Bill de Haven
George deMan
writes: “Got to-
gether in Palo Alto, Calif., where
Tom Bartlett
is an instructor
in Chinese Studies at Stanford.
Susan and I joined Tom for
lunch, followed by an insider’s
campus tour. I had attended UC
Berkeley in the 1960s and gave
Susan a tour of my old haunts
and apartment (still there).
But the Architecture Depart-
ment has become the School of
Journalism– a sign of the times,
perhaps?”

Save the date for our 55th re-
union – June 3, 4, and 5, 2016.
Peter Pell
writes: “
Geoff
DeVito ’95
gave the daily his-
torical and cultural destination
lectures on a recent Seabourn
Sojourn Cruise I was on. When
he said he was from a small
town in NewHampshire, I asked
him at the end of the lecture if
he knew of SPS. Not only had
he heard of SPS and attended
but he had Marcia Matthews
as a teacher as a youngster
at school in Concord. He was
very informative – I went to
every lecture and we had drinks
together on the last night on
board. Geoff is a graduate of
St. Andrews (Scotland) and is
highly regarded by Seabourn.
It goes without saying that I
had my pelican tie as well as a
1961 cap with me (don’t leave
home without ‘em.) The trip that
Mary Jean Gulden and I were on
is called Yachtsman’s Mediter-
ranean. How proud I was to
watch Geoff inform and amuse
a varied audience. Geoff gives
his teachers, Marcia Matthews
and Bill Kellogg, all the credit!”

This from
Richard Schade
:
Kedron Barrett ’79
and I were
SPS faculty children (Kedron’s
father had been my English
teacher), and participated in a
conference at the University of
Cincinnati, reflecting on Ger-
man unification. I spoke on
G
ü
nter Grass’s controversial
take on the unification process,
while Kedron – a longtime
resident of Berlin – showed and
discussed his evocative paint-
ings of the Berlin Wall.”

John Groman
After recuperating froma quin-
tuple coronary bypass surgery in
August, I am on my feet again,
and seriously looking at retire-
ment. I have transferredmyCEO
role to my 19-year partner, and
Cara and I are looking for cou-
ples who want to join us in trav-
el adventures. We will spend
five months at our retirement
cottage at Brays Island Planta-
tion in S.C., six weeks at our lake
camp in Maine, and are looking
to travel up to twomore months
if we can find some travel part-
ners to join us. We are selling
the Dover house and moving to
a condo in fall 2016 in Cohasset,
Mass., so the entire family will
be together in that area.

Bob Coxe

Inger, and her husband, Jared,

reunion. A number of us from
the Formof 1966 are working on
making our 50th a fun, relaxing,

back from you thus far. We
welcome more thoughts and
classmates who want to help
us.

special weekend and, even if you
