Remembrance

 

Mary Hessel Dodge,   Kim Kurt Waller

Dear Classmates,

Thanks to all of you who contributed to the Remembrance project. Because you so generously shared your photos, tributes and memories, all 59 of our now-deceased classmates who were freshmen with us or transferred in later will have a page in our 50th Reunion Book. 

We asked, and you responded—with stories, anecdotes, impressions, and updates on their interesting and valuable lives after graduation.  What we anticipated as a gathering of sorrows became instead a fascinating and inspiring experience. You told about strong friendships, about their amazing accomplishments, their trials, and their gifts to others. We hope that reading the Remembrance pages brings back to you some long-forgotten memories, and provides a chance, as it did for us, to both recall and say goodbye to those we have lost. 

The sometimes arduous task of creating these pages was made lighter by far by the extraordinary support and research efforts of our Reunion Book editor, Mary Edwards. Without her help and your contributions, our deceased classmates would not have been part of this special reunion. Now they are.

With heartfelt thanks, Mary and Kim
