where I first learned to play and love the game from Tom Yankus ’52, the coach who taught me! I have coached lots of youth soccer and basketball for my four children over the years but this is very different, lots of fun, and full of challenges. I encourage anyone who has a chance to coach the older kids to give it a try. Plus, it is fun to be part of the high school where my kids go to school. I did coach the Dartmouth Men’s Club VB team while I was at Tuck, and then I was the Assistant Coach at MIT for a few years too, which helped prepare me.”

’81 Julia Lee Barclay-Morton has been researching and writing The Amazing True Imaginary Autobiography of Dick and Jani for the past three years. This book traces the lives of her grandmothers, both born in 1916 (before women had the right to vote), but who cut two very different paths through their lives. She says, “Dick was, on the surface, a one-
dimensional, frustrated housewife (who was anything but), whereas Jani rebelled loudly against the conventions of marriage and motherhood yet never stopped trying to find love, even after she crashed out of her third marriage on her way to becoming a feminist teacher in the 1970s.” Check it out on Facebook (www.facebook.com/autobioofdickandjani) and Twitter (twitter.com/wilhelminapitfa)

Ed Harney writes, “Members of the Class of 1982 held a joint 50th birthday celebration in NYC. We dearly missed all of you who were unable to attend; of course, this means we engaged in liberal storytelling at your expense … So, for our 35th reunion in 2017, come back and defend yourselves!” Congratulations to Dave “Hollywood” McWhirter, who is directing/ producing a prime-time TV series. Dave and Barry Sheridan attended Thursday night cocktails in New York City in May. Shout out to Barry’s daughter, Nina ’14, who will attend Princeton in the fall of 2015 after a gap year. And Ariana Gelwicks, Christine Gelwicks’ daughter, was also on the Choate Rosemary Hall 2014 list of graduates; she is heading to George Washington University in Washington, D.C., in the fall.
’83 J.T. Beatty lives in rural Wisconsin where he runs a small business that specializes in Black Locust products, some of which his East Coast classmates may have already experienced, especially if they have been to the New York Botanical Garden’s new Native Plant Garden boardwalk. J.T. invites anyone who happens through the Driftless Region of southwestern Wisconsin to stop by for a visit.
’84 Rebecca Kotch writes, “After 12 years of Los Angeles city life, I have been happily living in the countryside of Napa, Calif., working in the food, wine, and cycling worlds. Serious cyclists (or not), feel free to contact me about riding in the wine country, or sign up for my event at www.bottegagranfondo.com. I remain in touch with Katie Benenson Marcus, Duke Stump, and Kevin Kassover ’87, and I think about my dear Choate friend Christine Heath, who is no longer here with us.” ’92
Jessica Rabe Savage and Will Savage recently celebrated their tenth wedding anniversary and the second anniversary of their move from Baltimore to Boston. Jessica says that Will hasn’t matured a bit since high school. Their two daughters, Emily (9) and Sally (7), agree. Nevertheless, Jessica and Will manage to keep the peace during their daily commute together to Brigham and Women’s Hospital, where Jess is an allergist researching food allergies and Will works in transfusion medicine studying allergies to blood transfusion.
