John Dresser Etna, N.H. dresserdmd@myfairpoint.net Dr. Robert McClellan Kisabeth Jr. was honored by the Cocke County Education Foundation in March, at the annual Celebrate Our Successes banquet at Carson Springs Conference Center. The yearly banquet serves as both a fundraiser for the foundation and as a way to bring attention to the many alumni of Cocke County’s schools who have achieved outstanding successes in their fields. Robert graduated from Cocke County (Tenn.) High School in 1964 as salutatorian of his class. Dave Hourigan retired two years ago as a principal in the Milford, Conn. school system, and now lives fulltime in North Port, Fla. Dave reports that he plays a lot of golf and has also started dabbling in bridge and pinochle. Dave is a five-time grandpa. He gets back to most ReUnions, and keeps in touch with John Astriab and Bill Priscott on a fairly regular basis.

Wayne Ugolik writes, “After 33 years with the New York State Department of Transportation, I retired in September 2010. Following graduate school and a stint in the U.S. Army, I began my career at NYSDOT in 1977 as a senior mathematician in the Albany main office. I transferred to the Long Island regional office in 1991 to serve as its first travel demand manager, and was responsible for developing and implementing programs to advance New York State’s first and only suburban highoccupancy-vehicle lanes. These now operate along 40 miles of the Long Island Expressway within Nassau and Suffolk counties. I also led numerous innovative efforts to engage the general public in NYSDOT’s planning efforts on Long Island, including live television and online surveys. In 2003, I was promoted to director of regional planning and program management for Long Island. I was fortunate to be able to publish several papers with the Transportation Research Board of the National Research Council and to mentor others to do likewise. Currently, I enjoy retirement and volunteer at an emergency food pantry that helps people in need.” Dr. Daniel Z. Aronzon writes, “I recently retired as president and CEO of Vassar Brothers Medical Center and will be enjoying time with Nancy, daughters and grandchildren, working with local not-for-

profits, golf, travel and all the benefits of the beautiful Hudson Valley. Recently, the medical center’s board honored me by naming the new $66 million dollar addition, the Daniel Z. Aronzon M.D. Center for Ambulatory Surgery.”

Frank Donnini 239 Rushlake Ct. Newport News, Va. 23602-6348 fpdonnini@aol.com John Duffy writes, “We continue to split our time between Manhattan, the Smithfield Valley in Dutchess County, and Hutchinson Island, Fla. I am working parttime as a risk consultant, but spending at least as much time examining systemic risks, such as rogue finance, resource depletion, environmental degradation and sovereign collapse. My wife, Maxine, just completed another thriller with Jim Patterson, which went to number one on the New York Times bestseller list. My son, Brendan ’15, will start his sophomore year at Union in September. He is majoring in psychology and working this summer as an intern in the neurology department at Mount Sinai Hospital in New York.”
