On the Cover
Paragon, Coe-Brown Academy’s award-winning literary magazine, has once again received accolades. Recently the National Council of Teachers (NCTE) announced that it
selected Paragon to receive its “Highest” rating for the 2004 edition.
Paragon is a student-edited literary magazine that showcases the
writings and artwork of Coe-Brown students. Members of the magazine staff read every entry and review all artwork submitted before
choosing the final contents of the magazine. Working under the guidance of advisors Anna Hazen and Lynn Sanborn, the students then
create the computer layout of the entire book. The wire sculpture
was created by Caitlin Davidson ‘06 and the cover was designed by
Lindsay Orlowski ’04.
Schools voluntarily submit their magazines to organizations such
as NCTE or the Columbia Scholastic Press Awards to receive critiques
and comments. Since 1998, Paragon has received either “Superior” or
“Excellent” ratings; this is the first year it has received NCTE’s “Highest” rating – the most prestigious rating they offer. In addition, the
magazine has received either a “Gold”, “Silver” or “Bronze” award
every year since 1997 from the Columbia Scholastic Press Awards.
Issues of Paragon can be read on the Coe-Brown website:

VISIONS - SPRING 2005 1
Bob Grant ’53, Truly Deserving Trustee Emeritus
Bob Grant joined CBNA’s Board in 1980.
A member of the Board of Trustees for fifteen years, and
its President for five of those years, from 1981 to 1986, Bob
Grant has made his mark on his alma mater. He commented
that after just one year on the Board, he accepted the role of its
President with the understanding that
the other trustees would back him 100
percent. He served for ten years, from
1980 to 1990, then went off the Board
for two. He missed the challenges and
the rewards and so he returned to the
board for five more, serving from 1992
to 1997, and during that time Smith
Hall was being built.
Bob said he was honored to be
asked to fill the role of Board President and understood the trustees were
looking for someone with a business
background. Bob had operated the
Northwood Garage for forty-five years
before selling it to son Jim, who is a
current Board member, and he had
run Northwood Transportation for
thirty-five years before selling it to his
daughter Debbie, who had graduated
from CBNA in 1983.That’s a lot of business experience!
The late 70’s were a turbulent time for many private schools
and Coe-Brown was no exception. In 1980, when Bob joined the
Board, the school’s greatest challenge was the urgent need to immediately hire a strong headmaster who could and would lead
the school through growth and change. Bob commented, “The
highlight of my Board career was hiring David Smith. Everyone
liked him and agreed with me that he was the right man to get the
school going. He did just that!” Bob is also very proud that the
Board, under his leadership, pulled together and became more
business oriented as policies changed and the school steadily
improved. “The expertise on the Board addressed all sorts of issues
and the Board developed a very strong relationship with David and
also with the faculty.”
During Bob’s years on the Board, the school did, indeed,
grow. Wiggin Hall was completely renovated, two rental apartments were remodeled to add to annual revenues, the library
was significantly expanded, the multi-purpose room was built
– all to help the school meet the wonderful growth it began to
experience. He reiterated that all that building was possible
because of the endowed interest from the school’s trust funds.
He credits much of the campus area that has been developed on the far side of the highway to his predecessor Bob
Johnson’s vision that led to the construction of the tunnel that
so effectively and safely connects the two areas of the campus.
The ties that bind Bob Grant to Coe-Brown Northwood
Academy are many and strong. His mother was Dorothy Kelly
Grant and all her family had attended the school at some time
or other, his daughter Debbie Grant D’Alessandro graduated in
1983 and his Grant grandchildren were very involved with
CBNA. Lindsey, Class of 2002, was featured on the front cover
of the first VISIONS for her outstanding senior project that organized Coe-Brown Cross Country inaugural race, Run to Fall
Emily and Bob Grant (center back) with their family.

5K. James, 2004, was featured on the cover of VISIONS III, when
he starred in Footloose, the 2003 spring musical.
Because Bob had to work after school and on weekends,
the girls in his first period study halls often had to help him
with his homework. He was handsome and charming (and he
certainly still is!) so he must not have had to try too hard to convince the young ladies to help him. He was an active member
of FFA his sophomore through senior years and a member of
the Senior Play cast in 1953. His after school commitments left
little time for sports but he loved baseball - the big sport in
the 1950’s at CBNA.
He laughingly and most emphatically declared that he had
absolutely nothing to do with the tower bell’s adventures when
he was a student in 1953, despite rumors to the contrary. He
did say that it was rung too hard, spun completely around on
its axis and broke into pieces. Years later, Bob and his buddy
Dick Bengtson ‘53 fixed it. A crane was on site to repair one of
the buildings so he and Dick repaired the bell and put it back.
The years Bob spent fixing cars and buses came in handy
when vehicles broke down in the Ag classroom; he could easily fix them. Although he’s retired from his businesses, Bob
still loves machines. He got his first airplane in 1969; he is now
flying his tenth, a Cessna 185 with floats, so he can fly it to
Florida and to Canada for fishing trips.
For more than half a century Bob Grant has been associated with Coe-Brown Northwood Academy. In keeping with his
cheerful and engaging optimism, he sums up his years on the
Board succinctly when asked to reflect on his biggest challenges and his vision for the school’s future. “It was all pretty
smooth all these years, and I had fun! My dream is to keep CoeBrown as good as it is right now. Everyone is happy with things
as they are.”

David Whitcher, Mainstay of CBNA’s Building and Grounds Committee
A critically important
function on any construction project is the overseer,
the one who sees the big
picture, the little flaws, the
omissions, the mistakes….
In the mid-1980’s, as
Coe-Brown Northwood Academy’s Board of Trustees began to think of further expansion to the campus to
more adequately house an
ever-increasing number of
students, the decision was
reached that a capable construction supervisor was
needed. On the drafting table were plans to construct
a larger library in place of
the automotive shop and
add 5 or 6 new classrooms
near the Towle-Swain Resource Center. Because some
of this construction was
within existing structures,
the plan was complex and
the building of the necessary new spaces was complicated, a true professional was needed.
The Board had the wisdom and foresight to hire a Clerk of
the Works, David Whitcher. A member of the Planning Board of
the town of Strafford, David had the construction experience
and the familiarity with building codes to be able to professionally and competently oversee the many projects that have been
undertaken in the intervening twenty years at CBNA. A graduate of the University of New Hampshire, with a degree in geol-
4 VISIONS - SPRING 2005
ogy and a minor in business, he soon realized there
weren’t any jobs around in
the geology field so he returned to construction,something he had enjoyed when
he was just out of high
school. It’s been his profession ever since.
When asked why he’s
been so incredibly involved
with Coe-Brown, when he
didn’t even attend it, David
answered, “I went to a small
school in Strafford, AustinCate, a school that doesn’t
even exist any more. We competed with CBNA, so I knew
it well. I had it in the back of
my mind that I didn’t want
Coe-Brown to ever close.”
David’s expertise and experience resulted in his election to the Board of Trustees in 1985 and, as chair of
the Board’s Building and
Grounds Committee, David
said, “I was compelled to see
the completion of the multitude of expansions and additions. And I enjoyed our hands-on Board even though the challenges to find the necessary money and the effort needed for
coordination of more and more remodeling were huge.”
In 1988, another addition, for new science and math classrooms and a multi-purpose room, was created behind and beneath the Gerrish Gymnasium and in 1989 a building adjacent
to Wiggin Hall was renovated for a music/band room.
With Alumni Field across the ever-increasingly busy Route
4, student safety became a concern; by December, 1990, a tunnel below the highway was completed and a building was constructed that sheltered the concrete ramps down to the tunnel
on the uphill side.
In 1998 CBNA’s excellent music program required that
Wiggin Hall be enlarged to meet the demands of that department’s growth and popularity. Two more classrooms were also
fitted into Wiggin Hall. But more classroom space was urgently
needed so Soper Hall was renovated to house social studies,
language and more math classrooms. Then the Robinson property was acquired to provide more parking spaces.
The tunnel under Route 4 encouraged the Board’s Building and Grounds Committee to look to all of the Academy’s
land across the highway. In 1995, the spacious and modern
Smith Hall was completed; in it were a much needed and much
larger second gymnasium, offices and classrooms for the vocational programs. The foyer of the Main Building was enlarged
Above: Smith Hall
Left: Library
Right: Multi-purpose room
Below: Wiggin Hall
and remodeled and both conference rooms were significantly
renovated.
After voting in late 2002 to authorize the expansive science and math edifice, with a dining commons and kitchen on
the lower level, the Board proceeded, under David’s watchful
eye, to construct the magnificent new building situated between Wiggin Hall and the old building.
David commented, “I’ve done what needs to be done. As the
administration has passed down information to my committee,
we have been able to make decisions about the size, function, location and relationship of spaces. I carefully consider the financial
impact on the institution and I create preliminary designs that
use spaces in a logical way. My preliminaries are pretty much utilized for the final blueprints. From now until June we’ll be hard at
work on the Master Plan for the next five years.” He went on to
say, “This building we’re in (Smith Hall) got us over the hump for
continued growth. It was across the street and it worked for us.
We’ve been able to expand our campus and avoid the monstrosity
of one huge, ugly building on the original side of Route 4.”
When David Whitcher retires from CBNA’s Board, he can
and should be justifiably proud of his enormous contributions
to the creation of the new face of the Academy. As he said, “I
am most proud, personally, of Coe-Brown’s expansion accomplished
in a logical manner and an orderly pattern while filling the needs
of the student population. And I am truly proud of our students,
the way they are each day and their obvious gratitude for their
education here. I am so impressed with their overall cleanliness and
care for this institution they so obviously respect. Our administration and Board are responsible for their attitude, I believe.
“My dreams? I’d love to see a complete restoration of the old
building and the construction of a new arts center.”
Despite his imminent retirement from Coe-Brown Northwood Academy’s Board of Trustees, one senses he will continue to be involved with the school he so obviously loves.

VISIONS - SPRING 2005 5
My Story by Wesley Broome ’38
From a one-room schoolhouse, I came to Coe-Brown Northwood Academy for high school, from 1934 to 1938. It was
quite a change for me, but the teachers were so helpful. I enjoyed it very much and learned a great deal in preparation for
college. While attending Coe-Brown Northwood Academy, I
developed a radio repair business. I thought I would continue
this business full-time after I graduated from Coe-Brown Northwood Academy, but Mrs. Richardson convinced me that I still
had a lot to learn and should go to college. Thanks to her, I enrolled in the University of New Hampshire, majoring in Electrical Engineering. I also played trumpet in the marching band. I
became very interested in all theories of engineering, especially
the automatic control of aircraft. I wrote a thesis on the automatic control of aircraft and sent it to the General Electric Co.
in Schenectady, New York. They hired me after I graduated from
UNH in 1942. I started work in the Aeronautics and Marine
Division.
My first job was developing a 50-caliber ammunition booster for the machine gun in aircraft gun turrets. My next assignment was to develop an aircraft automatic pilot with the help
of mechanical and instrumental engineers who developed and
built the hydraulic activators and gyroscopes and I designed
and built the electronic amplifier and controls. This equipment
was built for the Navy and installed on a TBF (Torpedo Bomber
Fighter) in Philadelphia. I did a lot of flying with a Navy pilot
to test the performance. I also designed and built controls for
the Norden Bombsight and for a control that would maintain
6 VISIONS - SPRING 2005
constant altitude of the aircraft for torpedo launching. This
equipment worked so well that the British Royal Air Force
wanted the autopilot installed on a Mosquito bomber. After installing and testing the autopilot on the Mosquito bomber, the
plane was flown to England. I was asked to go to England to
study applying these automatic controls on the other aircraft.
On February 10, 1944, I went to England on the ship Queen
Mary with thousands of troops. It took five days. We had to
dodge German submarines and icebergs. The weather was bad,
with snow, rain and high winds.
We docked in Glasgow, Scotland on February 18th and
took a train to London. On the way, we had to wait about two
hours for the tracks to be cleared of an unexploded bomb. I
was stationed in Farnbaugh, south of London. This facility (RAF)
was for the development and testing of aircraft. After testing the
Mosquito bomber, they asked me to fly on other airplanes and
make recommendations regarding the application of the GE
automatic controls to other aircraft. One of my first flights was
on the British Lancaster bomber, a large, four-engine bomber.
On May 22nd, five of us, including the pilot and me, flew south
about 50 miles and landed at Bascomb Downs. On take-off, the
starboard engine caught fire, causing the right wing to drop.
The pilot nosed the plane down to try and hold flying speed,
then the plane spiraled to the ground. I was standing beside the
pilot when the plane crashed. I remember being thrown from
the plane and landing on the ground. I was put on a stretcher,
then into an ambulance with the engineers and taken to the
emergency room. I was transferred to three different hospitals
until a doctor at a U.S. military hospital was able to set my right
arm and elbow and put it in traction. A few days later, they put
a cast on that covered my waist, shoulders and right arm.
On July 25th, I was transferred to Prestwick for a transAtlantic flight to Long Island. Around Iceland, the pilot got a
message that a plane that had left Prestwick about half an
hour before we did had gone down. We spent about an hour
at low altitude looking for it, but could find no sign of it. We
were on the ground in Iceland for about an hour and then
took off for New York.
When we landed in New York, we were transported to New
Cantonment Hospital at Mitchell Field on Long Island. Four
days later, I checked myself out of the hospital, took an ambulance to the train station and went to Boston where my parents
met me and took me home to Barrington, New Hampshire. About
three weeks later, GE sent a limousine to pick me up and take
me to Schenectady, New York to start work.
In November 1945,I met Shirley at her sister’s wedding. We
were married six months later on May 25, 1946.
My first project after returning to GE was the development
of rocket engines and the control of the thrust of rocket engines. In January 1946, I was sent to White Sands, New Mexico
to help with the interrogation of the German engineers that
had worked on the German V-1 and V-2 rockets that were used
to bomb London and other targets.
In 1949, I left GE and went to work for Raytheon in Waltham, Massachusetts. I was in charge of developing control sys-
tems for portable, airborne, ship-borne and submarine radar
systems. As the orders for these products decreased, Raytheon
wanted to develop a commercial business. We developed controls for process control valves, nuclear equipment and many
industrial machines for the steel and aluminum industry.
We used Oilgear Co. hydraulic equipment on many of these
projects, so Oilgear made a deal with Raytheon to buy our servocontrol group in Waltham and move us to Milwaukee, Wisconsin. I was made chief engineer.
Rex Chainbelt in Milwaukee offered me a job in their
technical center to develop controls and drives for some of
their products. One of my projects was a baggage handling
system that would take a bag from one area and drop it off in
another area for a different flight or airline. This system was
patented and installed in the Seattle Airport. Rex Chainbelt
bought the Racine Hydraulics Co. in Racine, Wisconsin, and I
became Vice President of Engineering of the Racine Hydraulics
Division. During my time with Oilgear and Rex Chainbelt, I
obtained about ten patents and wrote about fifteen technical
articles for publication. I also made a lot of friends and contacts. This led to me forming my own engineering and consulting business in 1970.
I was very fortunate to have very good engineers work with
me. We had several very interesting projects with Bethlehem
Steel and AT & T. With Bethlehem Steel, we worked on many
machines for steel, like controlling the thickness (gauge) of
sheet steel and many other forms of steel.
On March 28, 1979, the nuclear power plant on Three
Mile Island near Middletown, Pennsylvania overheated, which
caused the uranium core to melt and allowed radioactive gas
to escape into the atmosphere. This caused the nuclear rods
in the reactor to melt and break and fall to the bottom of the
reactor housing. I was asked to design and build equipment
that would go in to the reactor housing and retrieve the
pieces of nuclear material without exposing the operators to
radiation. It took several months to design and build this
equipment, but it did the job without any injuries.
I was also asked to design control equipment for the nuclear electric generating plant in Puerto Rico. This equipment
would raise and lower the nuclear rods that would adjust
power output to the level needed for the electric generators.
Our most interesting project with AT & T was working
with the Bell Lab engineers to develop a remote operated vehicle to operate on the ocean floor. This vehicle, named SCARAB
(submersible craft assisting repair and burial) was launched and
controlled from a large ship. With a central cable between the
ship and SCARAB, the SCARAB could find and track telephone
cables that were buried in the ocean floor. Frequently, these
cables would be damaged which would require locating the
damaged area, bringing the cable to the surface, repairing the
damage, replacing the cable on the ocean floor and burying it
to prevent further damage. SCARAB was also used to locate
items such as crashed airplanes. For example, pieces of the Air
India jet that crashed off the coast of Ireland were located and
recovered 700 feet below the ocean surface.
We also designed and built the equipment to install and bury
the first fiber optic telephone cable between the Canary Islands.
We also developed, for Bethlehem Steel, an off-shore drilling platform jacking system that would raise the platform
above the water about 20 feet to prevent wave damage to the
drilling platforms.
As time went on, I was asked to be an expert witness on
numerous legal cases. When my chief engineer passed away,
my full time job was
consulting and expert
witness projects. I am
now 83 and have an
expert witness case to
work on.
I believe my success in the engineering
business was due to the
excellent training I had
at Coe-Brown Northwood Academy and the
University of New
Hampshire. Also, I was
very fortunate to have
the opportunity to work
with excellent people.

Class Notes
Class of 1936:
Elizabeth Doe Jaderborg in Lindsborg, KS, writes
"I am ready to send a check to you for the new dining hall. We used to sit out on the grass bank (east of
the Academy building) with Roxie Richardson when
we ate our lunches. She was the best teacher I ever had
- Math and History of Civilization, and I learned more
about nutrition from studying her sandwiches and
listening to her than I did in four years at Keene in
home economics classes. She always brought her lunch
even though she and George (her husband at the
"Pansy Farm") were within walking distance - She
was an unforgetable person at Coe-Brown for all her
students - just ask "Bill" Hayes, my classmate in Texas."
Class of 1938:
Lucille Boodey Hill, Class Agent - 255 Old Hinsdale Rd.,
Ashuelot, NH 03441-2610. Telephone 603-225-6998.
Dear Ginny, It was my pleasure to meet you at
Johnson’s on Sept. 19th. Our group had a great time
talking over old times. At the Chapel, I met three
people that I went to UNH with, so it was quite an
eventful day. I am so glad that Coe-Brown is such a
good school. I can’t believe how it has grown. The
Trustees have been good stewards. I still can’t believe
Perry Richardson has left us. I guess I always figured
he would be near to care about the Academy. I still
have some pictures which I will have copied for you.
How many members of Class of 1938 are still living?
I have met and become friendly with Betty Young
Geers (1948); I always knew George. She and I worked
at the same place at different times. Hope to make
Coe’s Reunion some year.
Class of 1939:
We are sorry to learn that Ellsworth Davis recently passed away.
enjoyed a lunch this summer with Grace Bartlett
Perkins ’49. Chatted with Romayne Jackson. She says
she’s “content” with her family. Gordon Fogg moved
to the “White Rock” apartment complex in Bow. When
I spoke with him, he was getting ready to drive to
Washington, DC to help celebrate one of his grandchildren’s first birthday! Jimmy Gray says he’s “Still
alive and kicking”, still working and “plugging along
from day to day”. Doesn’t that sound just like the
Jimmy we knew at CBNA? He reports sister Virginia
’46 now lives in Ossipee.
George Clark is still busy and active with the Fire
Department and the Deerfield Fair Association. Arthur
is fine and planning on seeing everyone at the reunion. Bob has a busy family with sons working on
Masters Degrees, grandchildren at Plymouth State
University and a granddaughter that has been in the
Army. A granddaughter has one child and a grandson two, making Bob a great-grandfather three times!!
He drove to Maryland for his feed of crab cakes.
Betty and George ’45 enjoyed a visit from Leatitia
“Juma” Guptill Richards ’46, George Richards ’45
and Paul Guptill ‘52 this summer. Great to see them
and talk over old memories. Betty and George are
looking forward to being great-grandparents in July.
“How time flies!”
Romayne, George, Arthur and Betty represented the
Class of ’48 at reunion in 2004. Would love to have the
whole class join us this June. ‘Til next time, Betty.
Class of 1951:
Robert L. Burklund, Class Agent - 226 Northwood
Rd., Strafford, NH 03884, Telephone: 603-664-9631;
e-mail bolaketurtlcove@webtv.net.
I finally located classmate Robert Reis thru
Classmates.com. We graduated from Coe-Brown over

8 VISIONS - SPRING 2005
Bob, received your fax in August, then shortly
after, received a letter. Since 1951 in my life - After
graduating from Coe-Brown, I went to UNH and received a degree in economics in May 1955. The following September I was called into the Air Force. I
had received a commission from ROTC. I went to
flight school and got my wings in 1956 as a multiengine pilot. SAC took most of the class, and I ended
up as a B-47 pilot. Got out in 1958, and having met
a girl while stationed in Idaho, we returned to her
home in St. Louis and got married.
I went to work for Mosanto Chemical Co. in STL,
was there for nine years. During that time we had
two children; Tracy, a girl in 1960 and a girl Jill in
1965. Moved to Angelica for five years. Had a boy,
Rob in 1968. The next 20 years I was with Maritz
Inc, a motivation and group travel company. They
transferred me to San Francisco in 1987, where I
lived until retirement in 1992.
My wife passed away in 1990. The kids remained
in STL.
I remarried in 1994 and stayed in California
until 1995, when we moved to New Mexico, my
wife’s home.We’re in the town of Belen,35 miles
south of Albuquerque. I’m active in the local
Chamber of Commerce and other volunteer activities. My passion is golf. I played on the New
Mexico Seniors Tour, in which we get to play all
over the state and win some nice prizes. I’ve won
a couple of times in each of the last few
years, so it keeps me going. My wife Bea
works for the U. of NM.
Am very active with the UNH
Alumni. Will be coming back to NH
next June for my 59th Reunion.
Can you believe it? Any way, that’s
about it. I’d love to hear about all
the Coe-Brown Alums.
In 2004 we visited St. Louis to visit with family
and our five grandchildren. Bea’s job with U. of NM
requires her to travel periodically. If it’s a good destination, I tag along. This year we traveled to Washington, DC and San Antonio, TX.
Class of 1954:
Norene Holmes Sauls, P.O. Box 955, Murrells Inlet, SC

In a note from Noni, she says: “Derek Peterson
called me for a pledge to the annual fund. I was
delighted to hear from him, as I was the nurse at
Northwood Elementary when he moved to Northwood. Will see you all in May when my granddaughter, Kayla Sauls, graduates. My father, Noah Holmes,
graduated in 1931 from CBNA. I graduated in 1954,
my son Wade Sauls graduated in 1984 and his daughter, Kayla, graduates in 2005. That is what you call
a tradition. I am glad my children were there when
Mr. David Smith arrived. You have made us proud.”

Hi! I am the new Class Agent for the Class of
1956. Since we have not had one in several years
and since 2006 is fast approaching (more on that
later), I volunteered to contact my former Classmates
and get reacquainted with them. For the most part,
it has been a lot of fun and I have heard back from
several of them.
Sadly, we have lost one classmate, Virginia A.
Wood Kelley. Virginia died on Feb. 22, 2002 of
cancer. She lived in Cass City, MI and was married
to Scott Kelley for 45 years. She had 4 children, 4
grandchildren and 1 great grandchild. Our heartfelt

and playing cards. She spends her summers in New
England and winters in Florida.

their 5th wheel camper to the Southwest every winter.
I do hope our whole class of 1956 will plan on
attending our 50th Class reunion in June 2006. I do
plan on going to the Alumni Banquet (June 11) this
year and would love to meet any of my former classmates who can possibly attend. In any event please
make note of June 2005 and June 2006 on your calendars. Thanks for all the participation in getting the

Pamela Holmes Wood, Class Agent, wrote: This
year is special for the Class of ’73. For most of us,
there is a big birthday ahead. Some may have had it
last year, but for me, it’s now. It has been difficult to
say the number out loud, but 50 it is, ready or not!
Having been asked to be the class agent this year of
all years, has been a treat. As I was writing to all of
you, memory after memory came passing. Just like
time, just like being fifty.
A special thanks to those of you who responded.
Here are some updates: from Shelley Bennett Kirschner. She is living in Missouri, married with a 16-year
old son, Cody. Her husband and his two cousins
work their 150-year old family farm. She has been
teaching those with learning disabilities for 28 years
and is ready to retire. Aren’t we all...Shelley is a yardstick for which to measure your intellectual acumen.
It’s hard to keep up, but what fun it is to try.
Marilyn Konopka Metcalf: She and husband Bob
live in New Hampshire. They have a daughter, Jen,
who has her degree in criminal justice. Marilyn spends
her free time running road races and has taken up
bike racing. In between all of this, she has been working for the state, going on twenty years. Her heart
has given her some problems, requiring surgery, but
as ever, it remains in the right place. She gives us all
good reasons to keep enjoying life.
Karen Belyea Jalbert: She and her husband lived
in Merrimack, New Hampshire for the last 20 years,
but have recently moved to Nashua. They have four
children and two grandchildren. They have owned a
restaurant, she has managed a restaurant, and now
she is working for the Merrimack School system as
cook in the lunch program. Her husband is now an
auto body painter. Art and food – what a great combination! I haven’t had a chance to ask her if she is
a really good cook, a gift to us all.
Sharolyn and Everett Brown: They live in Northwood. Everett has a thriving auto repair business,
and Sherri has been working for the state for enough
years to enjoy retiring. I have been lucky enough to
catch up with them on my sporadic visits home. I
wish they were more often and longer…
I live in Idaho with my husband and
two children. They are only 15 and 11.
It took me longer to grow up. I hope it
takes me even longer to grow old. For
all of you who opened the letters I
sent, I hope they came with happy memories. Who could have imagined how
much Coe-Brown would have grown and
how great it has become. We
send our thanks to those
who have had the vision, put in the hard
work, and raised the
money.
Attention all 1974 graduates:
I have tried to contact many of you however find
that my email address list for most of you is no longer up to date. Please contact me via email with the
updated information so that I can be more effective
with dispersing/requesting information from each of
you. I would also like to extend an invitation for you
to consider joining Heidi and I for the annual alumni
dinner held at Coe Brown each June. The cost for attending is minimal and I am sure that many other
alumni would feel good to see new faces. At the very
least it would be wonderful to spend a few hours together catching up and the support it offers to all
those who faithfully attend each year would be appreciated. Heidi and I have attended for several years
and enjoy the time together as well as the opportunity to visit with those we would otherwise miss. I
know that Mel has mentioned a BIG 50 coming up,
what a good chance for joining forces and celebrating with a little reunion.
Be sure to write me and we can work on this
together. Suzi Cummings-Falcone ptera@comcast.net

Christine Larsen Mousseau, 121 Meadow Rd., Apt 2;

cmousseau@onlineplaygroup.com.
Dear Mrs. Rogers: My name is Christine Mousseau. My maiden name was Larsen and I’m a former
student of the Class of 1987. I have enjoyed reading
the Visions and getting news about Coe-Brown. I
would really love to plan a 20th Class Reunion in
2007 for our class. I have been living in Keene, NH
for the past 16 years. I have been married for 6 years
now to a wonderful man and I have a 3-year old
daughter, named Mikayla.
I have always loved Coe-Brown. Being a student
there 18 years ago was one of the best times of my life.
My favorite teachers were many, but Mr. Smith and
Mr. Tom Hall had a very special place in my heart. I
dreamed of someday becoming a History teacher,
like Tom Hall and teaching at Coe-Brown. I really
want my daughter to somehow attend Coe-Brown
when she is in high school. I miss the school a lot and
would love to put time in to be a Class Agent. I am a
stay-at-home Mother. So I have a lot of time. I am
home during the day and you can call at any time.
Either email, call or write me to let me know if I
can become a Class Agent for the Class of 1987. Thank
you very much. (Thank you Christine for volunteering to be a Class Agent, Welcome aboard! Ginny).
The Class of 1987 is fortunate to have two Class
Agents now. Julie Allen Snell also volunteered to
work with Christine on updating the mailing list
and contacting those who are AWOL. You can contact Christine at the above address. Julie can be contacted at: Julie Allen Snell, P.O. Box 228, Northwood, NH 03261. Telephone: 603-942-7583; E-mail

What’s It Like On the Other Side…
... of the desk? Coe-Brown Northwood Academy is very
fortunate to have a number of its graduates now sitting on
the other side. They offered interesting perspectives on that.
Sitting in that position for a long time is Sally
Johnson Aseltine ’69, who commented, “The
differences between the late 1960’s and now are
substantial. There’s a whole different school administration, the size of graduating classes has
increased from 20 in my class to 150 in the Class
of 2005. There were no counselors when I attended. I have flashbacks, remembering when I was in the same
room 40 years ago.
“I said I would never come back and it actually took 19 years
before I was on the other side of the desk here. There was an intriguing position advertised for a part-time position at Coe-Brown. I was
working full-time for the state then and I had little children with
whom I wanted to spend more time. My dream is that CBNA will never lose the small-school feel and that it will maintain the positive atmosphere and tone that David Smith has set. He encourages innovation, hires good people and then trusts them to do the right thing. I
also dream about the fine arts center Coe-Brown will one day have.”
A graduate of Bates College, with her M.S.W. from Michigan State University, Sally is Dean of Student Services and Guidance Director and advisor to the Peer Helpers at Coe-Brown
Northwood Academy. She has been a member of the Board of
Trustees, a guidance counselor and also a public health social
work consultant, social worker and therapist in her career.
Stacy Johnson Colman, who graduated in
1989, twenty years after her aunt Sally did,
originally felt “a little weird when I came back
to Coe-Brown to work with many of the same
teachers I’d had in class. I found it very difficult to call them by their first names – that was
so hard to overcome. On the other hand, when I
was a student, I found it very hard to call my Aunt Sally Mrs.
Aseltine! And Mr. Smith was the headmaster when I was a student!
But the atmosphere that I loved was still the same and gradually I became more comfortable. But, I never in my wildest dreams
thought I’d teach high school level and be on the other side of the desk
here. I’d been teaching third grade and the neatest thing happened;
some of the kids I taught in Nottingham came here. Everything has
come full circle and there are so many connections and memories. My
dream? I want the wonderful atmosphere to continue and I want a bigger library with two media specialists and a larger media room.”
A graduate of Wheaton College, Stacy is pursuing a graduate degree in Library Science; she is CBNA’s library assistant
and formerly taught elementary school in the area.
Sarah Mooers Ward, ’83, agreed with Stacy
that it was “strange to be working with many
of the same teachers that I had had in school
and sometimes it was awkward. My first job had
been in Georgia, where I was an overwhelmed
horticulture and electronics teacher; I came home
when my father died. At first I worked part time
as an agriculture teacher with Mr. Davis and Mr. Farr and I was
so comfortable with the curriculum here. And the staff is so very
close. Mr. Farr had said I’d be a wonderful teacher; I hope I am.
“The major difference is the size of the graduating classes
because mine only had 36, a small but bright group. The administration is really different too because the school was not
12 VISIONS - SPRING 2005
very well managed before I started here and then we got Mr.
Smith! He’s consistent, fair and doesn’t waiver. My dream is that
my department will get more physical lab space because my
classes and I grow the flowers and foundation plantings that we
install. The Board is involving me in planning of spaces. We need
a chain saw lab as well! And the barn stays!”
Sarah graduated from the University of New Hampshire
with an associate’s degree in horticultural science from the
Thompson School of Applied Science. She then received a BS
in Agricultural Education from the University of Georgia. She
is a member of the Strafford Conservation Commission.
Roberta Reese Mongeon ‘66, who teaches
Family and Consumer Studies, has an Associate in Arts degree from UNH, Manchester,
and B. S. in Home Economics Secondary Education from UNH. “I’ve been on this side of the
desk so long I’m not sure I remember the student
side! I do remember that it would be a rare occasion when we did not do our homework and very few students
would speak to a teacher in a disrespectful manner. My dream for
Coe-Brown is that it always be a school that tries to educate all
students regardless of their needs.”
James Johnson ‘84 is a math teacher. “Sitting
on the other side of the desk seems normal now.
The biggest difference in Coe-Brown is the size
– there are 3 times the number of students now
than when I was a student. I hope the school
doesn’t grow too much.”
James studied Energy Management at
UNH and Mathematics Education at NH College.
Jennifer Wheet ‘90 is an English teacher at
CBNA. She too, had some problems adjusting
to her new role. “Going from student to teacher
was strange at first, I have to admit. I did part
of my student teaching at Coe-Brown, before I
was an ‘official’ teacher, and it was a very odd
feeling to be eating lunch with some of my former teachers and entering the ‘inner sanctum’ of the teachers’
room. It has taken me about five years to get comfortable with
calling some of my colleagues by their first names, because I respected them so much as my teachers. I still can’t bring myself to
call Headmaster Smith by his first name! One of the downsides
is that I have obscured many of my own high school memories of
Coe-Brown. Since this is the place where I work on a daily basis,
it’s gone from ‘here’s the room where I first talked to that boy! to
‘here’s the room where I taught that great class.’
The physical structures and look of the buildings and campus
have changed tremendously in just fourteen years. No more dangerous dashes across Route 4 for gym class, as now there is an underground tunnel. As a student, I remember parking my car each
morning in front of Soper House and waving to Mrs. Thumm in
her kitchen as she made breakfast for her husband, a custodian
at the time. Now it’s a building of classrooms and unrecognizable
as a former home. My cross-country club (not even an official team
at that time) used to run up into the sandpits and hills across the
street where now we find a modern track and baseball field. My
own classroom is located in what many of us remember as the boys’
locker room. The old shower is still there, used as a supply closet.
I think it’s funny that I teach in a place that was so forbidden and
mysterious to me as a student!
“I can see great changes in the students today as well. We had
no cable television, internet, or even sophisticated computers when
I was a student. I think we were less worldly, and perhaps enjoyed
a longer childhood. Students today are more savvy and are much
more knowledgeable about the world outside Northwood. This has
both positive and negative consequences.
“While most people embrace change, my hope is that as we
move forward, we keep much of the tradition, values, discipline and
pride that we’ve always had at Coe-Brown. I think it is this consistency that makes this school such a wonderful place to attend
and a great place to work – as evidenced by the number of alumni
that come back! Alumni of any era would be able to recognize
parts of the Coe-Brown they knew so well despite the changes to
the campus. And although we’re larger, it still feels like the same
close community we’ve always had. Class size remains small, and
I’m able to give the same close attention that I received from
teachers to my students in turn. I like the thought of Coe-Brown
passing down its traditions for a long time to come, and I enjoy
being a part of its long history.”
Jennifer has a B.A. in English/Communications from Boston’s Emmanuel College and an M.S.T. in English from the University of New Hampshire.
Sharon Young Graham ’81 is a paraprofessional who is happy to be working at Coe-Brown.
“Coe-Brown is very appreciative of its employees.
The Academy has more to offer than when I attended and the population has changed dramatically. I had 41 students in my graduation class.
“I would like to see Coe-Brown expand in
the way that Concord, Spaulding, Exeter, Dover and many other
schools have. Those schools have courses for everybody; not every
student goes to college. My dream is for a bigger vocational program and an expansion of the arts programs because not everyone
is an athlete. Coe-Brown needs to demonstrate more diversity in the
programs that it offers”
Tanya Newton Spead ’93, who has been a
paraprofessional at CBNA for three years, reflected, “Being on the other side of the desk reminds me of how frustrating school can be. I
recognize my own body language, in the kids,
from when I was a student. Being on the other
side of the desk has taught me that teachers are
‘human’ and they can become frustrated when time and effort are
put into a student and the student does not try. The rewards as a
teacher really come from the students you were truly able to reach,
especially when nobody else could. Teachers who are no longer
here at CBNA fought the battle to have me see what I could be. If
not for those teachers who took the time and made the effort to
really know me as a person I would have never gone to college.
”The biggest difference I see at CBNA is that, because of its
size, it’s losing its small town flavor. I am glad to hear the words
‘our community’ from the headmaster because it reminds me of
when I attended school here. When I attended CBNA we were a
class M school with 389 students. All of the teachers, including
those I did not have, knew me. Even today some of the alumni tell
me stories about things I did or said when I was a teen.
“My dream is for CBNA to not get any larger. I think that all
the faculty members that I have seen really try to motivate their students.In the future I want to still see, every other week, students recognized in the gym for their efforts in academics, activities and sports.
This was where I first thought of becoming the first person in my family to go to college.The names of people being announced who were involved made me want to be more active. Because of this I was active
in several things, including cheerleading, cross country, chorus, National Art Society and Peer Counseling. I now have a BA in Behavioral Science as a result of my peer counseling experiences. I would like
to see CBNA continue to encourage the creation and display of art.
I have been in many schools and nowhere have I seen the display
of talented artists’ work like we do here. I would like to see more
creative writing showcased or read to the student body, as well.”.
Cheri Smith Wolf ‘72 is the secretary of student services. Her memories are vivid. “As a junior and senior at Coe-Brown I helped Mrs. Bea
Clements (then the school secretary)out in the front
office every chance I got, answering the telephone,
filing, and doing whatever else had to be done; I
was always ready to help. I had always dreamed
of coming back and working in the office. This July will be my 21st
year. I guess that might speak for itself. To be able to interact with
today’s generation has been a pleasure and at times a challenge. I
enjoyed my high school years - my favorite classes - all office procedures - accounting, typing, etc. I wish that I were attending Coe-Brown
at the present because of all the classes offered at this level.
“I would have to say the major difference between then and
now is the teachers. These teachers at present care so much about
their students, it’s hard to believe how much they care. Being a student in the 70’s, teachers didn’t have the same concerns, patience or
attitudes toward their students. Don’t get me wrong,we did have some
great teachers and maybe being a student then has a lot to do with my
perceptions. Another major difference is the expansion of the school,
to say the least, from my 24-member class when I graduated in 1972,
to 150 in today’s senior class. Part of where I’m working right now
used to be the library. There have been lots of changes.
“I come from a long line of graduates from Coe-Brown - my
mom, uncles, aunts, brothers and sister all graduated from CBNA,
as well as my three children, Ricky, Heather and Brian.
“My dream is that I’d like to see CBNA stay small. Coe-Brown
has grown by leaps and bounds, both student - and building-wise
and to continue growth would take the individual closeness away.”
Gary Colby ’81 said, “It feels awesome to be
on the other side of the desk. It literally is a
dream come true. Since I decided to be a teacher back in the late ‘70’s it had always been a
goal of mine to come back and teach where I
enjoyed growing up so much.
“The differences between now and then are
so many that trying to list them all is impossible. The size of the student body growing from 140 in 1981 to close to the 700 mark today
truly shows the positive place this school has become. I always say
that our crowded hallways are the result of our success. Teaching in
rooms now that years ago served so many other purposes or did not
even exist is really neat as well, although I miss having classes up
in room 401 and how it used to sway a little on a really windy day.
I also see now how Northwood and Strafford have become bedroom
communities for so many professionals who now send their students
here. The local flavor and small ‘feel’ still exist but the professional
public now expects more for their children and CBNA has certainly
met and exceeded expectations.
“My dream for the future of our school is that it continues to be a
great place to learn and work and that more young people are inspired
by what they do here and grow up to be teachers themselves.”
Gary received his B. A. degree from Notre Dame College, in
Manchester, NH where he majored in US History and minored
in Education.
