Hi Tom,

Ann alerted me about your call to her. Thank you for your sympathies re Steve. It has been nearly five years but I still miss him very much. Perhaps you can understand that I couldn't bear to come to the reunion but I thank you for your invitation.

Here is a little information for your reunion booklet. Could you send me one? I remember many of you from previous reunions and would like to play "catch-up" even from the Berkshires.

Ann was married in 1996 to Jonathan Silvers, a classmate from college. I will never forget the happiness on Steve's face as he walked her down the aisle. They now live in Scottsdale, AZ and have a darling 2 year old daughter. Another baby is expected in early November. They want to move back to New England as soon as her husband can find a new job. (He is in computers, a plug for him, in case anyone in your class needs a computer maven.)

Clark has a small photo shop in Lenox, here in the Berkshires. He lives with me but is not home very much. He has a very nice girlfriend, but seems to be a confirmed bachelor at least at the moment.

I live on a small farm in Richmond, MA which no one has ever heard of, but is about 10 minutes from Tanglewood, the summer home of the Boston Symphony, and where I work as a volunteer. After our children left home, Steve and I bought a condo in Boston and this farm, as a retirement home. When his estate was finally settled, (it took three years) I moved permanently here. I won't move again until my children put me in the "old-folks home." I spend my time doing a lot of volunteer work for different organizations and taking care of my farm which is pretty much a B&B during the summer. If any of you live near here, or want a Tanglewood week-end, I can be reached at 413-698-2213.

I hope you have a wonderful time at the reunion and say hello to everyone for me. Thanks for tracking me down.

Cheers!

Mary
