variety of
books and articles about how people learn. I’ve become the Johnny Appleseed of informal learning in corporations and government. My calling is to
help people learn what it takes for them to be more fulfilled in their work
and happy in their lives. In the past year I’ve dropped calling it learning,
however, in favor of “working smarter.” Corporations underfund learning,
42 but most executives I talk with go along with investing in getting their
people working smarter.
After being a one-man band for 10 years, I threw in with some friends
to form the Internet Time Alliance. We’re hot-shots in the realms of social
media, learning theory, game design, mobile learning, corporate governance, and, well, working smarter. Last month, my speaking engagements
took me to Brussels, Berlin, Doha, Stockholm, Maastricht, and London. In
2011, I plan to cut travel and collaborate more remotely; I’ve remodeled
the bottom of my house into the Internet Time Lab, a mini-retreat space
and video studio.
Our son Austin completed his masters in meteorology last year and
moved from Fairbanks, Alaska, to Monterey, California. Hoorah!
Our miniature long-haired dachshund just underwent back surgery but
fails to recognize she’s an old dog and is still enthusiastic about life. That’s
the case with me as well. I’ve escaped from the depression that plagued
me from my Princeton years until 1997. I plan to travel, write, take pictures, taste great food, and have a good time for my remaining years.
Five minutes is up. See you at Reunions.

It’s now been almost 13 years since my career change from law to running a business, so clearly the biggest change affecting my life has been a
great one. I’m the president of Prudent Publishing Company, the Gallery
Collection, which is the largest direct-mail manufacturer and seller of
greeting cards, business to business, in the country. We have 300 employees in peak season, all in two locations in New Jersey.
The transition was a dream, except of course for difficulties surrounding 9/11 and resulting business fluctuations. But bad times are good for
learning how to cope, and we did. Not keeping time sheets is a real blessing, and so is using my people talents and the type of advice I was giving
to clients, to run a very nice business. I have more time, much less stress,
and overall (to use a class term) we’ve done quite well. The years 2003,
2004, 2005, 2006, and 2007 were the company’s best ever, in succession,
Bud and Elaine D’Avella
at the wedding of their
son Anthony to Sandi
O’Connell. Next to the
bride is Bud’s mom,
Aida, age 95. On the
right are son BJ, his wife
Laura, and grandson
Ben.
44 which was a real thrill. Of course we hit the
problems of 2008 and both sales and profits
dipped, but we’ve managed to keep everyone
employed and excellent progress is being made.
The nicest thing, overall (that word again!),
is that I’ve been able to spend more time with
Elaine and the family, play golf, go to the
beach, and travel. Life is indeed good.
Much big news on the family front since I
wrote last — First son BJ ’97 and Laura Zupa
(Columbia ’01) were married in 2003. As many
of you know, I introduced them. Laura actually sings opera professionally, and made her
professional operatic debut at the New Jersey
Performing Arts Center in Verdi’s Il Trovatore Bud and Elaine getting in touch
with their Roman roots, St.
in June 2005. Then, with a nice contingent
Thomas, 2006.
of ’66ers in attendance, she sang in Mozart’s
Nozze di Figaro at McCarter’s Berlind Theatre in July. This year she
sang Micaela in Bize’t’s Carmen, a great role for her. Son BJ received
his M.B.A. at Georgetown in May 2003 and is now a senior associate at
PriceWaterhouseCoopers, based in Florham Park, consulting to the health
industry. For six years they lived in the next town, where our grandson
BJD IV (“Ben”) was born in February 2009, and very happily have just
moved to Essex Fells, about two blocks away!
Anthony (Middlebury ’00) stepped down as executive director of operations for Smile United Kingdom in April 2005; this was after almost two
years in London, and before then in Rome working for its Italian office
and building foundations in Ireland and some other European countries.
He then greatly enjoyed himself at Harvard Business School, graduating in
the Class of 2007. His work life took him to New York, where he is now
with IDEO New York, a design and innovation consultant to large businesses. In October 2010 he married Sandi O’Connell, an account executive with Diane von Furstenberg, and they live in Brooklyn Heights.
Elaine is well and taking great care of all of us and our lives together,
with an accent on our grandson Ben. Our extensive travel together has
been a real joy, including trips to Egypt and India in 2008. Elaine saw to
it that we celebrated my 60th in high style, complete with roast and slide
show, which included many Princeton friends. Having your life surveyed
by others is a great experience and one I highly recommend.
More excitement in 2011: having finished my work of building a strong
executive team at Prudent Publishing, and having reached age 66, I’ve
decided it’s time to move on. June 30 will be my last day at Prudent and
my first day of family business and estate and trust consulting — and more
travel and fun with Elaine and the family.

I’ve discovered a major new direction, almost a new career track, in
literary translation. It has rejuvenated me and given me a new set of wonderful colleagues in and outside academia. I translate mostly contemporary
fiction from Germany, Austria, and Switzerland.

Charlotte, 2010
My memory is not constructed to recall vivid and amusing anecdotes.
I am not adverse to telling a joke on myself, but the stand-up comic lines
just do not come. What follows are musings on a selection of the activities
which have occupied my time since we shared the lawn, under the elms, in
June of 1966.
Life in Baltimore
Julie and I moved to Baltimore for good in 1972. As I write, a wellknown comedy troupe is staging a send-up of the town in the city itself.
A bunch of comedians from out of town are the best possible observers
of how this place conducts its business and displays its many foibles and
pratfalls. Critics say the show portrays all of the idiosyncratic traits of the
town and its people, and I guess I will have to see the show before I note
them all. It may be the quirkiest place in the United States. It self-consciously values what most of the country considers trivial. Take lacrosse.
Or crabs. We seem to revel in the approval of others — a positive piece
in The New York Times, for instance, or being listed not at the bottom of
some magazine’s list of best places to conduct some activity or other. It is
a place with roots. When asked, “Where did you go to school,” you should
reply with the name of your elementary school, not your college.
Nevertheless, I am glad to have spent over 38 years living in the town.
I turns out to have been a wonderful place to raise a family. I hope that
Matthew and Ted join in that view. I am comfortable among the people
with whom I have an acquaintance, and we have been fortunate in the
warm and enduring friendships we have here. The folks are congenial,
and one may find here as many, and sometimes more, of the urban amenities as are found in other cities. We are proud of our culture and often
wear neighboring Washington’s sometime disapproval of our ways as a
badge of honor.
50 Preparation for retirement
It has been said that if you want to make God laugh, just tell Him your
plans. Being so warned, I have made no plans. Some years ago, I set an
arbitrary age of 70 as “the time.” Our financial adviser says that we can
make the leap under present circumstances, although I am not altogether
sure of that. I have my health, I enjoy my work, there is no pressure on me
to stop, and I can use the income.
Nevertheless, I feel as though I
have been derelict and ill prepared
for the inevitable. I love to sail, but I
have no boat nor any preparation for
extended life at sea. Moreover, Julie
really does not like to spend more
than a few days on the water, even
in proper yachts. We do enjoy travel,
mostly the adventure part of it. An
ocean cruise, or a tour with scheduled stops at reliable restaurants
and hotels has not been our plan.
We tend to the “book the flight then
figure out what to do” school. We
have been lucky, so far. Much of that
good fortune is due to our choices

of destination, mostly France, where
Julie slips in like a native. She does all the negotiating, and I come off as the
complete idiot who orders turtles rather than tarts from the menu.
Then there is staying with the grandchildren, a whole other occupation.
With Julie’s retirement from teaching, she is mostly free to follow the little
folks around. My work situation, aided by electronics, allows me to take
time off occasionally during the summer and the rest of the year. We hope
to use that freedom to get more “face time” with the family.
A Thought on Health Care
My health is excellent; I have nothing to complain about. I avoid
tedious discussions of the various maladies that manifest themselves as
the geriatric odometer clicks over. But, I take too many pills to my liking.
Two tablets are attributed to my ancestors’ genetics, and a dose of Agent
Orange is the source of another, so says the V.A.
The daily pill intake is causing me mild anxiety. My concern is not
about the big thing, namely, death. It is the act of surrender to my internist
and my endocrinologist.
Grandchildren
Matt and Ted have given Julie and me a total of four grandchildren —
51 William (9), Andrew (7), Katherine (6), and Charlotte (7 months). Their
arrival confirms that I have done my part to sustain the cycle of life, and
provides me with continuous bursts of joy in that Matt and Ted are now
practicing fathers and I get to hang out with the grandchildren.
Before Will arrived, I did not think of myself as a child hugger. My
own sons were adorable as
children, and we squeezed
them, and tickled them, and
nurtured them as parents do.
As my more remote descendants arrived, I felt that I
was on less certain ground.
My anxieties concerning
small children were groundless. I have come to realize
that dogs and babies like me.
I have long known that most

fur like me. I even came to
terms with a few cats over the years. To my delight and relief, I discovered
that I genuinely enjoy the company of my grandchildren, and my articulate
grandchildren seem to like to have Granddaddy around. The fact that I am
still able to sit on the floor with them surely contributes to the congeniality
of our time together, so I am praying that I will remain in shape to do that
for awhile.
Music
Music has always moved me to a greater or lesser extent. Early on, I
fell in with some folks who adored jazz, and that was cool. My interest
waned as time went on. The low point, I suppose, was in the late ’70s,
a period of truly forgettable popular music to this critic’s ear. The scene
changed for me when Ted began singing in the choir of the Cathedral of
Mary Our Queen. It was a big deal, for him and for me. I was thrilled to
hear his boys’ choir perform, and I started hanging around, groupie-like.
The director was surely desperate for additional adult voices. At the
time, the ensemble relied exclusively on boys to sing the soprano parts
and on men to carry the remainder, and men who could carry a tune were
in short supply. To my astonishment, he asked me to audition, and then improbably invited me to rehearse. During the following 15 years I learned
how to sight-read music and to hold on to a part in the midst of superior
voices singing something else. The music was glorious, and making music
was satisfying beyond words.
Sadly, I had to give up the choir. The life of a volunteer member of a
musical group is surprisingly demanding. Like sports in our youth, you
52 cannot miss a practice or a performance and remain on the team for long.
Now, I enthusiastically vocalize as a member of the congregation with the
hope that I give others the courage to sing out.
Then came opera. For a modest contribution, I was elected to the board
of the Baltimore Opera Company. That position led to a couple of gigs
as a nonsinging piece of movable scenery in productions of Norma and
Andrea Chenier. It all came to a tragic, some would say operatic, end. The
company went bankrupt after I had the luck and foresight to have resigned
from the board several years before the curtain closed.
I still adore the opera. I maintain that it is not an acquired taste. In
order to enjoy a performance one requires only an appreciation of the
inevitability of human folly, a sense of humor, and the ability to suspend
belief. It also helps to understand that producing operas is an undertaking as carefully calibrated and choreographed as a surgical operation,
except in an opera we always know with 100 percent certainty who dies
in the end.

Cathye and I are looking forward to seeing you at our 45th class reunion. Our oldest children, Jack ’98 and Dabney, and their families hope
to join us. Jack was barely eight months old at our 10th reunion, and even
now they both try to “come back” with us for major ’66 reunions.
I am in my fourth four-year term in the Virginia Senate with increasing
leadership responsibilities and assignments on five standing committees
and numerous boards and commissions. I also practice law in my home
town of Roanoke.
My law practice consists of a wide range of litigation, civil and criminal, federal and state, trials and appeals. I am teaching a trial advocacy
course at the University of Virginia Law School this semester.
Promoting higher education has been a priority of mine in the Senate.
Virginia Tech in Blacksburg is part of my district. I also chair the board of
trustees of the Roanoke Higher Education Center, which has been called a
“national model for the new millennium.” Established by legislation I sponsored, it partners with 12 colleges and universities and other institutions in
offering access to affordable higher education in a nonresidential setting. In
its first 10 years, over 5,800 bachelors and masters degrees and certificates
have been awarded, and over 2,800 students now attend each semester.
Our son, Jack (P.U. ’98 and U.Va. Law ’03), married his law school

Houston, where they live and practice law. Kearney and Karen Shanahan
along with Tiny and Betty Lou Morgan were guests. Jack and Kelley
have two children, Trey (John III), born February 10, 2008, and Sara,
born October 20, 2010. After both practiced for several years with large
firms, Jack now practices law with JohnsonTrent and Kelley is with Littler
Mendelson.
Our daughter Dabney (U.Va. ’01) married Patrick Graney IV (U.Va. ’00
and U.Va. M.B.A. ’07) in 2006. Dabney works for Accenture and Patrick is an executive with McJunkinRedman, a company servicing the oil
industry. In 2005, after working on Accenture projects in Africa, Dabney
climbed Mount Kilimanjaro (19,340 feet)!
Their son, Patrick Graney V, was born January 12, 2010. After living a
few years in Charleston, West Virginia, last spring they too moved to Houston, so now all our grandchildren are living near each other in Houston.
Our youngest child, Catherine, now 28, continues to live at home with
us, handicapped by cerebral palsy since birth.
Cathye and I would love to hear from you and have you visit us when
you are in the Roanoke area.

cities) where such places as PGA West and the famous La Quinta Resort

resort-residential homes. We just love it here and plan to stay.

It will be 45 years from Houseparties weekend, May 1966, when Barbara (Princeton *65 and my organic chemistry lab instructor in Chemistry
303-304) and I celebrated our marriage with a lake party down at Lake
Carnegie. So the Princeton 45th
coincides with our 45th wedding
anniversary. Barbara and I still work
together at Harvard Medical School,
where we are both professors of
medicine. And, yes, we remain loyal
Princetonians in a sea of crimson.
We maintain a research operation devoted to the study of thrombosis and
blood coagulation, and I continue
to see patients with bleeding and
thrombotic disorders.
So what’s new in the past five
years? Our son Eric (P.U. ’95)
remains at University of Southern
California School of Cinematic Arts.
He has gone from being a student to
a techie to staff in charge of creative computing to adjunct faculty
Barbara and Bruce Furie.
teaching a course in motion capture
63 animation every semester. This school has gone from analog to digital
in the past 15 years, and Eric has led the charge. As a computer engineer
and one invested in creative film making, he has been perfect for this role.
He teaches his motion capture course with Robert Zemekis (Eric does 99
percent of the work), and he has just completed design, construction, and
implementation of one of the largest performance-capture studios in the
country at U.S.C. The other son, Gregg (P.U. ’97), graduated from Harvard Medical School, where he spent an extra year working for the C.D.C.
in Guatamala. He completed his medical residency at the University of
Pennsylvania last June and has moved to Yale, where he is a Robert Wood
Johnson Clinical Scholar participating in health policy research.
While so many of our friends are retiring, we continue life in the fast
lane. In medical research, you are either in the fast lane or you are out of
it. We have developed some novel methods for imaging thrombus formation in living mice. This work has major implications for understanding
the primary cause of heart attacks and strokes. This work has kept us busy
on the lecture tour, and over the past years we have traveled all over the
world. As presidents, Barbara and I organized a congress of the International Society on Thrombosis and Haemostasis for approximately 8,000
colleagues in Boston in 2009 and I am now secretary-general of this
organization. However, health issues have finally grounded me, at least for
the time being. Soon, more time to be spent at our house in Woods Hole,
Massachusetts, hopefully cruising on our boat, Karass.

After living in Princeton for 40 years, Suzanne and I decided to move
to New England in 2004, following the sale of my medical Internet indexing and publishing business to Thomson Healthcare. Our plan was to
divide our time between a home in Harvard Square, Cambridge, near our
two sons and their families, and our rural, seaside farm in Bremen, Maine,
the latter becoming our legal official residence in 2006.
Still not ready to retire, I started another publishing business in Maine
— my third — on life skills education in 2008, called Starting Out, Inc.,
which I expanded rapidly and sold to McGraw-Hill in the fall of 2010.
And, once again, the retirement option came up, but I wasn’t ready!
Dan and Suzanne
Goldenson with Max,
Lucy, and Zoe.
66 Unlike my prior business sales, the Starting Out, Inc. deal did not
require an employment agreement, so I was again free to start still another
business — this one called Compliance Publications, Inc., which is scheduled for launch in the spring of 2011. Focused on a new OSHA certification program called SHARP, the business involves creating state-by-state
training manuals to help companies qualify for approval under a program
that, among other benefits, spares them from having inspections for two
years at a time, and qualifies them for discounts on workers’ comp and
liability insurance.
The rest of my family has been pursuing their own entrepreneurial interests. Three years ago Suzanne started a successful agricultural business,
the Heirloom Tomato Sauce Company, which grows, processes, and packages a high-end organic marinara sauce is sold in gourmet outlets, mostly
in Maine. (See http://heirloomtomatosauceco.com.)
Our older son, Andy, lives in Newton, Mass., and was married on our
Maine farm in 2004. Both he and his wife Jennie are Cornell grads, and
now have three wonderful children: Max (5), Zoe (3), and Lucy (1). Andy
is an inventor of specialized sensors, including one for underwater surveillance being developed for the Navy and for Lockheed Martin. Jennie is on
leave as an elementary school teacher.
Jeff Goldenson, P.U. ’99, is also married to a wonderful teacher, Natalie
Dean, and they live in Cambridge. After graduating from the MIT Media
Lab in 2008, Jeff was ready to launch his own innovative new software
tools to help libraries provide better user services. Harvard hired him, and
he is busy at work in a special digital media lab pursuing his many ideas
with a group of other young researchers.
The Goldensons welcome hearing from classmates in Cambridge or
Maine. My email is dangoldenson@gmail.com.

Barbara and I look forward with great pleasure to our 45th reunion.
We thank our class officers and the entire Reunion Committee — especially Tiny and Turk — for their long commitment to our class and thank
Jim for continuing to assemble and edit our class reunion book.
This year there seems much less to report. The course of our lives,
choice of activities, and interests remains steady, positive, and constant.
We continue to spend our summers cruising the rivers and waterways
of Europe aboard our canal boat L’Amitié. This marks the 15th summer
of quiet exploration and pleasant returns to the beautiful towns and quaint
ports we love so much. Most of my Princeton roommates and their wives
have joined us in these travels and we look forward to more visits from
David Kidd, Phil Nicholson, Andy and Sue Zimmerman, Gib and Peggy
Hentschke, David and Lynn Williams, and hope that John and Paula Hamilton, Gary and Pam Mount, and Jon Waage will soon have more free time
in their summer schedules so that they will join us soon.
We have gradually added long-distance bicycling to our summer fun.
Thanks to wonderful dedicated cycle paths we have biked most of the major European rivers and have, in addition, completed several of the major
Swiss, Dutch, and Italian national routes. Our “secret weapons” are our
foldable Brompton bicycles, which allow us to make connections easily
and independently using public transportation.
We spend our winters mostly in our home of 40 years here in San
Diego, and we continue to take at least one long trip each winter to the
southern hemisphere and one long trip to leisurely enjoy New York City.
This year we will make our first visit to Bhutan and then fly to New Zealand, where we will bike the Otago Rail Trail, hike the Routeburn Track,
and motor cruise with friends in the Bay of Islands near Auckland.
Our children, Joshua and Sarah, are doing well and progressing nicely
and love their lives and their work.
Joshua is a physician who, having completed his neurology residency at
68 Brown, has chosen to practice intensive end-of-life care giving with San
Francisco Hospice. He lives with his active family in the Bay Area and is
an avid biker, runner, and kite surfer when his work schedule allows.
Sarah, P.U. ’96, has her own firm, which specializes in consulting
internationally and providing global health strategies to governments and
large N.G.O.s. She is the world-wide coordinator for the introduction of
the human papilloma virus vaccine and does vast amounts of international
travel and teaching.
While we continue with our community-based volunteer activities, we
have not recently taken on any new responsibilities.
I continue to help teach a long-established science enrichment program
in a local inner-city school to fourth and fifth graders, which has resulted
in these classes repeatedly getting the highest science scores in the city. A
full term as chairman of the San Diego Country Criminal Grand Jury left
me full of admiration for those working on our behalf in the criminal-justice system and totally surprised by the extent of criminal activity around
us, of which I had not been earlier aware.
Recently, I have given more attention to painting and piano playing,
with rewarding results. My efforts are now focused almost entirely on the
jazz standards, especially Gershwin, and on impressionist-style California
and French plein-aire paintings. My plan to crisscross San Diego County
by foot has almost been completed. This summer I completed with friends
my fifth (and probably final) Tour du Mont Blanc hike, and Barbara hiked
the Inca Trail in Peru. This fall I joined our local genealogy group and
have started some very enjoyable work on our family histories.
We remain extremely grateful that our lives have been so rich and
rewarding. We believe strongly that our good educational opportunities,
especially Princeton and Barnard, have played enormous rolls in our success and happiness and we are thrilled with the success of our alma maters
to promote diversity and opportunity.
We sadly regret that our country has remained so long at war, that there
does not seem to be the political means or will to protect our environment,
and that our government at so many levels appears so fractured and incapable of doing better. Over time, we remain hopeful, but are less optimistic
for the future than we would like to be.
We worked strongly for the election of President Obama and have supported efforts for single-payer, comprehensive national health care. (We
admire so much the work that classmate T.R. Reid has done in his writing
and his programs for PBS to communicate the positive choices other nations have employed to promote improved national health.) We are working hard in San Diego to get more and safer bike lanes and a better public
library for our city.
We send our good wishes to all of our classmates and wish each of you
well in everything you are doing.

As I look over the personal essay that I wrote five years ago, I feel
blessed that almost nothing has changed, other than a few more gray hairs
(hard to find on a bald man . . .) and a little less strength in my arms. I continue to enjoy all of the family, community, professional work, and good
health as I did five years ago, and more so!
Perhaps the gift of aging is to mellow and
appreciate what you have even more?
Linda and I continue to spend as much
time as we can with her three children
and three granddaughters — all of them
live within an hour of us. Our rambling
1700s farmhouse in the country provides a
great retreat for all of them. And, we have
grown to appreciate more and more what
a truly special small, rural town we live in.
Although we are not far from cities and

world-class health care, we are 30 minutes
from any major highways and the pace of life here is reminiscent of what
we were able to enjoy when we first came to Princeton nearly 50 years
ago. From the leisurely conversations, the helping hands, and the friends
who stop by rather than
call, email or tweet … to
our weekly farmer’s market on the Common, the
oldest community fair in
America, and the everyother-Friday “Martini

it for when we will need more modern and one-floor living.
A few years ago we traded the camper van we had been traveling in for
over 10 years for a Honda Civic Hybrid and began to treat ourselves to
nights in small inns and condominiums, after spending a less-than-enjoyable year waking up in a tent to temperatures below freezing. This year,
we drove most of the East Coast — from Cape Breton Island to South
Florida. Oh, and did I forget to mention that the Civic gets four times as
many miles per gallon as the camper van did?
Although I was “retired” a couple of times in my 50s, my consulting
work has been full-time so far in my 60s, and I’m pleased to say that the
past couple of years have been the most enjoyable and rewarding so far.
I work as an independent consultant for small towns in Massachusetts,
as well as state and federal agencies, providing collaborative governance
facilitation and mediation for often-contentious public policy debates and
disputes. Repeating what I wrote five years ago, there is no doubt in my
mind that my Princeton engineering and liberal arts education gave me a
great grounding to be able to both contribute and continue to learn through
this kind of work.

Update since our 40th Reunion: Back to work half-time late in 2006,
this time as special projects director for the Stanford University Libraries. The work involves primarily international collaborative projects, e.g.
full digitization of the more than 500 manuscripts in the Parker Library at
Corpus Christi College, Cambridge. Parker is the least known of the three
most important early-modern library foundations in England. Its holdings,
collected mostly from English monasteries at the time of their dissolution,
account for a substantial proportion of all extant manuscripts in AngloSaxon, and include several magnificently illuminated Bibles. More info at
http://parkerweb.stanford.edu for the very curious. I have also managed
to generate a sequel to my first book about wine: Pacific Pinot Noir: A
Comprehensive Guide for Consumers and Connoisseurs (University of
California Press, 2008). Could re-retirement and yet more wine be lurking
in the near future? Watch this space five years hence for the answer.

We have the joy of healthy grown-up daughters Pamela and Allison and
the joy of the families they have created. Ray Richardson is an oceanographer and scientist working in Rhode Island and married to Pamela.
Andrew Stromberg is a child and adolescent psychiatrist working in the
Boston area and married to Allison. Pam and Ray have two children,
Marena and Nalin, involved in theatre, musicals, singing, the French horn,
ensemble, and tap dancing; Allison and Andy have two children, Isabelle
and Tess, involved in musicals, video, the flute, and hiking to Belmont
Center for pizza. We have been very fortunate as a family to be able to get
together part of the summer.
75 Paula remains deeply interested in adult psychotherapy, especially for
couples, and has expanded her interest in Imago psychotherapy for couples
to develop her own unique style.
She sees couples and individuals in a private-practice format in Davis,
California. She has developed an ongoing interest most recently in what is
called “internal family systems,” an unusual approach which has kept her
work fresh. She loves spending summers on Nantucket and I always take a
big block of vacation in mid-summer to join her there. We’ve hosted various roommates in the past and now are often joined with grandchildren.
I am now in my 22nd year with Kaiser Permanente (KP) as a senior
physician, responsible for child and adolescent psychiatry (CAP) programs in the North Sacramento area. I’ve been involved in developing
groups for the CAP programs for KP throughout the region for adolescents
with mood disorders. My research has been focused on treating youth
with mood disorders. Our research group, along with Jane Gillham ’86,
was the first to do a randomized trial showing that a program designed to
prevent depressive symptoms reduced the number of youth with depressive symptoms who developed the full syndrome of major depression. I
continue to work and see a full panel of kids and their families with an office in Sacramento while living in Davis. Our staff of child and adolescent
psychiatrists has grown from 1.5 when I started (and yes I was the 1.0) to
11 in the Sacramento area! This has been good for plan members, since it’s
beefed up programs a lot.
As the editor for several years of a series on evidence-based practice in
CAP for the child psychitary journal JAACAP, I and other authors made
a solid effort to push the practice of our profession toward effectiveness. I
received a Master of Science from Oxford University in 2004 for a study
examining the five-year outcome of adolescents treated at KP for major
depression.
My most recent paper came from a project focused on organizational
processes at KP and their relationship to efforts to implement evidencebased practice in CAP. It showed the effects of market-share pressures on
implementation of evidence-based practices.

Director, Burmese Migrants Education Project
The Burma cause has been a nearly full-time
proposition for the last five years. My one-man
organization, the Burmese Migrants Education
Project, supported by many generous friends and
classmates, operates schools in Thailand for Burmese migrant workers and provides humanitarian assistance in Burma’s
Irrawaddy Delta, where millions lost everything following a devastating
cyclone in 2008. Burma is a mess, but I’m not giving up.
Time is divided between frantic and hot Southeast Asia and peaceful
and cool Nicasio, a beautiful village in the rolling hills of Marin County,
just north of San Francisco. Life is good. I feel lucky. Notwithstanding the
sad realization that William Faulkner’s legacy is safe, I look forward to
tomorrow.

At the end of 2009 I finished a 10-year stint (on top of an earlier 10year stint) as chairman of my favorite law firm, Garvey Schubert Barer
(120 lawyers, offices in Seattle, Portland, Washington, D.C., New York,
and Beijing, full-service but probably best known for international trade
and transportation). My plan for 2010 was to develop a practice representing nonprofit organizations, lead G.S.B.’s (very robust) pro bono program,
and start moving toward part-time. Out of the blue, a major client of the
firm asked me to consider coming in-house, I got intrigued, G.S.B. was
supportive, and so on September 1, 2010, I joined Saltchuk Resources
as vice president, general counsel, and chief ethics officer (their title, not
mine; hard to fit on a business card). Saltchuk is the parent of a family
of maritime, air cargo, fuel distribution, and real estate companies with
combined annual revenues pushing $2 billion and about 5,000 employees.
Saltchuk has never had an in-house counsel and I’ve never been one, so
we’re learning as we go. I have committed to do this full-time through
2014, so my glide path to part-time just got longer.
In the meantime, Carol retired from the Seattle public schools in June
2010, going out with a bang by being honored at a Seattle Seahawks game
as a Symetra Hero in the Classroom in recognition of her work as a speech
pathologist. Carol is just as happy that I’m still working instead of being
underfoot at home. Her mother and my parents live in the Seattle area, and
Carol is helping everyone in every way.
Our daughter, Kate, received a Ph.D. in clinical psychology from
U.C. San Diego/San Diego State in May 2010 and has a post-doctorate
fellowship at the V.A. Hospital in Seattle. She married Jeff Stelling in
2007, and they have bought a house/put down roots in Seattle. Our son,
Ben, received an M.A. in social work from N.Y.U. and is working with
children and their families for Catholic Community Services. He married
Eryn Karpinski in 2009, and they have bought a house/put down roots in
Portland, where Eryn is an associate with my favorite law firm, Garvey
Schubert Barer. Kate and Ben have become very close friends as adults,
and Jeff and Eryn are wonderful additions to the family. No grandchildren
yet, but interest all the way around.
In my mind, I haven’t retired from basketball, but I last played competitively in 2008. I play tennis and jog a few times each week, and have
83 plans to start playing golf again. Carol and I have both been very active at
St. Mark’s Episcopal Cathedral for many years; most recently Carol was
senior warden during an especially challenging two years, and I have been
chancellor since 2000. I also am a long-time board member of Athletes for
a Better World. (I’m proof you don’t need to be an athlete to serve on the
board; biggest thrill was spending some time with John Wooden, in whose
honor A.B.W. gives an annual award.) I also serve on the visiting committee for the Evans School of Public Affairs at the University of Washington, which has given me an up-close look at the important role played by
public universities and the financial challenges they are facing.
I don’t get to see as many ’66 classmates as I would like, but Carol and
I do get to spend regular time with Don and Adele Delisi because we have
been in a small gourmet club together for many many years. And we spent
a great evening with Wid Slick the night President Obama was elected,
climaxing just after I drove Wid back to his hotel with my being caught in
the middle of the biggest, friendliest, most festive “riot” since our “riot”
as undergrads. (What in the heck were we thinking back then?) Finally,
still one more shout-out to Dave Swayze for arranging my blind date with
Carol at Miami of Ohio a mere 46 years ago.

Let’s see . . . what was I saying? . . . My car keys were right over there
before I got up . . . Oh, wait, was it something about our reunion book?
Sarah and I have spent
most of the past decade as
a happily retired couple
living in Princeton, New
Jersey, just a couple of
blocks from the university. I
continue to ply my trade as
a part-time author, though
I find that my productivity
has slowed in recent years.
I do an occasional magazine
piece (a favorite was on the
50th anniversary of Buddy Lanny and Sarah Jones, Wyoming 2010.
89 Holly’s death) and am currently trying to breathe life into a book idea that
vaguely involves the late great St. Louis Browns baseball team. I continue
to serve on the graduate advisory board of Princeton’s English department,
whose biannual meeting schedule suits me well. I also serve on the board
of the Rita Allen Foundation, a Princeton-based philanthropy that is in the
process of reinventing itself.
Sarah and I celebrated out 40th anniversary last year by taking our three
children and their families on a sentimental journey to the A-Bar-A Ranch
in Wyoming, where we went for many years while they were growing up
(hence the photo of us outfitted as suburban cowboys). We spend most of
every summer at our cabin in Montana, outside of Bozeman, where we
have enjoyed hosting visiting classmates over the years.
We now have four wonderful grandchildren — two in New York City
and two in Philadelphia — and see a lot of them, as well as of our younger
daughter, Cassie, who is a painter and lives in Brunswick, Maine.
The only recent downer is that Sarah and Cassie were separately diagnosed with celiac disease last year, which means that they have said goodbye to cupcakes and pastas and other gluten-laden goodies — not a welcome
event, but they have adapted with good cheer (and good substitutes).
I often think about something my biographical subject, William Clark,
wrote in his 63rd year, to his son George Rogers Hancock Clark: “Do not
suffer yourself to be unhappy from misfortunes or disappointments. We
all have to meet them and should bear them with firmness, resolved to use
every exertion to better our situation, and gain the good will of our fellow
Creatures. My children are now my first consideration, and to see them &c
will be a consideration in my old age not to be equaled by other events.”
We think he got it right. See you at Reunions!

After a four-year Navy obligation, I went to work in New York as a
trust officer. Did financial services management for many years, becoming
CFO or president of various companies.
Bought into an Internet start-up in 1998, determined to make tons of
money. Luckily, actually made a couple of pounds. Decided to become an
investment adviser/broker. Pretty good with the investment advice but a
terrible salesman. Eventually ended up with a salaried investment-advisor
position with UBS handling large “difficult” accounts.
93 Along the way got divorced and moved for three years to what had
been our summer home in Ocean Grove, New Jersey, and made a lot of
friends. After being laid off from UBS in December 2008 I bought a condo
near the beach in Ocean Grove.
While unemployed I helped start a new history club in New York, The
Civil War Forum of Metropolitan New York (www.cwfmny.org) which
meets monthly with a cocktail hour, dinner, and a speaker. We have more
than 60 members, a website, and a quarterly newsletter; we also sponsor trips to Civil War sites. I was honored to be elected president of the
organization.
I’m honored, too, by the Princeton Class of ’66 appointing me as treasurer. I have been a volunteer for years in “Dialing for Dollars” in the Annual Giving campaigns. While I have not always succeeded in prying out
a contribution, it is great talking with classmates who have always listened
with respect and thoughtfulness.

Since our 40th reunion, there have been some “age appropriate” changes: less work, more leisure, opportunities to work with several younger
generations (neuro-cognitive expansion) and appreciation for newer learning opportunities.
Chris and I are in the empty
nest . . . Ellie, married in 2009,
is completing a second graduate
program at N.Y.U. after teaching in
N.Y. public schools on the Lower
East side for four years, living at
an “epicenter” of her generation,
Brooklyn, and is preparing to work
in administrative capacities in
urban education, either with public
school system or charter school
The Leahys: Roller, Chris, Eleanor, Will.
system. Our son, Will (P.U. ’04),
returned to China after graduation for one year and continued in China
policy work and at the U.S. Chamber of Commerce in China-related issues
before returning to law school in Ann Arbor. He (thank the Lord) will
begin employment in May with the Washington office of Aiken Gump.
We have been traveling (three Princeton Journey adventures included
. . . highly recommended), I have begun yoga during past three years,
squash and running have been replaced by the elliptical, volunteering with
our local church and other nonprofits here in Maryland. I remain president of Neurological Medicine, now in 31st year, working only during the
daytime and focused on integrating our practice into the ever-changing
landscape of “health care.” . . . Enough of this.
Eight years ago I joined the board of Princeton Project55, now serving
as president with the institution today known as Princeton AlumniCorps.
The organization has “matured” and is transitioning into a multi-generational Princeton experience . . . true to the mission established in 1989, but
now engaging alumni from the 1960s, ’70s, and ’80s placing experienced
99 and talented alumni in the nonprofit world . . . chapters “2 and 3.” It has
been very rewarding to work with the talents of classmates Lanny Jones,
Jody Kretzmann, Tom Allison, and Charlie Plohn on the expanding horizons of this organization.
AlumniCorps, as well as the programs which I established preparing
secondary-school students for careers in health care as certified nurse
assistants and home-health aides, allows for constant exposure to the
younger and hipper generations.
It continues to be rewarding also, to “mature” with so many ’66ers here
in the Washington area. The three decades in medicine have allowed me to
see each day as a new dawning. Each human encounter remains interesting . . . my hope is that I have given as much as I have been so blessed to
receive.

in a long tin can hurtling toward New Zealand at 40,000 feet. We’re off to
see Tessa’s younger son — well, really to see two young grandchildren!
It can’t be five years already!?! For our 40th I reported on “five busy,
lucky, brief years” and I feel so fortunate to report that again for another
semi-decade, professionally and personally. It has been more difficult for
Tessa. Our 40th reunion effectively was Tessa’s retirement party. Soon
101 102 ISABELLA ROESKE
she began facing some challenges — spending several years caring for an
ailing stepmother and then adding a bionic hip. But she is bouncing back,
happily occupied singing in choral groups, consulting with several health
policy groups, and helping to run the shop in the small Suffolk, England,
village she retired to just before our 40th.
The Atlantic Ocean continues to separate Tessa and me much of the
time — but thank goodness for jumbo jets, email, and satellite phone
connections. And my
fortuitous membership in
Wolfson College, Cambridge, gives me a second
academic home only 60
miles west of Tessa’s
home.
Teaching remains
a consuming passion.
Whatever frustrations the
academic shortcomings
of state-college students
sometimes provoke, most
are well intentioned and

conscientious young
people who will contribute very positively to society. The generation gap
has become a chasm, but age brings patience and perspective. The thought
that students may equate me to their grandparents sobers me, but may
contribute to the warm feelings that emerge in most classes.
In scholarship, the medium and the message get confused in my specialty of history of higher education. Several years were dominated by
being the lead person in a conference and then a book celebrating the 60th
anniversary of the State University of New York (a.k.a. SUNY). Over beer
I had complained to my campus’s acting president that SUNY had failed
to win New Yorkers’ hearts and minds and needed a sense of its history.
Suddenly he was catapulted into the SUNY chancellorship and put me in
charge of using the 60th anniversary of Gov. Thomas E. Dewey’s creative
act to raise our profile on the public’s horizon. Careful what you pray for!
A wonderful collateral benefit of my specialty is that it leads me
to Princeton in various ways. Most satisfying was contributing to the
“Woodrow Wilson as Educator” conference, appropriately sponsored by
the Woodrow Wilson School. My paper tried to dissect the role Wilson’s
Anglophilia played in his remarkable reforms at Princeton and ultimately
in his disastrous conflict with Andrew Fleming West over the Graduate
College. “Dreaming Spires in New Jersey: Anglophilia in Wilson’s Prince­
ton” will appear with the other conference papers in a book next winter.
Much as I enjoy scholarship and divining the angels sitting on the head
of a pin, increasingly my satisfaction stems from what the history profession calls “public history.” That term covers translating our often arcane
work for broader audiences and working to preserve historical memory.
I’ve particularly done that through my Princetoniana oral history project.
Having found, to my shock, that the Princeton University Archives possessed very few oral histories, I initiated a project to record some Tigers
roaring reflectively and retrospectively. Among those have been Bob
Rawson ’66 and Josh Billings ’33, whom Stas’ Maliszewski had brought
to several Plohn Hall Big Three parties. We have almost 30 transcripts
available online on the Mudd Library website for anyone who would like
to sample these intriguing life stories.
The Class of ’66 has played an exceptional role in preserving the mystic chords of memory that bind Princetonians. When I become chair of the
Princetoniana Committee, after Reunions, I will assume a position held by
our classmate Jamie Spencer for an unprecedented two terms in the 1990s.
And as chair I’ll sit on the Alumni Council Executive Committee, which
will be chaired by none other than Henry Von Kohorn ’66!
This year is the centenary of the birth of my father, Class of 1933,
poignantly . . . the march of time. I assembled with my marvelous two siblings to drink his favorite cocktail (dry Manhattan, no cherry) at his grave.
Fortunately my wonderful stepmother (Smith ’38) continues to be a model
of how good health, a liberal education, and a positive mental attitude can
combine into graceful aging.
So I’m finally accepting that I’m a grandfather —
­ aren’t we too young
for that!?! My daughter, who also teaches history, has provided me with
two lovely young additions to the family tree and I’m an honorary grandfather to Tessa’s three lovely young ones.
As we glide toward our 50th reunion I can only hope that the good
health and general happiness of those around me and for all of us in the
Class of 1966 continue for another semi-decade. My only confident prediction is that my ties to Tigertown, to ’66, and to my native New Jersey
will continue growing.

graphic designer and fine artist, specializing in monotype printing. They
have two boys — Cooper, 6, and Kiefer, 4.
My younger daughter, Lucy, lives in Manhattan with her husband,
Spencer. She works for Demos, a nonpartisan public-policy research and
advocacy organization, while Spencer works at Teach for America. They
have one son — Theo, 2.
Lynn and I are mostly in Connecticut for the time being, turning the loft
over to Lucy and her family for a while. Lynn teaches tai chi and chi gung
and thoroughly enjoys it.

I retired in 2009, after 33 mostly
stimulating but occasionally hair-raising years with the Federal Reserve —
as associate secretary of the Federal Reserve Board in Washington during Paul Jim McAfee and grandson James.
Volcker ’49’s years as chairman, and after that as general counsel of the
Richmond Reserve Bank. No matter what you’ve heard or suspected, the
financial meltdown was not entirely my fault. Our kids have grown into
adults I cherish and admire, and who have flown the coop: Charlotte and
her husband are lawyers; John teaches theater; and Andrew’s just recently
114 back from the Peace Corps. Sixty-six became the greatest year again in
2009 when my grandson, James, was born on my 66th birthday. This year
Deirdra and I will celebrate our 40th wedding anniversary — the best is
yet to be — and for once she did not ghostwrite my reunion-book entry.

The two biggest changes in my life since our 40th are: (1) the addition
in 2010 of my sixth, and likely last, grandchild — Emily Ann Lagemann
— and, (2) the addition of an unnamed number of pounds. The former is
a definite keeper, the latter I’d love to shed. By the time of Reunions, my
grandchildren will range in age from 1 to 13. Each of my three children
has contributed two to the fold — four girls and two boys. Four of my
grandchildren live within a very short distance and for two years or so the
other two are residing in Ireland. DJ and I are still happily married and
will celebrate our 45th anniversary a few months after Reunions. A few
more aches and pains, but life is good! I continue to teach at Rutgers Business School and DJ is still working at UMDNJ’s Tuberculosis Center as a
nurse educator. It seems highly unlikely that TB will be cured before DJ
is ready to retire. Her goal is maybe another two years, and I hope to work
until I turn 70, in 2014.

As an Army brat, I grew up all over the East Coast and in Japan and
Germany. My career Army officer father retired and I attended a mediocre
public high school in St.
Louis. It was easy to do well
because no one cared to try.
NROTC scholarship — applied to last available slot at
P.U. Totally unprepared for
academic rigors. Impressed
with the faculty, campus, and
most of the classmates I got
to know. Still value highly
friendships with Allison,
Weimer, Kulczyski, and Lee
and their brides. Replaced Al Rich McConnell at home in Black Mountain, N.C.
Rockhold in Triangle Club
in the spring and toured with Von Daler the next year. Made Ding. English
department classes the high point of a fascinating education. Scholarshiprequired calculus, and science classes still a mystery to me.
Campus Club was great — the JV Tube room, billiards with Kadzamira, hiring the Cowsills, purchasing all the liquor for club parties at the age
of 20, playing shoot the moon on the patio with Tabler, spring of senior
year playing volleyball and discovering Route One roadhouses with great
jukeboxes.
For reasons still unclear to me, I elected to become a Marine officer
116 rather than an ensign. I showed up at an appointment on campus to have
my name placed on some insurance policy benefiting P.U., only to notice
all the other NROTC students who had selected the Marine Corps had
somehow also had their names drawn to be insured.
Got through Marine training and went to Pensacola for flight school
as a second lieutenant. Got engaged to Joy, who was working on her
M.A. at U. Chicago. Could — Not — Fly. Married her and was transferred to California, from which on three day’s notice I was instantly
transformed from a newly trained tank officer to an infantry officer and
shipped to Vietnam at the end of the 1968 Tet Offensive. Every Marine,
after all, is basically a grunt.
Vietnam was tougher than calculus. WIA 5/18/68 and hospitalized in
Japan. Recuperated on Okinawa, where Joy visited me for 45 days and
became the unlucky recipient of all I had experienced, seen, and heard in
my truncated tour. But for her I would likely be less stable than I would
like to think I am. We had two delightful years together in Japan, where
Jeremy was born. I was asked to run the brig (Marine jail) on base, which
promptly suffered a 4th of July prisoners’ riot. Small fires were set but no
one was hurt and I declined the strong suggestion of some senior officers
that I restore order with loaded weapons. I was fired from that position and
we were social outcasts for our last six months in Japan while I testified as
an eyewitness in general courts martial.
After calculus, not flying, and Vietnam, the hardest thing I attempted
was law school. Virtually no one smiled at the insanely competitive factory I attended. Got involved in student government and Vietnam Veterans
Against the War, and worked as a prosecutor before and after graduation in 1974. Our second son, Sam, was born in 1979. We lived happily
in Webster Groves, Missouri, while I moved from small, to medium, to
large law firms as a trial lawyer in St. Louis. Worked and enjoyed trying
cases for nine years throughout the U.S. for Continental Baking Company
(Twinkies and Wonder Bread). Took a similar position at the corporate
headquarters of FedEx Express in Memphis for nine more years, tried a
ton of discrimination cases and mentored young attorneys. Retired November 30, 2009.
Joy and I now live outside of Black Mountain, in the Blue Ridge Mountains east of Asheville, North Carolina, and cannot believe how lucky we
have been to be able to come to this truly beautiful part of the country. We
are up a dirt-and-gravel road a mile and a half off the pavement, way up in
the treetops — over which we see magnificent sunrises and sunsets. Like
Tiny, I find retirement has been greatly underrated and underreported. If
word got out no one would work.
Overall, life to date has been an amazing journey. Princeton has been a
very special part of it. As has Joy.

Sooner or later we all get to a point where we cease being productive
members of society in the conventional sense of doing stuff society is willing to pay us to do. There are other compensations, of course.
At the end of 2006 I finished my seventh and final year as editor of We
Proceeded On, the quarterly journal of the Lewis and Clark Trail Heritage
Foundation. My tenure coincided with the three-year Lewis and Clark
bicentennial and was maybe the best job I’ve ever had. I immersed myself
in a subject I cared deeply about and did whatever I pleased — for all
practical purposes I reported to no one, and no one reported to me. I flatter
myself by thinking that when I left the job I may have known as much
about Lewis and Clark as anyone on earth.
I moved on with the idea of writing more books, but the month or so
Nancy and Jim Merritt,
right, with Ian and
Jennifer Swope, Fiona
and Malcolm, Martha’s
Vineyard, June 2010.
120 I’d planned to take off before bearing down on some big project stretched
into more months, and then into years. Now, more or less guilt free, I
enjoy getting up in the morning without any set plans beyond the ritual of
breakfast, coffee, and The New York Times. I write occasional articles on
obscure topics for obscure, if respected, scholarly publications. (See, for
example, my recent pieces on the World War I letters of Edward A. MacMillan ’14, for The Princeton University Library Chronicle, and on John
H. Slack, a forgotten 19th-century fish culturist, and his futile efforts to establish a salmon run in the Delaware River, for The American Fly Fisher.)
I tend to my vegetable garden, dabble in genealogy, work fitfully trying
to improve my French, a subject I ingloriously flunked twice at Princeton,
and fish — usually alone, occasionally with Peter Longstreth, who refuses
to retire so we can fish together more.
Nancy and I remain happily ensconced
in our home in Pennington, nine miles west
of Princeton, where we’ve lived since 1975.
Increasingly our lives revolve around our
children and their families.
Our older daughter, Jennifer Swope, and
her husband, Ian, live in Winchester, Massachusetts, outside Boston. Jenn works parttime as a curator at the Museum of Fine Arts
and does some adjunct teaching in her field
of American material culture. Ian works for a
design firm specializing in museum exhibits
(credits include the Marine Corps museum at Nancy and Eirene, August 2010.
Quantico, Virginia, and the Infantry museum
at Ft. Benning, Georgia). Their kids, Fiona and Malcolm, are 11- and
9-year-old incarnations, respectively, of Taylor Swift and Tom Brady. Malcolm began playing Pop Warner football last fall, a transformative experience, and Fiona is a rising star in Winchester’s annual Nutcracker ballet.
In 2007 our younger daughter, Melissa, married Markos Valaris, of Athens, Greece. They met as graduate students at the University of Pittsburgh.
In the fall of 2009 they moved to Sydney, Australia, to take up faculty
positions in the philosophy department at the University of New South
Wales. (She’s a Kant scholar, he’s an epistemologist.) We visited them
twice in 2010 — in February and again in August, two months after Melissa gave birth to our third grandchild, a dark-eyed beauty with a fetchingly exotic name, Eirene Zoë Merritt-Valaris. For the foreseeable future
we’ll be making the 10,000-mile, 22-hour fight to Australia at least once
and probably twice a year. We love the energy and buzz of Sydney and
expect eventually to explore other parts of Australia. (One of the ancillary
pleasures of these visits is catching up with Lynn and Sidney Anderson.)
I recall a conversation with Lanny Jones a few years after we’d gradu121 ated. We were in our mid-20s and at the start of a phase in life that seemed
to stretch indefinitely into the future. With formal schooling behind us, he
observed, our lives had become “open-ended.” Hopefully they will remain
so for a few more years.
In the words of our generational peer Keith Richards, “Good to be here.
Good to be anywhere.”

The past five years have been in many ways frustrating, challenging,
and, now, fulfilling. I will briefly relate the developments because other
classmates may have experienced the same type of roller coaster.
Five years ago I was managing partner of the Houston office of a nationwide law firm. After a change in management of the firm, the decision
was made to drop energy law (my specialty), telecom law, and administrative law. Unlike race horses put out to stud, I was faced with looking for a
position without a “book of business” (reduced because my time had been
spent administering firm business). The obvious prospect was an in-house
position in an energy business. After all, I had over 30 years’ experience
and a wealth of knowledge and contacts.
Hold on, Tiny. How old are you? Well, my age doesn’t matter; I will
take a lower position regardless of title. Too bad but that position (read “all
positions”) have been filled!
125 Frustrated and, frankly, a bit scared, I joined some young litigators
I had hired at my former firm who struck out on their own. They are
accomplished commercial litigators and could help me with my few
remaining client matters; they are also wonderful young folks. So there I
toiled, handling my remaining client matters. The situation was bleak but
not desperate.
Brian Breuel had long been my financial guru so, together, we planned
a strategy that assumed no new clients and a continuing decline in existing
client matters. As a result, Betty
Lou and I “downsized” our
home, bought a home north of
Houston on Lake Conroe, and
prepared for a functional retirement at the end of 2005.
It sounds easy but it was not!
Our Houston home was Betty
Lou’s dream home and it was
tough for her to part. Getting
medical insurance was neither pleasant nor inexpensive.
Explaining and reassuring Betty
Lou that once I stopped workTiny, right, and Rocky Wayburn.
ing we would NOT run out of
money in two months was difficult. After all, I had worked from the time I
was 14 and she had worked until we moved to Houston. Emotionally, the
transition was tough.
But we did make the change. For my part, I am convinced retirement
is underrated. I enjoy coffee and the newspaper (I use the word loosely in
describing the Houston Chronicle) on the patio, playing tennis four times
a week, and taking golf lessons with Betty Lou. (Golf must be the Devil’s
sport; how can it be so difficult to hit a ball sitting perfectly motionless
on the ground?) I read two or three books a week, take walks, and really
enjoy the slower, more quiet pace. One small downside is the distance
from our house to stores for groceries and BL’s shopping. But that simply
means we need to be more organized on our outings.
Betty Lou and I are having a wonderful time. Of course, now that I
am home most of the time (I still go into the office every three or four
weeks for a day) Betty Lou has a list of chores for me. We are still sorting
through how much I really have to do for my share. We plan to travel a
fair amount while we enjoy good health. We are truly blessed, particularly
with our dear friends. We have enjoyed immensely visits by the Nahases,
D’Avellas, Eastwicks, Plohns, Krosins, Birkelands, Thacher, and Von
Kohorn. We look forward to more visits from friends.

Pam and I continue our life of farming — engaging and sharing our
farm with the public at Terhune Orchards, just five miles south of Princeton. The farm has grown to about 200 acres since we purchased it in 1975,
and the number of crops has increased from 3 to 36.
A few years ago we began growing wine grapes and making wine on
the farm. This is our second year of wine production. We offer eight varieties, and sales are good.
Our enterprise is bolstered by the full-time addition of our daughter
Tannwen and the interest and participation of daughter Reuwai, as well as
by the engagement of their husbands, Jim Washburn and Mike Hanewald,
and children. (Hooray for grandchildren!) Our son, Mark, is an Army
infantry sergeant who has survived three tours in Afghanistan and is now a
recruiter in Bellingham, Washington.

with their children, Maya,
Tess, and Sasha.
127 In addition to selling at the farm and at area farm markets, and operating a popular pick-your-own business, we supply restaurants and schools
in Princeton. You might see our names on some of the menus.
We’ve also been much engaged in hunger-relief efforts. Fifteen years
ago we started New Jersey Farmers Against Hunger. Today this organization annually distributes to needy families over a million pounds of
produce donated by N.J. farmers. Most of the credit goes to Pam.
We are truly fortunate. We’ve been healthy and happy. Our family is

Practicing law as a partner with the Nixon Peabody law firm. Slowing
down to half time in 2011. Have become an avid duplicate bridge player,
having played regularly in college with roommate Wendell Ing at Wilcox
Hall and then basically giving up the game for 42 years. Achieved “life
master” status with the American Contract Bridge League (truly meaningless, unless you don’t have it) this past November.
Both daughters are grown and living in New York City. In order to
spend more time with the family, Gayle and I rented an apartment on the
Upper East Side. We live in Florida from mid-October until mid-June and
divide the four summer months between Buffalo (our former home) and
N.Y.C. Thankfully, everyone’s health is good and we are very much enjoying or senior citizen status.

On a bookcase in my mother’s home is a picture of a small boy standing in the middle of Washington Road waving a football pennant with
an orange “P” on it. I know the “P” is orange, even though the print is in
black and white, grainy, and
dog-eared, with the delicate
scalloping around the edges
that characterized Brownie
prints from that era. The year is
1947. The boy is three and the
pennant is as long as he is tall.
He is watching a river of men
that completely fills 1879 Arch
and stumbles down the steps
toward Prospect Avenue. It was
the fifth reunion of the Class
of 1942. The men stumble because each one is covered head- Jim and Beth Parmentier.
to-foot in a heavy monk’s robe,
complete with a hood and cowl (but no fly) to which steps (and urinals)
posed a serious challenge. The temperature and humidity combined to
make as sweltering a June day as Princeton can offer, and those robes had
to be the worst choice of reunion costumes since the P-rade began. Somewhere in that river was my dad, but I can never pick him out in the picture.
Perhaps in that river was Steve Ferris’s Dad, and Bill Johnson’s dad, and
Joe Mann’s and Jim Merritt’s and Walt Smedley’s and Ed Whitman’s, but
I didn’t know any of them and I doubt that they were there. But I had been
there, even before. In the summer of 1944 (so I’m told on good authority)
I attended on-campus lectures in utero, since my mom was a townie. After
her 1943 graduation from Wellesley and marriage two weeks later, she
came back home in June of 1944 to live with her mom while Dad went to
repair planes on Ford Island.
There have been Parmentiers (or their conjugal relatives) at Princeton
on and off since 1936. They graduated in ’39, ’41, ’42, ’50, ’66, ’69 and
’71, as well as (I just discovered on TigerNet) a Noel Parmentier who
graduated in the Class of 1872, which intriguingly disrupts my family
tigertree. But there will be no more. None of my sisters or my cousins or
134 my aunts have, as the song goes, “sent their sons to Princeton … it’s better
than Cornell.” (Gotta be careful here … Beth is a fourth-generation Cornellian. What if she reads this? “It’s only a song, Beth, really! The lyricist
just needed something to rhyme with “hell.” Right. That’ll help a lot.) So,
anyway, that tigertree ends. But I have another.
The Class of ’66 has become my Princeton family tree. I can’t remember who asked me to be Class Scribe. Bob Nahas, probably, or maybe Bud
D’Avella. Here I want to thank them, publicly and in print, for considering
me a worthy successor to Charlie Emmons, Bill Bethune, T.R. Reid, Jeff
McCollum, and Lanny Jones. (I know there must have been some practical aspects to that decision, but still, I appreciate it.) For 20 years now,
writing to deadline every two weeks with severe word restrictions and
just dribbles of scribbles on dues-slips to work with has given be a unique
view of our class, of our university, of our generation, and of our world.
It has kept me close to Princeton and to its many projects and activities.
It has gotten me to the edge of high social circles, such as backstage at
McCarter. It has taken me, through the Princeton Prize in Race Relations, to the brink of tough social issues that I might never have known or
understood. As a faculty member at three other universities over 40 years
I am well aware that Princeton the university does much more than offer
a unique four-year undergraduate experience. For many people, that is the
sum total of their college remembrance and association. But not at Prince­
ton. From my perch on PAW I have stayed in touch with that undergraduate experience and also helped maintain and promote a network of friends
that both grows and
shrinks as the years go by.
I expect that I have known
most of you who read this
text for many more years
than four. We’re currently
friends. Why else would
you bother to read it? We
may not have . . . probably
didn’t . . . meet while we
were on campus but I’ll
bet I know you. I’ll bet
I have written or spoken
to you sometime over the The Iolanthe in full sail with Jim Parmentier at the helm.
past 20 years, perhaps
about your own family, perhaps about your career, or your books or your
triumphs and, at some sadder times, perhaps about your own tragedies.
You are part of my family. Thanks for staying in touch!
In June of last year I retired from my teaching post at Mass General
Hospital’s Institute of Health Professions after a continuous career of
135 mediocre research in both academic and pharmaceutical industry institutions. There were no great discoveries, and no one now reads the papers
that I wrote. My efforts to coordinate H.I.V./AIDS education in developing countries pretty much fell apart due to lack of funding, but along the
way I learned a fair amount about how to do it. I.H.P. is a graduate school
that offers a variety of health-related clinical and practical Master’s-level
degrees from nursing and physical training to radiology, informatics, and
speech communication. I don’t do clinical work, and so in recent years my
efforts focused on developing, teaching, and administering an online program of clinical investigation. The students came from all over the country
. . . and in the early years of this decade the techniques for online instruction were just being developed. They’re better now, and I am still learning
and incorporating new ones into my current teaching.
I live in Brunswick, Maine, and am a faculty member in the Biopharma
Educational Initiative, a degree program in the School of Health Related
Professions at the University of Medicine and Dentistry of New Jersey
(UMDNJ). I fell into this position three years ago when I was approached
by an audience member after giving a talk at a national scientific meeting
on the competencies I thought clinical researchers needed to have before
they should be allowed to conduct clinical studies of new drugs or devices
on humans. As sometimes happens to outspoken folk I was invited to help
UMDNJ design a program to do just that . . . and then teach in it. It was
“put up or shut up” time, and it looks like I’ll have gainful employment
for several more years. Although the “gain” isn’t very “full” there is a lot
of satisfaction in seeing programs develop the way you suggest. For those
who are interested, you can check out the BEI at http://shrp.umdnj.edu/
dept/biopharma/index.html.
So that’s an update on my 40th reunion biography. Anyone who wants
to know about earlier years can check that 40th write-up. It covers the
same sailing, singing, and science activities that have characterized me
since my years at Princeton. Beth and I are still together (28 years) and
Iolanthe is sheltered in a barn on Great Island, about six miles from here,
patiently waiting the coming summer and a trip back up into the Bay of
Fundy. I bought a motorcycle a few years back (my fourth in 40 years),
but I wrote about that in the November 1 issue of last year’s PAW. I have
built four small boats over the years, and our classmate Hank Cygan (now
a neighbor living in nearby Bath) has promised to help me build at least
one more before we both get old. In summary, I’m healthy, I have plenty
to do, I have all the toys I need, I have a home in Maine, and I have a wife
whom I love and who loves and supports me. At 66, I’m happy . . . and I
hope you are, too!

Since penning a paragraph for our 40th reunion book, the most significant changes in our lives have been becoming grandparents (Mikey
in January 2007 and Lily in May 2009) and my retirement from Merrill
Lynch. Our daughter, Chandler, her husband, Michael
Dektas, and their two children live in Cincinnati. We
see them often but not often
enough. Our son, Charles,
has started a freelance
photography business and
has had some early success
with published photos of the
Cotuit Kettleers of the Cape
Cod Baseball League and
Charles Plohn (in DaVinci hat) and family in reviewing stand,
of the Princeton University 2010 P-rade. From left: son-in-law Michael Dektas with Mikey,

the Aspire capital campaign.
Each year we especially enjoy our family vacation on Nantucket.
Dorothy continues to be involved in New Jersey state and local community organizations, but at a less frenzied pace than when we were younger.
No need to change the sentiment from our 40th book . . . she remains my
trophy wife now after more than 40 years of marriage.
After almost 35 years with Merrill Lynch, I retired in July 2008 and
managed to say farewell to the firm and the old Yankee Stadium at the
same time with a party for family and some friends in the Merrill suite
behind home plate at a Yankee game. It was truly a field-of-two-dreams
event! I certainly don’t miss the daily commute nor the changing culture
on Wall Street. I obviously miss the compensation but most especially the
“action” of investment banking and equity trading.
Retirement is not exactly what I thought it would be . . . but I am get139 ting better at it. A meaningful amount of my time is spent in interaction
with Princeton University . . . auditing courses, attending football and
basketball games, coordinating the P-rade while also serving as Grand
Marshal for the past three years (a job I expect to do through 2012), and
hosting our annual fall Class of 1966 event at Plohn Hall.

As always, health seems to play a major role in our lives. Four years
ago Nancy underwent the Whipple procedure at Johns Hopkins for pancre140 atic cancer. She was one of the lucky ones, with the surgery providing the
cure. Right now I am undergoing radiation treatment for prostate cancer,
which is only a small bump in the road compared to what Nancy went
through. Our grandchildren — William, who is 4 1/2, and Caitlin, 2 1/2
— are flourishing, and we spend a lot of time in Atlanta enjoying their
company. Next year I will again be acting chair of the Department of Art
History and Archaeology at Maryland. My latest publications are The Artist as Original Genius: Shakespeare’s “Fine Frenzy” in Late-EighteenthCentury British Art (University of Delaware Press, 2007) and James Barry,

My offering for the 40th reunion book arrived too late for publication, so what follows incorporates some of that content with an update on
events since the 40th.
My love affair with Princeton has now lasted for more than 45 years; it
gets richer and more satisfying every year. You Classy ’66ers have played
a substantial role in this relationship! I’m forever grateful to the dean of
admissions for having had the insight/courage to admit all of us to this
great place!
As I have said to some of you, I have had the honor and privilege of
serving Princeton as a trustee in significant part because you guys expressed confidence in me during
our days on the campus. My tenure on Princeton’s board, which
began just before our 20th and
ended just before our 40th, was a
thoroughly satisfying experience,
largely because of the remarkable
associations it afforded with so
many wonderful Princetonians.
Supported by Princeton’s truly
remarkable alumni, the university has prospered on all fronts:
Beautiful in our days, the campus
is even more so today; the faculty
and the student body are stronger
and more diverse; and excellent
as our education was, Princeton is
academically broader and deeper
than it was then. In all this progress, members of the Class of ’66
have played a significant role — Bob and Judy Rawson at Oxford University during a
break from Professor John V. Fleming *63’s Chaucer
in support of Annual Giving, of
schools committees, of athletics, Alumni College, September 2007.
of the Princetonian and the PAW, of the Princeton AlumniCorps (formerly
Project 55), of regional alumni associations, of the class itself, and in
numerous other ways. Thanks go to all!

Unlike many of you whose retirement I envy, I’m still lawyering away
at Jones Day, where I’ve now been for 40 years, mostly trying antitrust
cases. Many years ago I became involved in the firm’s management, and I
was responsible for managing the Cleveland office for 15 years.
In the late fall of 2008, with the blessing of my law partners, I became
interim dean of the School of Law of Case Western Reserve University, allowing me to serve the profession in a different manner and to see lawyers
from a different perspective. For a variety of reasons the university’s president asked me to extend my “interim” service, so I will continue through
the end of June 2011. Then, I expect to return full time to Jones Day.
Extracurricularly, I have devoted most of my time to education issues,
both the urban challenges in K through 12 and the fiscal and other issues
facing higher education in the Cleveland area. In 2005-2006, at the request
of American Bar Association President Michael Greco ’65, I chaired the
A.B.A. Commission on Civic Education and the Separation of Powers,
which sought to contribute to the American public’s understanding of,
and appreciation for, the role of our courts. In 2007 I was appointed to the
board of Cleveland State University, and I currently serve as vice-chair of
the board. This offers me the opportunity to contribute to the advancement
of urban education for our region.
Judy completed her second term as mayor of Shaker Heights in 2007.
She remains energized by the economic development and budget issues
of our inner-ring suburb and of our county. Recently, a small group of
reformers, including Judy, rode a corruption tsunami in order to pass a
new county charter that introduces separation of powers and clear accountability. The Democratic power base opposed it — and lost. Then Judy trichaired the transition workgroup on economic development, for improved
strategic, collaborative decision-making. The new officials took office
January 1. Now we’ll see whether reform works!
Our son Alex ’01 and his wife, Anh, are working as hard as ever at
McKinsey and the Gates Foundation, respectively, with still a little time to
enjoy just about every outdoor activity Seattle offers. They just bought a
lovely house near downtown and are expecting a little girl as this is written. So Judy and I will be dusting off our skills with babies, and supporting Continental/United in a big way.
Greg (Colgate ’04) and Taryn, a recent Harvard Law graduate, have
each accepted jobs for next year in San Francisco/Silicon Valley. After
three years with Princeton-inspired Teach for America, teaching in the
Bronx and then mentoring beginning teachers in Brooklyn, Greg is now
completing his M.B.A. at the School of Management at Yale. Taryn is currently clerking for Federal Judge Droney in Hartford. Oh — and they are
getting married at Yale over Labor Day weekend.
In short, all is well on our various fronts, and Judy and I look forward
very much to catching up with our friends when we meet at the 45th!

“You can be whatever you
want, but get your M.D. degree so
you have something to fall back
on,” my mother said to me over 45
years ago. Fortunately, I took her
advice. I got my degree, trained
as a medical oncologist, and then
became a drug developer. There
are actually a few cancer drugs on
the market in part because of my
efforts, and I am proud of that. All Jesse and Justin Reich with Izszy and Adella.

new drugs as a consultant, working part time. It certainly beats the highpressure jobs I’ve had in the past.
Last year was great because both my sons had little girls. They are precious! They live on the other side of the continent, so I don’t get to visit
with them. Fortunately, with computer technology I get to see them, but
not near as often as I would like.
My mother was right about something else — the importance of education. I am thankful for the education I received at Princeton. Who knows,
maybe my grandkids will attend.

Six years ago, I made a career change of sorts, leaving my private practice of psychiatry in Pennsylvania and moving to Yakima, Washington,
to accept a position as the medical director of a large community mentalhealth agency. My wife, Karen, and I had raised seven kids between us.
They were comfortably settled, mostly up and down the Eastern seaboard,
literally from Portland, Maine, to Clearwater, Florida. We were looking
for an adventure that would help us establish a life experience that was
uniquely ours to share. While our children and nine grandchildren remain
an integral and joyful part of our lives, we have enjoyed the pleasures of
living in the distant Pacific Northwest.
Personally, a career change has been a gratifying and growthful experience. The work pace is less demanding and the challenges of serving the
mental-health needs of patients within a community context have been
rewarding. Given continued good health and soundness of mind, I hope to
be working for at least another four years.
The past two years I have been invited to interview high school students applying to Princeton. This experience has been personally gratifying in that it continues to restore my faith in our younger generation and
allows me to express my affection for the Princeton experience, which I
will always regard with fond appreciation.

Retired from lawyering in 2006, a few years earlier than planned because of long-developing eye problems. Traveling beyond the N.Y.C. area
is difficult, and I am unable to read as much as I’d like. Nevertheless, I am
enjoying pleasures of retirement that I long looked forward to: I lead my
life on a schedule of my own, not clients’, choosing; I’m no longer couped
up in a Manhattan office building when I’d prefer to be in Central Park or
roaming the narrow streets of the West Village; and music, which I always
considered one of the chief joys of life, has assumed an even greater
meaning for me.
In the 1990s, it became clear that my eye problems would prohibit me
from using a computer. So my secretary operated my email for the remainder of my working days and I, fortunately, was exempted from the requirement to carry a Blackberry (which I probably would have checked each
time I awakened during the night, thus inducing insomnia and, eventually,
lunacy) and to use successive waves of communications technologies.
Fortunately, too, Aileen (who now operates email for me) is in good
health and enjoying retirement from the grueling life of an N.Y.C. publicschool teacher (although she has been saddled since 2006 with the responsibility of overseeing the care of her mother and, until his death in 2010,
her father). At the other end of the age spectrum, our son, Jason, graduated
from Harvard Business School in 2007 and immediately relocated to Los
Angeles. He works on the investment side of a private-equity firm (CIM
Group) that focuses on real estate and infrastructure.
When I think about the fact that 45 years have passed since our graduation, it occurs to me that the 45th reunion class in 1966 was the Class of
1921 — men who graduated a year after commercial radio was introduced
and seven years before penicillin was discovered. Given the accelerating
pace of technological and medical innovation and social change since we
graduated, I wonder if most of today’s undergraduates don’t view us as
creatures from a more remote time than we viewed the men of ’21.

Since Princeton, I’ve lived on the Upper West Side in New York City.
Eight years ago I married a terrific woman, Christine Flynn, a Wellesley
and N.Y.U. Law grad, who has had several extraordinary careers in government and real estate. We have two kids in college.
I have been practicing architecture for 35 years with my partner Michael Pribyl ’66*69 and a great staff. For about 10 years we also had a
Seattle branch, but the commuting got to be a drag, so we turned it over to
our staff there (though I love Seattle, my heart is in N.Y.C.). Practice has
given me great opportunities, including interesting clients (even a Beatle
and several Time magazine cover subjects) and projects. Right now we are
doing mostly educational work — private schools, several law schools,
and campus plans. We’ve done pretty much every sort of project, which
has given us a fascinating peek into all sides of life — personal, corporate,
not-for-profit, etc. Current work often includes very complex design, zoning, and engineering issues, which keep it very challenging.
It has also been a springboard for other side careers. I’ve spent a lot
of time on civic and professional issues, helping write the landmarks
and zoning guidelines to preserve the Broadway theaters and keep Times
Square a vibrant entertainment district, serving as president of the A.I.A./
N.Y.C. and later of the New York Foundation for Architecture, a group
that, among other things, teaches architects to teach K-12 kids in N.Y.C.
public schools about the built environment. An insurance company for
whom we have designed headquarter and branch offices for 30 years asked
me 10 years ago to be on its board, so I’ve had a chance to see from the
inside how a large property and casualty insurance company works (very
well, I might add).
For the last 20 years I’ve had the extremely satisfying opportunity to
teach at Columbia’s Graduate School of Architecture, Planning and Preservation. The students (particularly those from Princeton) are bright and
motivated; they get a GREAT crop there. I teach “professional practice,”
156 and have just finished a textbook for these required courses, published
last month by W.W. Norton. It’s called (surprisingly enough) Professional
Practice: A Guide to Turning Designs into Buildings. Writing a book was
a very satisfying experience, a chance to distill and set down everything
I’ve learned since Princeton (at 144 pages I guess that doesn’t say much
for how much I’ve learned since getting my Princeton graduate degree in
1969). Hopefully it will be useful for everyone involved in the building
process, not just architecture students, but also clients.
In retrospect, my undergraduate and graduate education at Princeton
provided a great springboard for life and practice. My only regret is that I
don’t remember more of it!
I see I’ve run out of space, so I won’t have room to tell you about the
strange things I’ve heard about some of our classmates. Maybe at the
45th? Look forward to seeing everyone in May!

The last few years have been ones of transition. At the end of 2010 I
finally retired from my investment practice, turning the business over to
my son, Scott. I had eased out gradually, working less each year at the
157 158 JIM MERRITT

business and more on my scholarly endeavors. I am now eager to devote
my full attention to these pursuits. Most of my work involves bibliography. My first book, A Guide to Collecting Everyman’s Library, continues
to sell very well even though it is now almost six years old. I am just about
ready to publish a larger
successor to this work but
have become side-tracked
by my latest project. Two
other books, to which I am
a contributor, will appear
in the spring of 2011.
My interest in Samuel
Johnson and his circle extends back over 30 years.
The year 2009 marked
the 300th anniversary of
Dr. Johnson’s birth and
there were many conferTerry Seymour at the site of the Globe Theatre, September
ences and celebrations. I
attended the most notable 2007, during John V. Fleming *63’s Chaucer Alumni College.
of these, three days at Har- Below: Searching for used-book bargains with Bob Rawson.
vard in August followed
by a week at Pembroke
College, Oxford, in September, and culminating
in Lichfield, Dr. Johnson’s
birthplace. These events
provided unique opportunities to luxuriate in all the
current critical activity and
meet the most significant
Johnson and Boswell
scholars from around the
world. Early in 2010 I was
elected to the Johnsonians,
unusual for someone without a formal academic affiliation. The Johnsonians was founded in 1948 by Mary Hyde, later Viscountess Eccles. Typically there are about 100 members, mostly academics, but with a smattering of collectors and Johnson enthusiasts. Mrs. Hyde (now deceased) left
her magnificent Johnson collection to Harvard.
Growing out of all this activity and my book-collecting interests, I developed my current project in cooperation with the Boswell Office at Yale.
Some of you may recall the exceptional exhibit last year at the Library of
Congress where Thomas Jefferson’s personal library was reconstructed
and placed on display. My hope is to perform a similar feat for Boswell.
Unlike Jefferson, who was a meticulous record-keeper, Boswell and
his heirs documented the family library in fits and starts. There was no
inventory or sale of his books upon his death. Thus, I am embarked upon
a massive detective job, using auction records, book-seller catalogues,
and partial inventories performed at various stages. The work has put
me in touch with librarians around the world, and will necessitate some
travel this year. Even when institutions have excellent digital records they
seldom capture all the information I require. Many of the libraries lost
valuable provenance information when records were converted from cards
to computerized data.
I continue to play golf year around. My regular partner in Pennsylvania is Jim Bartholomew. Jim provides a steady hand to complement my
erratic game. My mere appearance on the course sends most woodland
creatures scrambling for safety. My running has slowed to a crawl: no photos, please. In the interests of continuity, however, I furnish the following
updated statistics as of year end 2010: career miles: 38,370; career races:
452. Rounds of golf per year (last six years average): 140.
While wintering in Florida I have spent more time practicing the piano.
Last year I performed in public for the first time since high school. I
selected one of the easier Beethoven piano sonatas but it was rewarding to
work at the instrument again instead of just dabbling, as I have done for
the past 50 years.
Adrienne and I enjoy travel, with Italy our favorite destination. We
have a few more spots in the world we would like to see, and as with most
of us in the Class of ’66, we hope to have the time and the good health to
get there.

I was born in Montreal, but my father, a neurosurgeon, moved to
the United States when I was two years old. After his death, I received
full-tuition scholarships to Princeton and then Johns Hopkins School of
Medicine.
In April 1968, while at Hopkins, I witnessed the Martin Luther King
riots. I spent a summer in Kingston, Ontario, and met my future wife — a
resident of Ottawa. I returned to Toronto and then to Ottawa for residency
training.
As the Quebec separatist movement grew, it appeared to me that a
powerful argument had been overlooked by those in the federal government, namely that when a person required admission to any hospital in
Canada, one of the questions asked by the clerk was, “Are you a resident
of Canada?”
For those from Europe or the United States, the interprovincial rate was
quadrupled to about $3,000 per day; almost certainly this would have been
true as well for residents of an independent Quebec. Moreover, residents
of Quebec, like all other North Americans, were aging, and many were
developing medical conditions that would disqualify them from obtaining private travel insurance to visit friends and relatives in other Canadian
provinces.
I used these arguments in a series of letters and op-ed articles in major
newspapers from Vancouver to St. John’s. I also paid out of my own
pocket for half a dozen of the best articles to be translated into French.
These were eventually published in most major Quebec newspapers.
160 Le Journal de Montreal has a circulation of 400,000. If even one of my
articles caused only 10 percent of its readers to vote to remain in Canada,
that would be 40,000 additional votes. How many votes decided the 1995
Quebec referendum? — 55,000!
Over the years, I have written articles dealing with physician portability
for Quebec residents, pharmacare, financial protection of health care professionals during a pandemic, and the need to provide incentives to retain
older physicians in the work force.
In May 2010, I was one of 12 physicians in the province to receive a
life membership award from the Ontario Medical Association.
I am still in full-time practice in internal medicine. I supervise regular
and nuclear stress ECGs at my local community hospital and see new
consultations and follow-up patients at a local outpatient clinic.
My wife, Elizabeth, worked for the federal government and then did
consulting until her retirement about a year ago.
We have two sons and one daughter. The older son is working in Toronto. The other two are still in Ottawa.
We are still living in a passive solar house that we designed ourselves
and built in 1980. It is on an acre lot adjacent to a golf course. My chief
interest in summer is gardening, and I have collected several hundred
varieties of hostas, iris, and daylilies.

I am continuing to work in real estate development as a founding owner
of the Bozzuto Group (now 22 years in business). I hope to work for
another two years or so in the business, which is mainly centered in the
Mid-Atlantic region. Work takes a lot of
my time, but I still enjoy it greatly.
While I gave up running a few years ago
(knee and ankle injuries), I continue to play
some racquetball and also cycle, ski, and
play golf. So I continue to be quite active.
Mary also continues to operate her
children’s clothing business in Annapolis.
When she has spare time, she dabbles in her
hobby of taxidermy. Our two sons, Mark
and Duncan, live in the Washington, D.C.,
area, which is nice for us. Mark is in his
fellowship as a pediatric surgeon at Children’s Hospital in Washington, and Duncan
works for my company. Our daughter, Tara,
John at our 40th reunion.
recently moved from Las Vegas to Aspen
(good move!). We hope she will continue to stay there for an extended period since it is fun for us to visit! Both boys are married, and we have four
163 grandchildren (two boys and two girls). Since they live nearby, we see a
good deal of them, which is great!
Attached is a photo from our last reunion, which I hope to somewhat
resemble at our 45th! If you are down our way in Annapolis, give us a call.

It seems strange to be contemplating my
45th reunion. The last Princeton reunion which
I attended was our 25th. Where have the past 20
years gone? Living in San Francisco for the past
30-plus years and wife Ilia being a teacher have made a trip to New Jersey
in May more of a challenge than when she and I were living in N.Y.C.
prior to our move to California.
This reunion will be especially bittersweet because my daughter, Felicia Antonia, who was brutally murdered seven years ago here in S.F., was
with Ilia, son Justin, and me at our 25th. I still remember her at the P-rade:
a plucky, happy-go-lucky 13-year-old at the time, a mischievous but radiant grin stretching from ear to ear, a class of ’66 “bikers” hat perched at a
rakish angle on her head. She marched proudly and full of excitement in
the P-rade back then. I continue to be haunted by that memory. I know I
165 will feel her presence and will have a few aches in my heart when the 45th
reunion class lines up for the P-rade in a few months.
I’m blessed with Ilia, my wife of 38 years, whom I love more and more
each day, and with 29-year-old San Francisco-born-and-based son Justin,
who has a huge heart and the charm and grace to go with it. I find it very
energizing to be still working. It’s a gift. It gives me a focus, a sense of
purpose, fulfillment, and achievement in my daily life. I’m the senior citizen in the office and am probably viewed by many of my colleagues as an
antique even though I don’t feel like one and hope that I don’t act like one!
I have no plans to retire as long as I continue to enjoy my work as much as
I do now and continue to be productive.
My volunteer work with nonprofits here in S.F. has been very fulfilling
and rewarding. Over the years I’ve served as board member or board chair
of a variety of nonprofits like the Boy Scouts, our local church, an Italian
language school (Ilia’s!), pre-schools, a youth guidance organization, and
Parents of Murdered Children. These organizations have provided for me a
rich tapestry of life for which I am personally very grateful.
If I find the P-rade in May as sustaining as I think it will be, God willing and if the creek doesn’t rise, I’ll be back for our 50th in 2016!

I have had my eyes checked, and rechecked. I have even put a new
mirror in the bathroom. Yet, I still see this wizened old coot staring back at
me every morning. I just do not understand how this happened! And, given
my lack of short-term memory, I am
startled anew every morning.
There are things I never do forget.
Without question, I have been blessed
with good fortune beyond reasonable
measure. For the past half century,
I have enjoyed good health, a warm
and loving and supportive family,
treasured friends, and the opportunity
to collaborate with gifted people in
pursuing their dreams to create new
enterprises.
Now, I treat each day as a new gift,
to be enjoyed to the full. It is fun to
make up for all those golf rounds I
missed due to work and weather, still
chasing that elusive 10th hole-in-one. Chuck Soponis laying low in the Everglades.
Gauylin, a law professor, affords me this luxury as she continues to work
at improving the minds and work product of future lawyers. She continues
to be my greatest joy. I revel as a proud father watching my boys struggle
with life decisions and pursue their dreams.
I am immensely proud and grateful to be a Princetonian and an active
participant in the Princeton family. Reunions are such a special time to
savor and reflect on and renew our bonds to this great institution. I hope to
see you there.

After leaving Newsweek in the mid-90s (Bosnia
was my last war), I tried being a tennis bum at a
suburban Paris club with wonderful clay courts that
only the French know how to maintain. Lacking talent, I turned to writing humorous but argumentative books in French, for
the French public. The third one, with the hard-to-translate-into-English
title of Sacrés Français! (roughly, How About Those French!), stayed on
168 the best-seller lists for half a year in 2003. And so six more in the same
vein followed, the most recent being Sacrées Vacances!, devoted to the
idea that the French take too much time off work. Not bad, I thought,
for somebody who got gentleman C’s in French 101 and 102. I thought
I had found a second career — until I got the French tax bill. Plus, I had
become what journalists respect the least but need the most — a creature
of (French) radio and TV, somebody the media can depend on for a sound
bite. A quick-quote artist. Ugh. Then my second wife had a son in 2008,
and we decided to raise the boy like an authentic American and settled in
Princeton, where we moved in late 2010. Alas, I have yet to encounter an
authentic American in Princeton, but too late now.

172 young sons, Blake and Thacher — as most of us know well, grandchildren
are a tonic for everything. Kim still lives in N.Y.C. and still works for J.
Crew — she has a wonderful significant other (Kevin Spagnoli). Our son,
John, works for Studley, Inc. (a commercial real-estate firm) and lives in
Philadelphia — he also has a real keeper as a significant other (MaryKris
Greco). Family gatherings are one of the highlights of our lives — more so
with the two “ankle-biters.” Carol is in her 24th year in real estate — she
is still doing well, as I always thought she would (in spite of the recession). As expected, she is still the “glue” of the family.
For the past eight years I have been running a wonderful nonprofit —
Baker Industries (www.bakerindustries.org). We are a 31-year-old 501(c)
(3) nonprofit workforce development program employing and finding outside employment for the disabled, recovering substance abusers, parolees,
and the homeless. Over the past 18 years an average of 62 of our employees have joined the regular work force each year — individuals who have
ceased being a drain on society and are now contributors to society. It is a
unique organization in that we blend these four different elements of our
vulnerable adult population in a work-training program, but also because
we do it without accepting any government support. It is extremely gratifying and I truly enjoy what I do.
Our Princeton friendships are amazing and still seem to expand each
year. We love going to our “Minis.” I am an honorary member of my
Dad’s class (1941) — I have always felt they (’41) were somewhat immortal and it is very sad to see them slipping away at a fairly rapid pace. My
father passed away in June 1978 and I started a scholarship at Princeton
in his memory. It now provides three or four scholarships each year. This
year there are four recipients and I know them all — which is a real treat.
We are looking forward to a fantastic 45th. One of the many advantages
of being involved in reunions is the bond we create with the undergraduate
crewmembers — a bond that seems to grow over the years.
We hope to see you in May!

Looking back on the 20 years that have
passed since our 25th reunion, I see these
main highlights of my life:
First, Susan and I adopted two more
children in addition to Lonnie: Sarah (now
13) and Christopher (14). Both are potential
Princetonians.
Susan and I separated and eventually
divorced, and she has since remarried, to a
gentleman named Carl Kester. Susan and I
remain friends, however, and over the years
we have remained committed to raising the
children together.
I continue to practice law, though my
practice has its ups and downs — mostly
Lonnie, Sarah, and Christopher Tice.
downs, recently, because health concerns
have reduced the amount of referrals I receive from other attorneys, the
traditional source of most of my business.
A few years ago I put aside any thoughts of further songwriting and
have instead concentrated on writing a novel, Temple of Mercy. The setting is largely the Shriner’s Hospital in Tampa, where Lonnie was a patient
for many years. I am immensely enjoying the task of writing the book.
Can’t wait to introduce my classmates to my children!

I used to be amused by retired friends saying they were so busy they
couldn’t imagine how they ever had time to work. I now find myself one
of them.
I retired in 2009 from Pepco Holdings, Inc., a utility holding company
where I had worked since the early 1980s. My last job there was vice
chairman and chief legal officer.
Since retiring, Maureen (my wife for going on 43 years) and I have
been throwing stuff away, knocking off a long list of deferred projects
around the house, refitting a cruising sailboat, and sorting out where to
spend our time between Annapolis, said boat, and a condominium in Utah.
In the “keeping oneself out of Maureen’s hair” category, prior to
retirement I signed up for several charitable and social organization
responsibilities, the most time-consuming of which has been serving as
commodore of the Annapolis Yacht Club. That will last until the end of
this year, after which Maureen and I have our sights set on cruising in
the Caribbean for a while.
Our son, John, and his wife, Kate, live nearby in Annapolis, and the
three of us enjoy racing an Etchells sloop around the Annapolis area.
I thought I would be playing a lot of golf, but there just hasn’t been time.

Writing an essay for our 45th Reunion feels like popping a cork for
making the playoffs. It may
be appropriate, but isn’t
it somewhat premature?
Shouldn’t we save the champagne for winning the title or,
in our case, for making it to
the Big 5-0?
But as I reflect on the
years since the our 40th, I
realize that my life has been
Henry Von Kohorn with grandson Emerson, August 2010.
in a transition that is worth
178 examining. Five years ago, I had one parent; today, none. Five years ago, I
had no grandchildren; today, two. Five years ago, I had an office to go to;
today, I work from my home — and not all that hard. Five years ago, we
were comfortably settled in our Westport, Connecticut, home. Today, we
are planning our first move in 32 years — to Princeton, no less. What we
think of as a stable time of life has really not been that stable at all.
On the plus side, Meredith and I (our 40th anniversary is next February) are in good health, but
we both have had serious
operations recently. On the
other hand, dementia seems
right around the corner. How
many of you registered for
our 45th reunion twice? Raise
your hand, Henry. They send a
notice, I write a check. Thank
you Turk for not cashing the Henry and Meredith on a Princeton alumni trip to Egypt.
second one.
Other than our move to Princeton, which has been all-consuming,
we’ve pretty much taken our foot off the accelerator. This is a pleasant
stage of life if you’re in reasonably good health and have some resources.
Our children, Isabelle and Emily, make us proud every day. Our grandsons, Emerson and Arlo, could not be sweeter. Like all of us, I worry about
the country they are growing up in — whether it is equipped to address the
myriad critical issues we face. I worry about a world where a single contagion — biological, financial, or political — can spread with breathtaking
speed and affect us all.
I am lucky to have a number of interests — Princeton being foremost
among them — that keep my head in the game. My knees and hips still
allow me to play squash three or four times a week. I take our Labrador
retriever, Babe, for a two-mile walk every morning. We travel some and
love to go to New York to see the occasional show or cabaret performance.
We eagerly look forward to the stimulation of living life in a university
community — especially “our” university community.
To use Jim Parmentier’s formulation, “’66 is 66” — in my case, 67 by
Reunions. The actuaries tell us that by the time we reach 80, roughly half
of us will be gone. According to our memorialist, Norm Tabler, almost 10
percent already are. In that sobering context, things seem pretty good, and
for the first time in my life perhaps, I have come to fully appreciate our
continuing good fortune. See you at the Big 4-5!

I have been practicing ophthalmology in Nashville since 1976 and have
no plans to retire anytime soon. Twink and I celebrated our 40th anniversary on an Alaskan cruise in August 2010. I had a fly-fishing trip to Patagonia in January 2010 with a few days extra in Buenos Aires. Since we
have a daughter and grandchildren in London we are able to cross the big
pond a few times a year. We have a son and daughter and three grandchildren. We are enjoying travel and still enjoying each other after all these
years. Our health is good as is our general outlook on life. I am happy in
my chosen profession and have never regretted being a doctor. My son and
his wife are both architects in Portland, Oregon. My daughter is a Wharton
M.B.A., as is her husband. She is an executive with International SOS and
181 has a fascinating job with a lot of world travel. Her husband, Mike Burns,
is an executive vice president with Pimco and is in the London office at
present. This is all for now.

182 I’m afraid I’ve not been very active in P.U. reunion activities, although
I do attend an occasional event of the Northern California Princeton Club.
My excuses include living on the
wrong coast and the fact that for
decades Princeton’s reunion dates
coincided with Vassar’s. Since my
wife is Vassar ’66, the conflict was
traditionally resolved by not going
to either reunion (and we’re still
married, since 1967).
I send greetings to my classmates at the 45th reunion and
certainly treasure the years that I
spent at Princeton as some of the
best of the many good years I’ve
Jeffrey and Carol Weiss at their daughter Erika’s
been fortunate to have.
I’m in reasonably good shape wedding, July 2007, Solana Beach, California.
and still enjoy doing R&D in applied physics, which I hope to do for a
while longer. I wish everyone good health and happiness. One of these
years, we’ll make it back.

Emily and I are approaching a new phase with daughter Rebecca and
her husband, Jason, expecting our first grandchild in April! I completed a
challenging re-design of their house in Ballard two years ago and they are
currently in a major “nesting” panic, completing all the finish painting and
other details.
We are finally planning to escape Seattle’s waterlogged winters for
more than a few weeks and stay at our North Palm Beach condo for three
months this year. I’ve just now retired and Emily is winding down enough
of her teaching duties and research to telecommute.
We’ve taken up kayak sailing — a geriatric form of windsurfing —
which we practice with delight in a 22-foot outriggered tandem in Florida
and two singles in the Northwest. Later this year I plan on converting a
184 Honda Odyssey into the ultimate gourmet tail-gater with a built-in icebox,
shower with hot and cold running water accessible under the hatch, and
a full-size bed forward. We will still continue to tent-camp safari-style
in places like Ashland, Oregon, but need something that works for short
stays, remote sites, and in the wet off-season. The typical aches and pains
plague us but not enough yet for us to give up on secular animism and
embrace Buddhism. As the wise old Rabbi said, “If there is no self, then
whose arthritis is this?”

As the 45th rapidly approaches, I am a most lucky man.
I recently celebrated my 38th anniversary with my wonderful wife, Sally,
a family therapist who has expanded her practice to include loving work for
a Sloan-Kettering program offering therapy to families dealing with familymember cancer. I’m enormously grateful that both Sally and I — and all of
the members of our immediate family — have thus far been spared the kind
of health misfortune that she now encounters professionally.
Yesterday, I met my oldest son at Newark airport upon his return from
two weeks in Cairo’s Tahrir Square reporting on the harrowing events
there for The Washington Post. Griff (P.U. ’00 and married to a classmate,
teacher/writer Emily Bliss) has regularly put himself at physical risk
covering Afghanistan, Pakistan, and the Israel-Gaza war. Now the Post’s
187 deputy foreign editor, he has been associated with two Pulitzer Prizes as
writer and editor. I’m proud of his talent and grateful for his safety.
Since the 40th, middle son Spencer spent two years studying Arabic
in Syria (including a month in Beirut reporting on the harrowing war
between Israel and Lebanon), followed by two years at Oxford getting a
master’s degree in Arabic and international relations. To my considerable
relief, he has chosen at the moment to forego potentially hazardous foreign
interests to pursue a lifelong fascination with baseball as cofounder, with
his father, of the game-changing firm Classic Baseball Consultants.
Our youngest son, Drew, graduated from Emerson College in 2009
and works part-time in Manhattan while pursuing his multiple creative
interests as a rap artist, musician, filmmaker, actor, stand-up comedian,
cartoonist, and writer. As his father can personally testify, it’s a struggle to
get started in creative fields, but I have full confidence in both his talent
and perseverance. Again to my considerable relief, he has shown little
interest in the politics of South Asia or the Middle East.
I keep hanging in there. Cartooning is still my principal profession,
although the magazine/newspaper industry is in serious decline, as is the
volume of my drawings. I fill the spare time with the above-mentioned
consulting firm, after five years as a pitching consultant for the St. Louis
Cardinals. Classic Baseball Consultants has identified the common mechanical secrets of historic ballplayers and aspires to redefine the conventional theories of pitching and hitting, thereby reducing pitching injury and
eliminating the need for performance-enhancing drugs.
At age 67, I have no plans to retire. I’m a most lucky (and grateful)
man — waiting for the other shoe to fall but hopeful that it takes its time
(knock on wood).
P.S. I’m still at work on my book about the secret of golf but will
relentlessly share that secret with anyone at Reunions who dares to show
interest!

By Ted Bent
Ted and Rebecca Bent opened their home for two months to a Pakistani
amputee and her father. It was a learning experience for all of them.
Editor’s note: Ted Bent is the business manager of the Canterbury School,
in Washington, Connecticut. The website TheMuslimQuestion.com is
fictitious and used here as a literary conceit. The events described occurred
in December 2006–January 2007. This article originally appeared in the
Winter 2007 issue of Pallium, the magazine of the Canterbury School, and
is reprinted by permission.
Q: Why did you set up this website?
A: People have asked about our family’s experience as a Healing the
Children host family caring for a 6 1/2-year-old Pakistani amputee for two
months while she had a prosthesis fabricated at the Shriners Hospital in
nearby Springfield, Connecticut, so we put up the site to respond to some
of the more frequently asked questions.
Q: Was hosting this Pakistani child so difficult?
A: No, Insha was an exceptionally appealing kid — breathtakingly upbeat,
in fact, for a girl who lost a leg at the hip to a falling wall and ensuing
gangrene in the Kashmir earthquake of October 2005 and who has lived
in a tent camp there with her
parents and two younger siblings
ever since.
LITCHFIELD COUNTY TIMES
Q: Then what was the problem?
A: There was no problem —
except Insha and her father Afsar
didn’t speak any English and we
didn’t speak their Urdu, never
mind they wouldn’t even look at
our food, nor we at theirs. But
what really took us aback was
that they were so disgusted by
our dogs.

at the tent camp in Kashmir where
her family lived following an
earthquake in 2005.
211 Q: How many dogs do you have?
A: We have three Labs: a dumb Chocolate, a lethargic Black, and a smart
Yellow, who are an integral part of our family and rural life, along with the
three hundred cows on the farm across the road.
Q: Did these dogs threaten Insha or her father?
A: Only by licking, but it turns out Muslims can’t stand dogs.
Q: Insha and her father were Muslims?
A: Yes, and Pakistani Muslims think dogs are filthy, despicable creatures,
a notch below pigs on the social scale. When one of the dog’s tails brushed
Insha, she freaked and had to wash and change her clothes. So we had to
lock the dogs out for two months.
Q: Was that so bad?
A: It was cold outdoors and the dogs weren’t used to it, but that was just
the tip of the iceberg.
Q: What was the rest of the iceberg?
A: The Bents just hadn’t thought about what it would mean to have Muslims in the house. Although the Sunni and the Shia have been the world’s
lead story since 9/11 and the insurgencies in Iraq, the Bents had never distinguished one Muslim from another. And now they were in the bedroom
downstairs, sending loud Muslim snores up through the floor, praying five
times a day, and Insha was hopping around the house on one leg.
Q: Didn’t Insha have crutches?
A: Yes, but she only used them outside. In the house she hopped — as fast
as any other kid can run. The first time the Bents saw her do it, they were
stunned. Insha has an athlete’s gift of coordination.
Q: And she prayed five times a day?
A: No, just her father. He was devout, she wasn’t. Muslim girls seem to have
few religious inhibitions until they reach puberty. That’s when the Islamic
portcullis inhibiting devout Muslim women notoriously comes down.
Q: How did Rebecca get along with Insha?
A: Famously, perhaps because Rebecca’s father is an Iranian who left his
Islamic faith behind when he came to America, or perhaps because they
just both fell in love. As soon as Rebecca heard Insha’s foot hit the floor
at dawn, she would race to meet the girl and they would undertake a joint
ritual of morning ablutions. It was Ted who lay in bed, wide-eyed, listening to Afsar’s bearded snores, feeling pressed to make sense of it all.
Q: What was so difficult to understand?
A: The global picture. Afsar had gotten off their 26-hour flight unpredictably wearing a pea-green soccer jersey and carrying all their luggage in a
single small shoulder bag, while Insha gamely swung along in his wake
212 on a mismatched pair of cut-down elbow crutches meant for an adult three
times her size.
Q: So?
A: So they had come from an unimaginably remote Islamic city in the
foothills of the Himalayas where tens of thousands had been maimed and
killed in the collapse of 300-year-old stone buildings, where there had
been no accessible medical aid, and where survivors then faced winter
with no homes.
Q: But didn’t the international community respond to the crisis by bringing in tents and setting up camps?
A: Yes, not unlike the Taliban camps in the Pakistani tribal regions a few
hundred miles to the west where Al Qaeda trains its fighters and where
Osama bin Laden still hides out.
Q: What was so complicated? Wasn’t Insha just the
lucky girl among tens of thousands who — thanks
to the serendipity of her photo appearing in Time
in April ’06 and attracting a Shriner’s attention
— was getting a prosthesis from one of the best
charitable pediatric hospitals in the world?
A: That’s what Rebecca understood, but Ted just
couldn’t get it. For one thing, Christmas was coming and — at the least — the Bents typically decorate a tree, Rebecca sets up two or three crèches,
Rebecca Bent and Insha.
and Ted dutifully lights all four Advent candles
anticipating the birth of Jesus. So he decided that
foregoing some of this paraphernalia of Christmas would be one way to
reduce the stress of the Muslims’ visit — an idea, of course, which Rebecca promptly discounted out of hand.
Q: Did Ted feel his Christian faith was being threatened?
A: No, his experience was more tangible than that. Healing the Children had
not just slipped the great religious/political crisis of the 21st century into the
bedroom downstairs like a Trojan Horse, but it quickly became clear that our
guests expected breakfast, lunch, and dinner to be served to them.
Q: What do you mean?
213 LITCHFIELD COUNTY TIMES
Q: Did the Bents think Afsar was a Taliban?
A: Rebecca didn’t focus on the geography and
wasn’t worried, but Ted couldn’t parse the tension
he felt at the sudden compression of the “global
village” into the single room downstairs. The Bents
may have a too-big house, but it wasn’t big enough
to contain all these complexities.
A: Well, through their 20-odd years of a modern marriage, Rebecca and
Ted had satisfactorily negotiated their share of the kitchen chores, but selfrespecting Pakistani men do not typically cook or clean for themselves or
even for their disabled children — whatever inconveniences earthquakes
and amputations may present.
Q: That’s a Muslim thing as well?
A: Not necessarily of the faith, but the women in Pakistan keep their counsel and do all the domestic work, which left Afsar sitting expectantly at the
kitchen table with Insha right beside him.
Q: So how did Rebecca and Ted adjust to this apparent affront?
A: They didn’t as much as Afsar fortunately did, thanks to the critical
intervention of the immigrant Pakistani community in the nearby city of
Waterbury which showed him — and Ted and Rebecca — the way.
Q: What did these Pakistanis do?
A: Speaking Urdu on the phone, they told Afsar that he simply had to do
the dishes and clean up or else there would be no meals. So he willingly
did, and equity and peace were restored overnight.
Q: How had the Bents connected with these Waterbury Pakistanis?
A: Healing the Children’s Christina Geary had gone online and found a
local bilingual Pakistani college student, Sohair Mahmood, to help with
English/Urdu translation, and then Sohair’s mother, Amti Omar, had taken
the hapless Bents to an halal market tucked away in a rundown Waterbury
mall where they found the meat and rice that Insha and Afsar would eat.
Q: So then the Bents were able to buy what they needed?
A: No, they were given what they needed — that first week and every
week following — already cooked in great flat aluminum trays prepared
by Bano, the round-faced, hijab-covered shopkeeper who instinctively saw
Insha for the vulnerable Pakistani girl she was, even as she presided over
her shoe-string retail operation with a firm hand and without complaint. It
was her extraordinary generosity — and that of her muscular, soft-hearted
son who pulled a $20 bill from their nearly empty cash register to give to
Insha — that cracked open the smug delusion of Ted’s Yankee self-sufficiency, blinding him with tears as he stumbled after Insha on her crutches
leaving the store.
Q: What was Ted crying about?
A: What wasn’t there to cry about? He didn’t know if it was the impoverishment of his own spirit or the manifest generosity of these Pakistanis
that was wringing the blood from his atrophied Connecticut heart and
forcing him to gasp for breath.
Q: But isn’t Ted’s Yankee self-reliance the very backbone of America and
214 at the core of our country’s great contribution to the global process?
A: If you ask a Yankee, yes. But Ted found the generosity of these closely
knit Waterbury Muslims was so personal, spontaneous, and abundant that
it trumped anything he had ever known among the most charitable of his
fellow New Englanders.
Q: And never mind the Al Qaeda fighters with their Islamic declarations of
hate and intent to destroy the infidels?
A: From the perspective of Waterbury, the merciless indignation of the Al
Qaeda fringe has more to do with the politics, poverty, and injustices of
the contemporary world than with Islam.
Q: How does anyone figure that?
A: It’s what Ted learned reading the crib sheets and crash course in comparative religion fed to him by Marija Stankus-Saulaitis, Canterbury’s
Lithuanian faculty member with her own strict Catholic ethic and a Master’s in Islamic Studies.
Q: What did she tell him?
A: She suggested rereading the stories of Abraham, and to relax.
Q: How can anyone relax reading Abraham? Isn’t he the one who God told
to slit his own son Isaac’s throat, and who was willing?
A: Yes, and he was also the first to identify the non-idolatrous God, and so
the monotheistic Big Three all claim him as their patriarch.
Q: What Big Three?
A: Judaism, Christianity, and Islam, depending how Abraham’s God is
proclaimed and welcomed.
Q: Aren’t you oversimplifying the greatest issues of contemporary theology?
A: Maybe not.
Q: Then you must be trivializing the Islamic Jihad as just an Abrahamic
family squabble?
A: Ted certainly wondered about that — and also whether there would be
time for a stop at COSTCO — when he drove Afsar to Friday services at
Waterbury’s United Muslim Mosque, which turned out to be a two-story,
nondescript commercial building in a largely residential neighborhood
on the edge of downtown. When Ted followed Afsar into the makeshift,
carpeted space and sat in his socks alone against the back wall watching
the eclectic assortment of men at their prayers, there seemed far less threat
in the air than meets the voracious media eye. These men turning toward
Mecca appeared more worried about their souls and the holes in their
socks than any Jihad.
Q: So there were no women in the room?
A: No, but Ted had seen them outside, coming and going with assorted
215 children, many wrapped in the beautiful silks of the lower continent. He
could also see them now through an open central corridor gathered in a
separate hall, gossiping or praying, he couldn’t tell which.
Q: And this segregation didn’t seem to him like a sexist anachronism?
A: On the contrary; it felt to Ted like a welcome lull in the fractious gender storms of daily American life.
Q: But won’t being set apart be an added problem for Insha back in Pakistan as she grows up? How can a one-legged girl hope to compare favorably among the rest of the female chattel in her country, which is already
widely recognized as one of the least supportive of women on the planet?
A: It’s a real problem. Listening to the warnings of the Waterbury Pakistanis, men and women alike, Rebecca and Ted had learned that Insha’s
destiny back home will be a crushing challenge at best, and they both
wondered how to offer her some alternative to the burkha that may await
her like another catastrophic earthquake in her beloved Muzaffarabad.
Q: Did the Bents have any ideas?
A: Sure, everything from adoption to a scholarship at Canterbury, but neither Rebecca nor Ted have been able to speak to Insha’s mother, nor been
able to establish any reliable contact with anyone else in her family since
she returned. There have been a few chaotically loud cell phone calls in
which they have each clearly heard Insha’s cheerful “Hello,” but no communication or exchange of information. In Insha’s displaced-persons camp
there is no mail, no Internet access, no phone lines, and no identifiable
agency or person — never mind English-speaking — in charge.
Q: Then how will the Bents ever see her again?
A: As she grows, she will need to have her prosthesis adjusted, and that
will require periodic trips to the Shriners Hospital in Springfield. If Rebecca and Ted can facilitate those trips, then she’ll visit with them again
and surely snuggle on the couch with Rebecca to watch Free Willy and
Cinderella, her two favorite videos among the dozens she and Rebecca
brought home from the library.
Q: Why those two?
A: Probably because both are about beating life’s daunting odds. Rebecca
can picture Insha, like Cinderella, dancing at a ball when she grows up.
But for Ted, it was watching Insha amuse herself playing with the crèche
figures as if they were dolls that arrested his attention.
Q: Why?
A: The irony of this little Muslim girl casually arranging and re-arranging
the Holy Family’s manager scene pulled him up short. He had simply never imagined the crèche tableau could be reinterpreted with such impunity.
216 Q: Was there anything blasphemous in Insha’s doll house play?
A: Not if we are all truly cousins in the family of Abraham.
Q: And if were not?
A: Insha would have us be. She cast Rebecca as Mary, the blessed mother;
herself as a transgendered baby Jesus; and Ted as Joseph, God’s perpetually bewildered eunuch but, as Insha had come to trust, the faithful master
of his dogs.
Ted Bent’s Postscript:
Insha, having quickly outgrown her prosthesis, returned with her father
for a second visit in the fall of 2007 to be fitted for a longer prosthesis. She
got her new leg, but Rebecca and Insha’s father, still not speaking each
other’s languages, nonetheless came to loggerheads, and when they left
Rebecca told him he was not welcome to come back. So, since Muslim
girls don’t typically travel alone, we didn’t expect to see Insha again.
But the following November of 2008, an English-speaking uncle of
Insha’s got in touch to tell us her prosthesis had broken and ask if she
could come alone. She got off the plane from Islamabad the following
March of 2009. While her prosthesis was being rebuilt, we put her into the
grammar school where our now-grown son had gone, almost as a lark and
distraction. But she loved it, the school loved her, and we found ourselves
committing to educating her indefinitely in America, while she insisted she
needed to return summers to visit her family in Pakistan.
A lot of bureaucratic trouble ensued getting her a student visa, but that
finally came through in December of 2009, and in January of 2010 she began school in earnest, returned to Pakistan in the summer, and then came
back in the fall of 2010 for the fifth grade and her first full academic year,
which we’re in the midst of now.
Meanwhile, Insha has become perhaps the best 10-year-old, one-legged
skier in New England, now spends her own money on treats for our dogs,
which we eschew, loves her iTouch, and has become as impertinent as any
spoiled American girl. n

217 Tractors and the Farmers
Who Love Them
By Gary Mount
M
y father once told me that he had asked my grandfather, whose farm
was on Route 1 in West Windsor, New Jersey, what he and his farmer
friends talked about when they stood together at different gatherings.
“Horses and women” was his answer. I always wanted to ask whether, in
my father’s day, it was “tractors and women.”
One of the enduring themes of farm life is the farmer’s relationship
with his horses and his tractors. One of my uncles sketched out a map of
my grandfather’s farm as it looked between 1900 and 1910. It shows the
horse barn and lists all of the horses he could remember by name — Tom,
Dan, Jumbo, Dick, Pansy, Ned, Charlie, Lester, Stewart, John Bonehead,
and Jenny. They did the plowing, planting, cultivating, haying, harvesting,
hauling, and transporting people. Horses were even used to pull ropes that
hoisted hay into the top of the barns or to power different pieces of stationary equipment. Horses were very important on the farm, and it took quite a
number of them to do all of the work.
In 1916, my grandfather William M. Mount bought his first tractor, an
Avery Model 8-16. The number 8 meant that the tractor was able to exert
the same pull as eight horses, i.e., eight horsepower. The larger number
was the power of the engine. Almost half of its power was lost in the
transmission and gears! Gears were shifted by a hand lever that moved
the entire engine assembly forward and back to engage the correct gear
combinations. The tractor was powered by kerosene and used gasoline to
start it. In addition to the two fuel tanks, a third tank held water, which was
added in small amounts to suppress combustion knocking (pinging) of the
kerosene and to add power.
In short order, my grandfather bought two more Avery tractors, a 6-12
and a 12-25. He liked them so much he became an Avery Tractor dealer.
His four sons, including my father, had the job of delivering them. The
steel-wheeled behemoths were simply driven along the road to their destination. No driver’s license was needed in those days. They had to return to
the farm by shanks-mare (an old saying meaning “on foot”).
The first tractors were large and heavy, difficult to maneuver, and had
cleated steel wheels that jarred the operator down to his bones. However,
everything considered, farmers liked them more than horses. In addition
to more pulling power, each tractor had a powered pulley that could drive
a flat belt. The belt was attached to a piece of machinery like a thresher or
a circular saw. I have actually used one of these saws, powered by a belt

from one of my father’s tractors. Luckily, I survived the experience with
all limbs intact.
As the use of tractors on farms increased, they became more powerful,
easier to use, and began to come with rubber tires. One of my uncles and
my father argued about whether steel or rubber would pull better. To settle
the matter, they hooked two tractors back-to-back. It was a dead heat.
They just sat there and dug holes in the ground. I don’t think my grandfather was too pleased.
Along with the coming of rubber tires came the demise of the Avery
Company. My grandfather switched to Case tractors, still retaining the
same delivery staff. When I grew up, there was only one tractor to have on
the farm — Case. However, when I was ten, my father bought a Ferguson.
It was quite a radical step, even though the Ferguson had several features
that made it more suitable for some farm jobs than the Case.
It might seem strange that a better machine would be so radical, but
just as with their horses, farmers are particular about their tractors. Even
today, many rural towns divide their farmers according to the equipment
they use. People are identified by their brand of tractor. “He’s a John
Deere man.” Or, “He’s a Case man.” Part of the identity is the paint color.
“They’re all green (John Deere) over there,” is a comment I heard only
last week.
Another part of the identity is passion. No farmer who believes in his
tractors is lukewarm about them. Several years ago, I traveled to Biglerville, Pennsylvania, to look at a new sprayer for my orchards. The dealer
took me to see a particular model on someone’s farm. When I asked the
farmer how he liked the sprayer, I was sternly told that it “worked good,
but only if you have something green (John Deere) to put in front of it.”
It wasn’t at all clear whether this farmer would even let me look at the
219 sprayer if I wasn’t going to pull it with a John Deere. Red (Case or International), orange (Allis Chalmers), or blue (Ford) just wouldn’t do.
So, you really can’t separate farmers and their tractors. Actually, for
any self-respecting farmer, it is a case of the more the better. (This truism
doesn’t usually apply to the farmer’s spouse.) One year before Thanksgiving dinner at our house, my younger brother Tim walked around the
farmstead, sort of looking things over. At dinner (keep in mind, this is my
own brother), between mouthfuls of turkey, he asked, “Gary, why do you
need 13 tractors?” The dead silence that followed was broken by Pam’s
question, “We — have — 13 — tractors?” That’s why farmers never, ever
park all of their tractors in a row: too easy to count.
As I write this, I am thinking about getting a new tractor. It is something I desperately need. The more, the better! Or as my two-year-old
grandson, Becket, said recently, “I need more tractors every day.”

220 Three Men Out
Fantasy baseball camp with the Mick and Enos Slaughter
By Henry Von Kohorn
L
“
ive your fantasy. Be a big-league ballplayer for a week.” So goes the
brochure for the Mickey Mantle-Whitey Ford Fantasy Baseball Camp.
In 1992, in an uncharacteristic surge of togetherness, three Von Kohorn
brothers — Ken, Jeff, and I — decided to enroll for a week of bonhomie at
the New York Yankee spring training facility in Fort Lauderdale, Florida.
The camp, held at the beginning of November, brought together 84 male
menopausers, whose linkage was a love of pinstripes and an uncommon
devotion to Mickey Mantle.
The opening cocktail party is held Sunday night at our hotel-the posh,
though somewhat nouveau, Palm-Aire Resort. Booze and beer flow (Is this
how the real big-leaguers train?), and scatological humor is the order of
the evening. Together with Mantle and Ford, other camp staffers include
such legendary Yankees as Hank Bauer, Bill Skowron, Enos Slaughter,
Johnny Blanchard, and Jake Gibbs. The ex-Yankees are master storytellers and regale us with stories that seem as fresh as if the events had
occurred that morning.
Prior to coming to camp, we had been advised to bring with us at least
a dozen official American League baseballs to be signed by the Yankee
luminaries. In addition, many of us brought with us all manner of old
programs, uniforms, hats, magazines, baseball cards, and photographs
in hopes that a member of the camp staff would favor us with an autograph. At the cocktail party, however, we were darkly informed, “No
autographs.” It later turned out that most of the ex-Yankees were more
than willing to sign anything shoved in front of them. Mickey and Whitey,
however, were a different story. We were specifically warned that “Mickey
Mantle doesn’t sign bats.” As we learned through the week, getting any
kind of autograph from the Mick could be hazardous to your health. What
was I going to do with a dozen official American League balls?
Day One — Monday: We arrive at the ballpark. The locker room has
cubicles with our names prominently displayed above each and our genuine Yankee pinstripes hanging spotlessly within. After suiting up, checking
the mirror, and taking pictures of one another, we head out to our field of
dreams to meet the head counselor, Mike Ferraro. Mike’s principal claim
to immortality is that as third-coach for the Yankees at a crucial moment
in the World Series, he ill-advisedly sent a runner home. The runner was
nailed at the plate, the Yankees lost the game, and Ferraro was summarily
dismissed by George Steinbrenner.
221 Mike tells the assembled ballplayers, “Gentlemen, this is as good as
you’re going to feel all week.” We are told that we will be playing two full
games each day. The camp supplies pitchers and catchers. We play all the
other positions, and we get to play with four outfielders. At the end of the
week, the team with the best record will get trophies. He goes on to tell us
to take it easy and not to run everything out or slide into bases because,
in the past, campers who have extended themselves don’t last through
Wednesday. Finally, no bunting is allowed and “the hit sign is always on.”
“We’re here to have fun, fellas.”
Ken, Jeff and I are assigned to the same ball club managed by Enos
“Country” Slaughter, a 76-year-old pepper pot whose competitive juices
haven’t begun to evaporate and who still lives on the same North Carolina
farm on which he was raised. Enos is a veteran of the old St. Louis Gas
House Gang and fits in with modern ballplayers about as well as a Sopwith
Camel would with NASA. Slaughter says, “To hell with having fun, we’re
here to win.”
Batting practice clearly demonstrates that none of the Von Kohorns is
a home-run threat. Line drives up the middle become our goal. But in the
field we look great. I line up at third base, Ken at second, and Jeff, seeking
a low profile, is in right.
Our first game is against the team managed by Jake Gibbs. It is clear
from the beginning that we have good hitters but a leaky defense. The
first pop-up hit to me is high and comes down like a banana. Naturally, I
muff it and Slaughter yells, “Put some grass in your hat.” This I translate
to mean, “If another pop-up is hit in your direction, you may want some
cushioning in the likely event that the ball hits you on your head.”
Ken inadvertently plays in the field with his batting glove on his throwing hand and attributes a couple of errant throws to this oversight. Jeff
pulls a muscle running out a grounder. Fortunately for our team, both Ken
and I share our position with other teammates — alternating innings. Our
left fielder, Howard, from Mississippi, actually homers to right. The Von
Kohorn brothers eke out a couple of hits, including a triple to right center
by yours truly, and somehow we go on to win 10-3.
Between games, we head to the clubhouse, where a real big-league
“spread” is available for lunch. Dining on roast beef, cole slaw, and rice
pudding while dodging 80 sweaty, dirt-covered bodies is an experience to
be savored. I notice one fellow camper on crutches with his foot in a cast.
Could this be our first casualty? It turns out that he broke his foot three
weeks before camp, but there was no way he was going to miss living
his fantasy. For the entire week, he employs a pinch runner and gamely
hobbles around right field.
On Monday afternoon, we beat Johnny Blanchard’s team 14-11 with a
rally in the top of the ninth. I get a hit but manage to drop another popup at third. I also make an error on a bad throw. Well, at least I’ve gotten
222 through the first day. We’re
undefeated, and I’m healthy,
but as we leave the field I
hear my skipper in a stage
whisper saying to anyone
within earshot, “We cain’t
be missin’ no easy pop-ups.”
We see Mickey Mantle
in the clubhouse following
the game. He’s pulling on
a Miller Lite. It begins to
dawn on me that we have
yet to see the Mick without
his hand wrapped around
a beer or a highball. I’m
beginning to get the impression that Mickey’s bloodalcohol level has been above
the legal limit since he left
Oklahoma. That night, Ken,
Jeff, and I take in the Steven
Segal thriller, Under Siege,

three real big leaguers.
Day 2 — Tuesday: Part of the thrill of being a big-league ballplayer is
having big league trainers. Gene Monahan, the official Yankee trainer, is
in residence during our camp, and the line to the trainers room is already
perceptible.
Muscle pulls and blisters are the most common ailments, although
Gene claims to be able to replace teeth and do a heart transplant if necessary. His talents may be needed because one of our teammates, Larry, from
New York City, actually underwent a triple bypass within the past year.
This is the morning is for photo opportunities. Each of us jockeys for
position next to his favorite Yankee. Film is flying through cameras at
warp speed. As I shake hands with Slaughter, he says, “We cain’t be missin’ no easy pop-ups today.”
Game 1 — Mike Ferraro’s team scores two runs in the ninth to beat us
6-5. I go 0-3 and fail to charge a grounder, but at least nothing hits me on
the head. Ken begins to complain about sore quadriceps.
Game 2 — I miss another easy pop-up. Well, I didn’t think it was so
easy, but Slaughter did. I go 2-4 and am robbed on a long fly to dead
center. In the eighth inning, we’re holding on to a narrow lead against
Bill Skowron’s team. With the bases loaded and one out, an ersatz Cecil
223 Fielder smashes a hard-hit two-hopper to me at third. I drop to one knee,
field the ball cleanly, step on third and throw to first base — double play.
Bill Skowron, coaching third for the opposition, calls it a “back-breaker.”
We go on to win easily. Our record is 3 and 1. Unfortunately, I now have
a badly bruised knee from fielding the hard-hit grounder and somewhere
along the line have scraped my arm. Because we are the only brothers in
camp and because we are not exactly playing like the DiMaggios, we are
beginning to be known as the Three Stooges.
Tuesday evening is spent at the hotel for what is called B.S. Night.
(No autographs, please. What am I going to do with all my balls?) The
ex-Yankees are seated at a table with microphones, and we groupies get
to drink beer and ask them questions — such as “Mickey, who was the
toughest pitcher you ever faced?” Answer, “When you strike out 1,710
times, they’re all tough.” Think maybe he’s heard that one before? Mickey
allowed that his biggest nemesis was Dick “the Monster” Radatz of the
Boston Red Sox, who struck him out 44 times in 66 trips. Asked about
his biggest thrill in baseball, Mickey said it was going into the Hall of
Fame with Whitey. On the subject of Billy Martin, Mickey was eloquent.
“Billy was the only guy I ever met who could hear somebody give him the
finger.” Mickey tells us that the Yankees traded Billy because he was a bad
influence. At the time, Mickey was hitting .390 and the previous year he
had won the Triple Crown.
Each of the ex-Yankees could stay off food stamps strictly on their
abilities as after-dinner speakers. Country Slaughter remembers every one
of the eight thousand or so at-bats he had in the big leagues (his career
ended almost 40 years ago) and most of those in the minors as well. He
also remembers every salary negotiation. According to Enos, he never saw
a pitcher he couldn’t hit, and all the owners were cheapskates.
Day 3 — Wednesday: A tropical downpour hits Fort Lauderdale.
Moe, Larry, and Curley have left the top down on their rented LeBaron
convertible. Three inches of water is on the floor of the car and the seats
are soaked through. Fortunately, there’s room in the camp van to the
ballpark. The field is very slippery, but we play anyway. We lose 20-15
to Hank Bauer’s team. Defense is nonexistent. Because of the rain, no
one can stand up in the field. The infielders get no traction, and mud
begins to cover our uniforms. It’s funny if you’re watching, but not if
you’re playing.
After the game, the line at Gene Monahan’s door is at least an hour
long. Bruises, cramps, charlie horses, and strains may be attributable to
the bad field conditions, but most are the result of having played five more
baseball games in three days than most of us have played in 20 years.
Monahan explains to me while working on my charlie horse that baseball
running is different from, say, tennis or squash. He describes it as straight224 leg running vs. bent-knee running. In other words, even though you’re in
decent shape, you can still be out of shape for baseball.
After lunch, we are permitted to get two items autographed by Mickey
and Whitey. I’m down to ten balls.
That afternoon we play Blanchard’s team again and win. On my first
trip to the plate, Mickey Mantle, Jr., who helps out at the camp by catching, says to me, “Remember, this is the first inning of the rest of your life.”
Deep thought. I go 2-4 again. We are 4 and 2 and tied for first place with
two other teams. I begin to notice that we’re all starting to run like Walter
Brennan. Good news! I catch a high pop-up. So does Ken. Jeff remains
comatose in right field — a low-risk position.
We arrive back at the hotel and our car is still soaked. We decide to put
the top up for the night (something about barn doors and horses), and more
water (from where the top is stored) pours into the car. Sitting on towels
from our room, we drive to the movies and catch Mr. Baseball (what else?)
with Tom Selleck.
Day 4 — Thursday: I have just learned that one of our campers has attended over 60 fantasy camps, and I’m having trouble getting through the
week. While attendance at 60 camps is noteworthy (and expensive), the
most egregious example of wretched baseball excess is probably another
fellow camper who has attended the Mantle-Ford Camp numerous times.
Three years ago, he was remarried. The ceremony took place at home plate
in Fort Lauderdale. Mantle was Best Man. Each year, the happy couple
celebrates their anniversary at the Mantle-Ford Camp. Fealty to Mickey
apparently knows no bounds.
We beat Jake Gibbs’ team 7-3. Each of us looks as if he is running
in yogurt. Some hitters have pinch runners standing next to them in the
batter’s box who take off at the crack of the bat. I get a couple of hits —
grounders through the hole. (According to Slaughter, I “killed a lot of
snakes out there.”) It’s an ugly day in the field, and Jeff lets an easy one
go under his glove (right field is a low-risk — not a no-risk — position).
Ken comes up lame with sore quadriceps and blisters. Finally, the ultimate
insult. I am benched in the ninth inning because Enos is afraid that we
may blow a four-run lead. I am struck by the irony of having my rear end
chewed off by my skipper “Country” Slaughter and paying a small fortune
for the privilege. I am beginning to understand why Slaughter has run
through five wives (so far).
At lunch, we line up to get autographs from the Yankees. We are told
specifically that Whitey and Mickey will sign only two objects each and
nothing will be personalized. (Down to eight balls.)
In the afternoon, we manage to blow an 8-1 lead and lose to Ferraro’s
team, but at least it’s not my fault. I go 3-4, including a shot over the
center fielder’s head. Another great moment — as I am coming to the plate
225 after getting hits in my first three at bats I overhear someone on the other
team say, “Move back, he’s a good hitter.” Go ahead, make my week! Jeff
unfortunately drops an easy fly ball. As he returns to the bench, Slaughter says, “Lost it in the Moon, huh?” Ken has an ugly game at short. The
Three Stooges soubriquet seems to be sticking.
Thursday night is autograph night — four items each, and we can get
things personalized. Some innocent soul decides to bring a bat, not for
Mickey to sign, but for others. Wanda, the camp director, hides the bat
under the table, quaking in fear over what might happen if Mantle were to
catch sight of the bat. Mickey clearly has an attitude problem. One camper
asks him to re-sign a glove on which the existing signature was rather
faint. Mantle throws the glove back at him and tells him never to come
back to camp. Ken asks Mickey to sign their joint photo as follows — “To
Ken, a great money manager.” Mickey adds a question mark. Fortunately,
Ken is able to doctor the photo to his satisfaction. I am now down to four
balls and can see light at the end of the runway to the dugout.
Day 5 — Friday: I greet the morning in more pain than I have experienced since Basic Training. Gene Monahan wraps me up and wheels me
onto the field. I go 0-4 but hit two hard shots which are caught. We win
18-7 over Blanchard’s team. Even Slaughter says its hard to blow an 18-1
lead. Everyone but two of our younger players are walking wounded. We
go into our last game leading the league. If we beat Bauer’s team, we go
home with the trophies.
We lose 9-1 and drop into a three-way tie for first. The tie is to be
played off using three-inning games. Jake Gibbs’s team get a bye, and we
go up against Bauer’s team again. I manage to strike out for the first time
all week and go 0-3, but hey, I didn’t boot anything. However, in what is
clearly an act of divine retribution, in my last at bat I rap a hard grounder
right at my third-base coach — you guessed it — Enos Slaughter. He
tries to dance around it, but it hits him somewhere on the leg. True to his
country hardball heritage, he doesn’t rub it off, but I know it hurts. For the
briefest of instants, I was glad to have hit a 76-year-old man.
We win the first playoff game and prepare for game 2, but the rains
come and we reschedule for 11 a.m. Saturday. Sadly, we lose 4-1. Ken and
Jeff get key hits but not I. Slaughter reacts as I imagine he might if the
Cardinals had lost the World Series.
Finally, on Saturday afternoon, the memory to be treasured. We play
against the real ex-Yanks, including several who live in the area and come
by just for the game. I actually get a single off Stan Bahnsen, a former
Yankee from the 1960s. Ken actually catches a pop-up.
One of baseball’s top pitchers from the 1950s, Pedro Ramos, is also
pitching against us. During his stint, I happen to be standing in foul territory and pick up a stray foul ball. While throwing it back, I notice a
226 lengthy slice in the ball. I show it to Mickey. Mickey can’t believe it. It is
apparent that 60-year-old Pete Ramos is cutting the ball to keep us ersatz
ballplayers from making him look bad.
We are leading in our two-inning game 3-0. (Each team plays two innings against the ex-Yanks.) It’s the bottom of the second, and, in all the
years the camp has existed, the real Yankees have never lost one of these
games. With one out and the bases loaded, Mickey Rivers slaps a lazy
liner to left. Howard, our left fielder, settles under it and — horrors —
drops it. Two runs score. The next batter, Elliot Maddox, singles and we
lose 4-3. After the game, Howard remains deep in foul territory, refusing
to return to the dugout. Hey, Howard, this was supposed to be fun!
That night at the closing dinner, Mickey redeems himself. In a very
gracious speech, he thanks everybody for participating, apologizes to all
those he has offended, and then tells a story about once dropping a fly ball
in center that cost Whitey Ford what would have been his first 20-gamewinning season. “Howard,” he says, “If I could’ve just stayed out in center
and never come into the dugout, that’s what I would’ve done.”
We loved our fantasy and found out what its like to be a real big-league
ballplayer. It was tough, but as time passes, I have begun to realize that
all my hits were line drives, all my errors were bad hops, and on all those
pop-ups — hell, I had stars in my eyes. n
227 Remembering Chuck Merlini
Reflections on a classmate who marched to his own drum
By Rich Reinis
A
massive aneurysm claimed the life of Chuck on Wednesday, August 26,
2009. His family and friends gathered during the last few hours, after
the decision had been made to free him from the mechanical life-support
systems that had sustained him. Despite surgical efforts a week earlier, the
damage caused by a vascular rupture in his brain was too great.
Chuck and his older brother, Bill (of Erieville, New York), were raised
in Great Neck, on Long Island. The Merlini home was filled with the loving affection of Chuck’s parents, Angelo and Charlotte, who welcomed
many of the boys’ friends. Chuck excelled as an athlete and scholar at
Great Neck Junior and North High Schools. His close friend Paul Lapidus
describes him as “very impressive: great guy, great student and athlete,
incredibly good looking. Everyone liked him. He was so obviously good“
that he could get away with things Paul could not. He was a superstar football player and member of the swim team and one of the best track teams
on the Island.
Chuck went on to win an undergraduate degree from Princeton. He was
a religion-philosophy major and a star cornerback on Princeton’s 1964-65
football team, the university’s last undefeated team. A teammate, Bruce
Gates, introduced him to the “beautiful, smart and popular” Leigh Ross (of
Palm Beach, Florida) in 1963. The two immediately fell in love and were
inseparable. They married in 1964 and settled on Pine Street, in the heart
of Princeton. Their son, Richard, was born at the end of the year.
Chuck went all-out in grueling practices and games as the team went on
to national ranking and two Ivy League championships. He was a critical factor in its success, not only as someone willing to make high-speed
impact with opponents, but also as a spirited embodiment of what is good
in college athletics: he was a good sport, taking defeat and victory with
equanimity; he gave every practice and every game complete effort —
nothing less; he encouraged teammates; he studied his opponents carefully
and used his extraordinary understanding of the game to great advantage;
he was determined to win by the rules; he shared his knowledge with
everyone, including those with whom he competed (successfully) for a
starting role; he did not let injuries stand in his way and fought adversity
vengefully; and, he earned the admiration and respect of every player,
coach, and staff person who was fortunate enough to know him.
Those traits were not left on the football field. Chuck was a scholar.
Not too many football players, then or now, are religion-philosophy
228 majors, and at Princeton, a bridged major
required special faculty attention. It took great
determination to earn a degree in this unusual
major. What made him stand apart was his introspection. He was analytical and he applied
his skills to a level of self-awareness few
achieve. He could be very serious about ideas
and dissect complex notions, but he never
strayed too far from laughter. His success as a
student and as a friend was helped along by a
hearty sense of humor in a good natured and
naturally good man. Chuck was genuine and
sincere above all. He had well-worn smile
lines on his face and a twinkle in his eye that
made you suspect he might be planning someChuck Merlini turned his back on

After graduation, he and Leigh moved to

vard. Kate was born there in 1967. During
the years at Harvard he began to have some doubts about the pursuit of
material wealth, but he kept these thoughts close to the vest.
In 1968, he became an account manager at Foote Cone & Belding in
Manhattan, and he and Leigh moved to Westchester County. Chuck was
assigned to the General Foods account, where his outstanding work caused
the company to hire him away and assign him to the new products division. For six years, he worked on developing the market for a vegetable
form of bacon. General Foods offered him an executive career path that
would have quickly moved him up the corporate ladder, along with a substantial increase in salary. Chuck asked himself if his purpose in life was
to pursue such endeavors, figured it out with Leigh, and quit.
They sold their home and moved to South Salem, New York. Chuck had
half of the equation: he knew what he did not want to do for the remainder
of his days. It took a few years to figure out the other half, how to express
himself joyfully in his work. During that phase of his life, he learned the
real estate business developing a condominium project in the Berkshires,
achieving a level of success that might have lured others to stay with it. Not
Chuck. Shortly after the project was completed, he and Leigh decided to
move their family to the Ross Farm at Stevens Glen in Richmond, Massachusetts, which became their home for the balance of his life.
There, Chuck made up his mind to align his working life with his
evolving sense of who he was. As a developer, he had hired Tom Farley’s
landscaping company. Shortly after settling into his new home, he asked
Tom if he had any work. Assuming Chuck was asking on behalf of someone else, Tom was dumbfounded to realize that his former client wanted
229 to work on one of his landscaping crews. Thus began a relationship of 22
years in which both prospered, in considerably different ways.
As grounded a human being as has ever walked the earth, Chuck blossomed working with his hands in the soil of the Berkshires. This continued
until the day he died. Chuck worked as a crew member side by side with
folks many years his junior, who probably never knew he was an Ivy
Leaguer. The widowed mother of two of them, Roni Barrett, remembers
Chuck as the father her sons never had. When he picked them up in the
early morning he would honk once. To be sure these teenagers were out
of bed, she would say to them, “You’ve been Chucked.” In the years they
worked together, “Mr. Merlini” showed them by example. When obstacles
frustrated them, he was there, with his friendly mini-sledge, “the Persuader,” and they got the job done. Gently he guided them to accomplish goals
— and become men.
Using his incredibly strong arms and back, coupled with his grandfather Caesar’s earth-caressing fingers, Chuck moved the unmovable,
beautifying homes and parks while discovering himself and a peace one
can only envy. Considering his educational and professional pedigrees,
this took enormous courage; but, of course, he had it.
He and Leigh spent the next 30 years imbedding themselves in and
endearing themselves to the community. During that time, Chuck developed long-lasting relations with his neighbors and maintained old relationships. Ingrid Richardson, a Stevens Glen neighbor, remembers that all the
neighbors loved Chuck. If any snow removal, towing, or other chores were
required, they knew whom to call.
In this life he focused on the essentials. He found joy in being disentangled from things and the pursuit of manna, and pride in doing an honest
day’s work. He went to great efforts to make things grow, and he told
Leigh that when his time came, he wanted his ashes to be mixed with the
soil nurturing his plants and his favorite tree. If you visit their home, check
out the tomatoes. Leigh will show you the tree.
When you were lucky enough to be Chuck’s friend you had his complete attention. His memory was long and the slot into which you fit in that
vulnerable brain of his was not erased until the end. He could recall things
you might have said to him many years earlier. For those who knew him,
Chuck’s attentiveness was a privilege. If you asked Chuck for advice, it
was given willingly. But only rarely did he volunteer it. He had boundaries, and if you were lucky enough to be within them you had an incredible ally. It gave you comfort knowing he was much more than a friend.
He was on your team, and your back was covered. When troubled friends
called him, he listened and offered more than solace because he had more
to offer. He was a man of action and he helped the troubled compile a
practical to-do list.
Chuck would be the first to insist that the seminal event in his life was
230 his marriage to Leigh. She was the sun at the center of his universe, and
the family rotated largely in orbit around her. Leigh, in no small part,
contributed to his successful search for his core values. She cleared the
way for him to find himself. When you witnessed how they interacted,
it might have appeared that he was the driving force in choosing such an
unusual path, but it would not have been possible without her endorsement. Theirs was an unconditional commitment of love for one another
that lasted every day of their marriage. The profound love they shared was
proven by genuine sacrifice. They set aside customary spousal demands to
make each other happy. The two of them met many challenges together, as
all long-term marrieds inevitably do. The solutions were always rooted in
their core values, and number one was their commitment to each other and
to Richard and Kate.
Those two were recipients of blessings beyond number. Chuck was an
attentive parent, not afraid of discipline, but always supportive of their
individual freedom. He listened to them and responded with understanding, at times in the face of real tests of parental will. He urged them to find
themselves as he had. He followed them to Europe, the Caribbean, and
elsewhere to help them on their own journeys of self-discovery. His love
for them was unremitting, as unconditional as his love for Leigh. His work
choice was in no small measure a function of wanting to be there for them.
When Richard went off to Atlanta and Kate to Nantucket, he missed them
terribly, but he understood they were doing what he had done. It was clear
they had learned his lessons.
Chuck confronted issues of death with remarkable clarity. If he were
given the choice, he said, he wanted the end to be quick. That wish was
granted the morning of August 19, when he felt ill, got in his truck, and
drove almost an hour home to Leigh. The aneurysm was having an immediate effect, and one would like to imagine that a less-determined man
might not have had one final glimpse of his beloved. Not Chuck. He made
it to Stevens Glen and willed his truck up the knoll to their home. Leigh
yelled to him and he yelled back. When she reached him, he collapsed and
never regained consciousness. Quick, without prelude, unburdened and —
true to the way he lived his life — without being a burden.
On August 31, 2009, in Atlanta, Richard Merlini’s wife, Laura, gave
birth to Charles Lawrence Merlini, just five days after his grandfather’s
passing. Chuck was looking forward to the arrival of his first grandson. He
is also survived by granddaughter Anna, age 3, and Kate and Gordon of
Nantucket. n
