After graduating with two degrees from the University of Rochester, I taught literature and English skills classes at community colleges, universities, and for the last 14 years, in high schools. Since I’m with high school students all the time, I often think about my high school years and my classmates. I especially think about how different our culture was (and better?). I was devastated 24 years ago when I lost my senior yearbook in a basement flood.

I have three children. My 36-year-old son lives in San Francisco and has a daughter. My older daughter, 32, lives in Providence and has a daughter and a son, and my younger daughter, 21, is a junior at Cornell.

Kenny (class 1962) and I have now been married for over 35 years! In 1980, after living our whole lives in central Jersey (except college) we decided to move to Phoenix so Kenny could become a partner in a financial planning company here. What a change. At the time our three boys were 11, 9 and 4. Our oldest son (32) is now working with Kenny and our youngest (26) who is now with an internet company in London we hope will also be back to work with them at the end of the year. I also work part time for our company. Our middle son (30)lives in Prescott, AZ (@ 1 1/2 hours away). Still waiting for daughters-in-law and especially grandchildren. Think we're actually getting close now. We love it here, but are lucky to do a lot of traveling too. The last few years we've gotten the golf craze and are excited to be planning to build a new home in a beautiful golf community in North Scottsdale. I have lots of other hobbies too and keep VERY busy. I feel so blessed with my family and friends and life!

I graduated from the Univ. of Bridgeport in accounting, but Uncle Sam had other career plans for me - I spent the next 3 years in the Army, one of which was as an infantry platoon leader in Viet-Nam. Needless to say, it was a long and difficult year. After leaving the service, I went to work as an accountant for the U.S. Treasury Dep't. - with the thought of staying a year. Twenty-eight years later I retired. My last position was as Director of Finance for one of the Treasury bureaus (now you probably understand why our country's finances are in the red). I've been happily married to my wife Ellen for over 28 years. Ellen works at the National Cancer Institute as the director of consumer research and evaluation. We have a lovely daughter and a wonderful redheaded grandson, age 4. I currently own an internet company that sells commercial and residentialsecurity equipment. It's a great business and since I run it out of my home there is no commute, no meetings and dress is optional - usually dungarees and a ratty t-shirt. Life is good, I hope you all feel the same.

On the downside, our class lost one of our brightest stars. Leo Lefkowits was killed in a car accident in Europe while visiting his daughter, son-in-law and new grandchild. He was a very special person and I'm sure all of you have very fond memories of him.
