NEWS OF 1975
From the Alumni House:
The experiences of Charlotte Liptak and her husband, Bob Kuhn, on September
11, 2001, caused them to rethink everything about their lives, she writes. Charlotte, an
attorney for life insurance firms, was in the office of a client on Wall Street when the
planes hit the World Trade Center; and Bob was at home on their boat, SarahSong, a 60-foot
steel trawler, which is docked in Washington, D.C., and saw the explosion at the Pentagon.
Charlotte decided to leave her job so they could spend their time cruising on SarahSong.
Starting in February 2002, they proceeded down the Chesapeake Bay and the Intracoastal
Waterway, crossed Florida by the Okeechobee Waterway, and got to New Orleans for Mardi
Gras 2003. She says they stop where they please and work or visit family and friends. After
a fall stopover for boat maintenance in Galveston, they plan to continue on their unscheduled
way.

Reunion May 21-22, 2004
From Caroline Funk Rabold:
Hello, dear classmates! It
is with great pleasure that I accept the position of class correspondent for the Class
of ’69. But it has been a long time since we’ve had much news from anyone.
I want to encourage you to let us know what you’ve been up to. What’s old
news to you might be new to us. Please write or e-mail me about your career, travels,
family, education, etc.
This past March, five of our classmates traveled to Hilton Head, S.C., for a week-long
reunion: Dana Burt Donaldson, Ann Egolf Peterson, Linda
Evans Shotkus, Martha Poole, and myself. We walked on the beach,
cooked, and saw the sights of Savannah, just a short drive away.
Dana and her husband, John, recently moved from Connecticut where they raised two sons,
James, 29, and Tim, 27. Dana works out of her home studio as a semi-retired interior designer.
She has built and decorated a beautiful retirement home in Warren, Vt., where she and John
love to downhill and cross-country ski.
Ann lives in Shawano, Wis., with her husband, Duane, and works for the Wisconsin State
Department of Commerce. She has three children, Joseph, 30, Robyn, 28, and John, 25. When
not traveling in her motor home, she sews for two granddaughters: Meredith, 2, and Maggie,
6 months.
Linda recently relocated to Weston, Mass., with her husband, Stan, and daughter Jenni,
14. Linda owns Potpourri Designs, a small specialty chain of seven stores in Massachusetts
and Connecticut, that feature women’s apparel. She is also involved in e-commerce.
Her website is www.lynevans.com. When not involved in her business, she can be
found in her garden or at Moravian, where she and Jim Hutchinson are members
of the Board of Trustees.
Martha is winding down a long career in commercial real estate in Virginia. She and her
husband, Rick Cawthorne, have moved to Wilmington, N.C., where she is remodeling their
new home. She plans to go back to school!
As for me, I’ve been living in Stroudsburg with my husband, Jay, for the past 30
years. We have three daughters, Jennifer, 33, Kimberly, 27, and Lindsey, 25. I love working
in our county library, gardening, traveling, and spending time with my grandsons, Jackson
and Clayton, both 2 years old.
Nancy Glassmoyer Brittingham and her husband, Stan, live in Haddam, Conn.
After many years of teaching elementary school, Nancy has become a principal. She also
is a competitive ice-skater. I’ve seen her on video and she is wonderful! Her twins,
Lindsey and Richie, recently graduated from college.
Betty Lee Ashmore owns and operates a used bookstore in San Diego, Calif.
She is considering moving back to Pennsylvania.
If any of you has not registered an e-mail address with the college or updated an old one,
please do so. And keep the news coming!
NEWS OF 1968
From the Alumni House:
We received this letter from Roger Williams:
“ As of this writing, the Class of ’68 appears to be alive and well. I am the unfortunate
one who was not able to attend our 35th reunion and catch up with everyone brave enough to attend. Bob
Bilse was generous enough to allow his unlimited weekend minutes to be used to call me. They
passed his phone around the table.
“ Last summer, when I began writing this little piece of nostalgia, Jimmy Buffett was in the background
with the sun bouncing off the waves of Monterey Bay.
“ Bob and I and Kent Hollinger gathered with our wives, Buffy, Muffy, and Dakota,
at my company compound on the beach in Monterey for a glorious week of wine-tasting, seafood consumption,
and cooking with tequila. Nothing really does change among friends.
“ Days began with misty sunrises over the artichoke fields of Castroville, and evenings started
with toasting the golden sunsets descending into the bay. We spent our days taking in the wonders of
the peninsula, highlighted by the Monterey Aquarium, 17-Mile Drive at Pebble Beach, the Steinbeck Museum
in Salinas, Phil’s at Moss Landing, Bob’s attempt to talk his way into his old military base,
and the ambrosia burgers at Nepenthe in Big Sur.”
