Charlie Cox, here in Boston.
Charlie decided to arrive just
hours before a major blizzard
hit and snowed the three of
us into the hospital. The little
guy already has great timing.”
Peter Chan
writes: “The year
2012was a very busy one forme.
I bought my first house in June,
got married in October to my
lovely wife, Meagan, and reno-
vated the house and moved into
it during December. We traveled
to Singapore, Krabi in the south
of Thailand, and Bali, Indonesia,
over two weeks for our honey-
moon. I currently live in San
Mateo, Calif. Today also marks
the five-year anniversary of my
employment at Apple, Inc. in
Cupertino, where I work as a
senior financial analyst. I regret
not being able to attend the 15th
anniversary last year, but I look
forward to attending the 20th
in 2017.”
Sarah Stehli Howell
: “On
January 2, Lucius Sr., Lucius Jr.,
and I welcomed William Hunt
Howell. As of March, sweet
little Hunt is already good
friends with
Farah Kaiksow,
Alex Tilney ’96, Julian Orr ’99
and Nick Yap
. Lucius Sr. has
taken a cardiology fellowship at
UNC-Chapel Hill starting in
July, so we will be saying good-
bye to the Big Easy (for now)
and heading a little closer to
SPS. Please look us up if you’re
in the area.”
Cornelia Van Amburg
re-
ports: “I saw
Clementine
Drackett, Barrett Baer
Braithwaite, Joanna Baker de
Neufville,
and
Jenna Millman
at dinner in NYC. It was a good
time, as usual!”
David Walton
writes: “Our
daughter, Cecilia, was born June
14, 2012, in Los Angeles. She is
very excited to enroll in the
St. Paul’s Form of 2030 and
wants to live in Warren House,
even though it’s a boys’ dorm
now. Her parents hope she
changes her mind once she
understands language and what
the word ‘boy’ means.”
Mike Boyle
says: “Hi, every-
one, I am still living in Thailand
and enjoying the successful
launch of an amazing newweb-
site – www.dharmainc.org. We
are well into some amazing
service projects, and the popu-
larity of our yoga and medita-
tion retreats is on the rise. My
two sons, Rudi, 2
½
, and Finn, 6
months, continue to be my fa-
vorite things about waking up
each day, and life in Thailand is
pretty great. Come visit!”

Ed Pena
submits
this Anniversary update: “Hope
everyone is looking forward to
reunion. It looks like we’ll have
a good group, so if you were on
the fence, get on the bus and
make the commitment.”
From
Tahare Campbell:
“Wow, what an interesting 2012
I had! Had some highs, had some
lows, but in the end, it was a
great year. Let’s see: 1) I still
can’t accept that playing bas-
ketball is
not
inmy wheelhouse,
so I give it one more go and
end up rupturing my Achilles:
stuck at home for two months
and just starting to jog again.
2) Because I’m off my feet for
two months, I can’t do much
exercising: let’s just say I put on
a few pounds . . . moving on. . . .
3) I finally take a visit to the
West Coast by going to SanFran
for a week, and then to Wash.,
D.C., having a fantastic time
with my wife and daughter –
priceless! Can’t wait to see
everyone at Anniversary!”
Pharon Thomas Dinstein
announces this family news: “I
am married with a newborn
daughter, Severine Dinstein.
Russell and I can’t wait to show
her the School this June when
we come up for Anniversary
Weekend.
