workers, and physicians. They
then coach parents on how to
make happier families. The
program is designed, in part, as
a public health program, with
the goal to reduce child abuse,
foster care placements, and
child injuries from domestic
situations. It’s a nice follow up
to a career in mental health and
family therapy. I have become
an avid musician in the past 10
years and have been with two
bands for four years. One is an
Irish folk group called the
Dev-
illy Brothers
(no actual brothers
here), and we play regularly at
a local brew pub and for wed-
dings and private parties. The
other is a gypsy jazz and swing
jazz group called the
Heebie
Jeebies
(music tomake your skin
crawl), and we play for wineries,
restaurants, city events, and
pubs as well. I’m on the double
bass, so there are always people
to play with. My wife, Rommie,
and I have been married for
34 years. She’s retired from
nursing and has become an
exquisite quilter. Ian, our son, is
working in a wilderness therapy
program in Oregon. Marie, our
daughter, works at polar science
camps in Greenland.”
Jeff Wheelwright
sent the
following update: “I made two
backpack trips with friends and
one solo in September. I hiked to
the Second Recess in the Mono
Creek drainage of the Sierras,
wherein I sprained my ankle.
Still, I had a great time. I’ve been
trying to get
David Martin
to come out to the Sierras. At
the reunion,
Roy Farwell
was
enthused about Sierra hiking. I
will lead a backpack trip for our
75th reunion.”

My son, Avery, received many
hundreds of “likes” on Facebook
after posting a photo of me from
the Woodstock music festival
in 1969 with
Steve Lievens
wearing a motorcycle helmet
and
Bill Lane
with his tongue
out, Rolling Stones style. Special
thanks to our class archivist,
Tom Iglehart
, for sending me
the photo and for taking it years
ago. I am still skiing moguls like
a younger man, but much more
careful since I tore my ACL not
being careful a couple of years
ago. Happily enjoying the empty
nest withmy 37-year partner in
life and a new solo office space,
