classnotes where she has served for the past 15 years as assistant dean for international programs at Indiana University Maurer School of Law, traveling all over the world and the country (she attended Indiana University for graduate school). She recently saw Jenny Freeland in Sacramento, Calif. and Anna Allen and her daughter, Leontyne, in NYC. Lesley and her husband, Matt Murphy, have a 12-year-old son, Paul. If you’re ever in the lower Midwest, look her up! Charley Case lives in Aspen, Colo., with his wife of 10 years, Toni, and their daughter Charlotte, 7. As many in our class have, he moved past the mid-century mark in May. He says he’d love to connect with anyone who makes it out to Colorado!

It was another impressive showing by the Class of 1988 for our 30th Reunion! The weekend started off with the individual induction of Ron Anderson and team induction of the 1987 Field Hockey Team into the Athletic Hall of Fame. Although I was disappointed that I missed them and my sister Carmina Valle ’93 being inducted, I was pleased that other classmates were able to show their support. Brad Dwin organized an informal meet up later in the evening that drew classmates and former members of the class. Saturday’s events were capped off by another wonderful party hosted by Jennifer and Burck Smith, and organized with the help of Marshall and Anne Friedlander Henslee, and Heidi and Dan Moylan. By my count, 37 of our graduating class members plus a few more former class members made an appearance at some point during the weekend’s festivities. Others had planned on making their way back to North Charles Street for the weekend but weren’t able to manage with schedule conflicts. Maureen Sullivan wrote, “I’m truly sorry that I won’t be able to attend the Reunion this weekend...I wish everyone well and a happy Reunion!” She is in the final months completing her family medicine residency in Utica, N.Y. “This has been a wonderful
experience beyond words. Until recently, Utica was one of the largest refugee resettlement sites in the U.S. It is a privilege to serve people from all over the world who have endured so much.” Maureen has been in Utica for about three years. “For fun, when I had some free time, I biked along the Erie Canal, hiked and biked in the Adirondack Mountains, and swam at Colgate University. As I progressed in the program, I became joined at the hip to our computers for the constant work in the EMR/EHR world. So much for free time...If anyone can create a computer program that is efficient, safe, and useful for providers and patients, we would be overjoyed to have a new option so that we can look at our patients during office visits again.” It’s good to know Maureen has been enjoying the area. “Utica is a neat place. I like the town slogan: ‘Utica...starts with you.’” Christianne Myers also wished she could have made it to Reunion and wrote, “For anyone who remembers drawing on the walls at my 16th birthday party, my dad just sold the house in Bolton Hill. One of the chalk murals is still behind a mantel piece for someone to find in the years to come. We are well in Ann Arbor. If anyone is taking their kids on college tours and Michigan is on the short list, please say ‘Hi.’”

After 26 years living in Durango, Colo., San Francisco, and Columbus, Drew Curlett is back in town living in Fells Point with his Pomeranian named Penny. He teaches in the culinary arts program at Stratford University. Welcome back, Drew! Jamie Skeen Schumann-Dahlberg reports that her youngest daughter is almost 5-years-old and her oldest daughter just finished nursing school. Jamie is hoping to start graduate school this fall in a psychiatric nurse practitioner program. Shana Ketron-Yacht says that she was crazy enough to have babies past 40. Her twin boys are 17-months-old and she loves being a mom. She and her family are preparing to leave Canton for Howard County to enjoy a little more space. Sarah Taylor and her family are moving from Georgia to Colorado Springs. She got out of the army two years ago, but her husband is still in, and they are relocating them there. Their kids are ages 4, 7, and 10. Carla Perry Paisley’s kids have quite a lot going on. Her 19 and 17-year-old toured Europe last summer together,
visiting Paris, Le Mans, London, Madrid and Segovia. This summer, her son Ezra, 14, joined Colorado Ballet for a five-week intensive under instructors from American Ballet Theater. Xavier, 17, will spend five weeks in Connecticut studying ballet at the Nutmeg Conservatory in preparation for an audition season that will include Alvin Ailey next year. Daughter Seraphine will study for five weeks at Maryland Youth Ballet in Silver Spring, Md., and her youngest will audition for the pre-professional company that her siblings have been a part of. Her oldest, Aaron, transfers to University of Maryland at College Park as a junior this fall, and Carla starts nursing school in August. Arsh Mirmiran and his wife and young daughters have just moved into a house they had built on Blythewood Road in Roland Park. I’m guessing that he now lives closest to campus, but someone can correct me if I’m wrong. Elizabeth Shaum Delfosse finished her first year of nursing at University of Maryland on the Surgical Acute Unit. There’s never a dull moment and she’s generally “nurse tired” at the end of the day, but she loves it. Her son Aidan is 15
