Cary Moore Spears writes, “All three of our children are out of college and married. It’s hard to believe—it seems like they all got married at once! Our eldest, Jane, lived in DC for four years after college but now lives in Greenville, SC, with her husband, and we love having at least one of our children close by. Will and his wife are in Boston; Will starts medical school soon. Caroline and her husband live in Dallas.”

Class Captain Susie Davis sends the following news: “We had a wonderful 35th reunion in May with 15 classmates showing up for a boat ride on the Prudence, a former steamship. The group included a first-time reunion-goer, Cathy Levy, who started at GA back in the Lower School but left after seventh grade. Paulette Wunsch could not make it to the reunion, but we will be seeing more of her in Greenwich since she took a job at Visiting Nurse Service of New York as vice president of the health plans. She will be living in town with her 12-year-old daughter while her son is starting college in Miami. Fran Farley Snabes, our class pediatric orthopedic surgeon, tried to make the reunion but was always on call at the emergency room at 54

the University of Michigan. Both Fran and Susan Zabel Brandstetter used to live on Pheasant Lane in Greenwich. I visited Susan a week before the reunion at Fertile, her garden nursery in Chicago. She looks exactly as she did when she was 17!” The Alumnae Office is thrilled to announce that Susie Davis has agreed It was wonderful to see to become our new everyone at our 20th archivist!

School in the city (this year is her 27th!) and is the president of the board of directors of the Watch Hill Lighthouse Keepers Association. Ann’s husband David continues his painting career, and Ann and David find themselves thinking about RI more and more as “home” and not just a vacation destination. Pam Christensen Olney reports that her daughter Emma Olney ’13 finished her first year at Bowdoin, and younger daughter Alexis, a senior at GA, and dad Chip toured college campuses for much of the summer. Pam still adores her role in the business office at GA and says she can’t believe she and Chip are almost empty-nesters! At the other end of the parenting spectrum, Blair Brickman Stuart has her hands full, recently chairing the auction for her girls’ nursery school (a huge job!) and then getting them ready for a summer of GCDS camp fun. Blair’s husband Preston is launching a new food company, Kicking Mule Dark Chocolate Milk. The fall will bring kindergarten applications for the girls. The Stuarts frequently see GA and Brunswick friends at Belle Haven, and last December ran into Elise Hillman Green and her family in Florida. Anne Wallace Juge writes that her daughter Lindsay, a Group VI student at GA, still enjoys riding (a passion she and I share!) and that the family plans to be in Colorado at Christmastime—a chance to see them to which I will greatly look forward! Lucy Strong and her husband John Angelo live about a mile from me in Denver, and we get together frequently. I had the treat of seeing Caroline Schiele Leary, husband Steve, and their gorgeous triplets, as well as Carroll Hanley Goggin during a March surf trip to Florida, a complete delight.
