From Kathie:

I heard from Jeff Richards who writes that he enjoys reading our column and offered an update. Jeff had been a chemistry major and worked with Dr. Collier in the Honors Program. He received a Ph.D. in analytical chemistry from the University of Wisconsin at Madison, followed by a thirty-year career with Pfizer Inc., where he led in the development, defense, and launch of more than twenty human and animal health products. “My Moravian experience prepared me very well,” he said. He added that during that time, he and his wife were blessed with two sons, Jasen and Jonathan, and two daughters, Martha and Maryellen, who are now college graduates with their own families. His five grandchildren are Juliet, Samuel, Lincoln, Lillian, and Ivy. His book about great teamwork, The Principles of Teamwork-Radical Empowerment, was recently published by Trafford Press. 

Jeff hoped I would encourage more of you to write … which is certainly nothing new for those of us who meet this deadline throughout the year. One of our classmates asked whether he would get his name in this “society column” after Bethlehem’s Liberty High School Class of 1963 reunion on October 4, when so many of us socialized and danced the night away. I told him “of course you will,” because I always need news. Those attending the reunion along with spouses, significant others, etc., are Moravian classmates Frank Matla, Bob Check, Kerry Beidleman, Syd Goldberg, Gary DeFulvio, Connie Urschitz Gilbert, George Senick ’72 and me.

For me to continue this “society column,” please send news! Also, if one of you would like to take on this endeavor as class correspondent for a retirement project, please let me or Pat Hanna (PHanna@Moravian.edu) know. I would love to take a break after five years!

I want to add that we are ver proud to have seen my daughter Holly's work on the animated film Coraline over the Christmas holiday at a local movie theatre. She worked on the fild over a two year period in Portland, Oregon. She ws teh secon assistant editor and the film received four strs from the reviewers nationally.
