my old pal Jon Constable! This was only after running into most of his family and discovering that his brother and my cousin are old buddies. I was in full on Movember mode at the time, and my fundraising moustache was in full stride (see picture). Speaking of which, I convinced Finny Akers to join my Movember team this time around, and our team (Mo Means Yes) raised almost $7,000 for prostate cancer research! Thanks Finny! Sorry for that sidebar, now back to the Constable update…We didn’t get to see each other very long, but it was so great to catch up with him! In another small-world, EHS kind of thing, it turns out that Catherine Cay Dreese ’96 lives in Monkton as well, about a block away from my cousin (block is a bit of a stretch here. Monkton is in the country, and they don’t have blocks so much as they have fences between farms). Anyway, I enjoyed discovering that and connecting Catherine with my family up there. Also, I couldn’t let Joe Segrave be the only one of us to get a little Bennett White time in. Bennett was in Raleigh recently for a work trip, and we managed to get together for dinner and a few beers. It was great to see my old roommate and briefly discuss how much I embarrassed both of us during my toast at his rehearsal dinner several years ago. He now has three boys at home and works his tail off. He’s quite happy about all of it though! Raleigh has a great group of alumni, and in addition to seeing a lot of classmate Scott Harris, I work with Paul Elam ’87, John Pace ’77, and B. Reeves ’95, and see a decent bit of David Stallings ’93, Chip Edwards ’95, and Bonner Mann ’93 as well. It’s debatable whether or not any of you know any of those guys, but they deserve an alumni mag shout-out nonetheless. It’s not their fault you don’t know any of them. That’s it folks! Stay in touch via email, Facebook, Pony Express, or messenger pigeon. I enjoy hearing updates from everyone, however mundane you think they may be! Start the countdown for Reunion number 20 coming up in 2017!

Our 15th Reunion is fast approaching so make sure to mark it on your calendars and please update your email addresses with the Alumni Office! George Gummere and I have been busily planning activities and dinners for Reunion Weekend, and we hope to have a great turnout. As far as our class goes, it was fun to hear from Sarah Culvahouse Mills, who writes that Megan Punches Malone, sister of Richard Punches ’96, is expecting her first child this year. Sarah also mentioned that she won some tickets to a Robert Earl Keen concert and has suggested we all take an overnight and attend. Elly Palmer writes, “I started as the clinical manager of a thoracic and cardiovascular intermediate care unit at Georgetown University Hospital in July. I’ve loved seeing Lindsay Whittle Comstock ’99 around the hospital while she has been in nursing school at Georgetown.” Elly and Sarah will both be at the Reunion this spring. Also, I heard from Andrew Grobmyer, who we will also see at Reunion. He writes, “I got married in December to Suzanne Delao of Fayetteville, Ark. We are currently living and working in Little Rock, and we look forward to seeing everyone at the
Class of 1998’s 15th Reunion at EHS. We will both be there. It will be great to catch up with everyone and spend some time in DMV. Maroon, Black, Orange, Slack!” Alden and Rob Watts and their two sons, Chip (3 ½) and Pete (2), live in Norfolk, where he is serving as operations officer on the USS Monterey. Unfortunately, he will be on deployment during the Reunion. As for me, I am living in Orange, Va. My husband, Harrison Stuart (big brother of Sandy Stuart ’00), is director of admissions at Woodberry, and we have two little boys, Teddy and Jack. Looking forward to seeing you all this June!

Greetings from the Class of 2000! I have to start out by apologizing for dropping the ball in sending in the notes for the last iteration of the magazine. It won’t happen again and hopefully our track record over the last 12 years speaks for itself! It seems that things are well with everyone and we have officially hit our late 20s/early 30s as this rendition
