ended up in Quissett Harbor,
where my family has had a
house for years. It was an awe-
some day and fun to meet up
with some SPS friends. Anyone
want to join us next year?
Kira Higgs
has wedding
news: “It’s high time I shared
official word about Terry’s and
my wedding on Bastille Day. So
delighted that
Suzanne Craw-
ford ’76
and her husband, Joe,
could make the trip. Her read-
ing helped launch the small
ceremony here in Portland. We
got additional lift from pelican
sisters the world over, who did a
virtual toast the morning of July
14. Another chapter begins.”

sends this
news: “Hard to believe I’m ap-
proaching 10 years at Habitat
for Humanity. But other than
too many miles flown, I love
the work and we’ve been very
happy in Atlanta. I’ve recent-
ly been elected to the board
of the Federal Reserve Bank
of Atlanta and the Stanford
Business School Management
Board. Hoping to make our 35th
reunion.”

lunch with DocMarshall on De-
cember 31 in Barcelona. It was
great to see him. I have parked
my wife and one-year-old here
while I go back-and-forth to
Sierra Leone and places like
Tajikistan. Doc was intent on
teaching my son the nuances of
the Ancient GreekMiddle Voice,
and I was confronted with the
fact that I can barely remember
how to conjugate a Latin verb
in the present tense. I was,
though, able to teach Doc how
to say some rather salty things
in Spanish if a cab driver tries
to rip him off.”

An update from
Barksdale
Maynard
: “I have a new book
that has beenpublished,
Brandy-
wine
. I have also written a book
on the architecture of Princeton
University that includes men-
tion of the importance of the
SPS Chapel in the history of
American architecture. Also a
biography of Woodrow Wilson
that discusses his infamous SPS
speech, where he blasted the
American educational system.
Find me on Amazon.”

I’m writing this in January,
while many people are tromp-
ing through snow, scraping ice,
dealing with wintry mix, and
generally enduring the coldest
months of the year. Luckily, I
am not one of them – that’s the
beauty of living in California.
I was very pleased to get an
update from
Christine Ball
Fearey
: “Where does the time
go? My husband, Peter, and I
just celebrated our 20th wed-
ding anniversary. We have been
living happily in Sudbury, Mass.,
for over 15 years with our two
daughters and two dogs. Our
eldest, Meg, just started SPS
as a Fourth Former this fall. I
continue to teach first grade and
love going to work every day.
Life is great!” Keep your form-
mates up to date by sending
me your news any time. A very
happy winter to all, whether you
are snowed in or not.

Jeffrey Townsend
shares some
clinical research done by his
team at Yale: “Just published
in the journal
Clinical Infec-
tious Diseases
, is getting press,
and was first page in
The New
York Times
. The interesting
part is that at the end of my
conversation with the reporter,
Donald McNeil, I told him con-
versationally an anecdote about
my time at St. Paul’s, about
a lesson we learned there in
which a teacher was “arrested”
by surprise during an X-block
presentation. The arrest wasn’t
real, but students then filled
out surveys on what they per-
ceived. Anyway, the anecdote
turned out as the closing riff
of the article (though he un-
fortunately left out the school
name). Just thought this might
be of interest.”
