From Bill:
I heard from Chuck Stoltz in May.  He had recent surgery, but is doing well now.  We continue to get emails from him so it sounds like he is back to normal.

Carol and I attended Carol’s 45th class reunion in May.  The turnout was ok, but we could only be there for the luncheon on Saturday.
It was good to see many of ’64 alums and I’m sure more will be written in the 1964 class notes.

Some of Carol’s classmates we saw were: Doug & Marge Wilkins ’64, Lynne Nafash Warnke ’64, Harry Dooley ’64, Gwynne Grey ’64 and Stan Gilbert, Kathy Zanelli Bednar ’64, Andrea Auf der Heyde ’64, Bruce Coull’64, Connie Latchaw Viglione ’64, Linda Garo Olson ’64, Pat Schillinger Hensinger ’64, Sue Miller Erb ’64, Molly Krater Dinneen ’64, Sue Jurman Beecher ’64, Karen Huff Osmun ’64, Judy Morecz Simpson ’64, Kat Cavanaugh ’64.
Everyone looked great and the class picture showed off a youthful group!

I, along with Stosh Gilbert, Harry Dooley and Doug Wilkins attended the OGO Alumni meeting and picture session. There was good representation from many classes.  The current brotherhood seems to be growing and becoming a highly recognized group on campus again.  The Alumni are very supportive.

I received an email note from Gary Sandercock in April.  He is still working.  He owns a company named Cryotech International with about 60 people; there are three domestic locations and one  international location.  He and his wife Donna K. just purchased a 2nd residence in Sun City Texas that is located in Georgetown, Texas.  They will use this home as a vacation get-a-way while Gary is still working.  They plan to relocate there when he retires and purchase a permanent home.  Gary and Don Vogel have agreed to share vacations spots.  The Vogels own a place in Hilton Head, SC.   Sounds like a good arrangement!

I’ve been hearing a lot from Don Vogel in Cincinnati lately. He and wife Joann have spent a lot of time at the doctors, having surgery and recuperating.

Don had leg surgery and was in a cast and brace for quite awhile. Then Joann found out she had a very high level of calcium in her blood. When she went through tests, they determined she had four major blocked arteries and had to have open heart surgery.

While Joann was on the mend, Don decided to have his calcium checked and found his levels were more than twice what Joann had. He thought for sure they would find block arteries and was readying himself for an operation similar to Joann’s. Fate was on his side when Don found that the calcium was distributed throughout his body and not concentrated in his arteries.

At this writing, Carol and I are planning a trip back east in May. We will attend out granddaughter’s high school graduation and also plan to attend Carol’s 45th reunion at Moravian. We look forward to meeting with alumni friends.

From the Alumni House:

Gary Straughan following his administrative terms as President of the Eastern District of the Moravian Church has returned to the pastorate and is serving the East Green Bay Moravian Church.  This will probably be his last assignment before retirement.
