3. She is a blast. We are expecting our second child this summer, when Lucy will be taking time off from her law firm. My architecture practice in Chicago continues to grow with fun clients and projects across the country. There is lots of travel, but it’s well worth it. We’re building our own house in Lincoln Park, which was planned to be completed before the baby arrives. It’s not the first deadline I’ll miss.…’ Matt Murray is back in Chicago after spending a few years abroad with his family in Shanghai. Nim Shah writes, ‘It was so great seeing everyone at reunion. I can’t believe it’s been 20 years! In any case, there have been some big news items on my front. For one, I was promoted to partner at my firm, Domain Associates. We’re a healthcare venture firm. I love my job and this only makes it better. If that wasn’t big enough news, I have an even bigger partnership in my future. I proposed to Anne Severtson, who joined me at reunion. She said ‘yes!’ Needless to say, life is good.’

Annie Stephenson Murphy 415-377-4466 annie_stephenson@yahoo.com Annie Stephenson Murphy writes, “Believe it or not, we are just beginning the countdown to our 20th Reunion coming up in spring 2014. How did that happen? I, for one, can’t wait to get the old crew back together to celebrate! I hope my fellow classmates will make the effort to get back to Dedham to laugh about the old times and
make new connections now that we’re all grown up (sort of).” Monica Ramirez reports, “I am so happy to share that I am getting married to Matthew Curtis (Belmont Hill ’83) this summer. I am also starting a new job as an editor at UpToDate (a medical information resource) and continuing as a rheumatologist at the Brigham and Women’s Hospital. I look forward to seeing people at our upcoming reunion.” Matt Glassman has just returned from touring with his theatre company, Double Edge, throughout Russia and Norway, and is busy hunkering down for the annual outdoor summer show this year based on Arabian Nights. And on a personal note, “Nicolas [his son] has gotten his learner’s permit! Oy!” And from Austin, Texas, SaraMai Conway is proud to announce, “Resolute Fitness: Cycling & Yoga is a business I started early this year, and we’ll open our second Austin location in August. Very exciting! I’m off to Ireland this summer and will be stopping for one day in Boston on my way. Other travels include heading to Idaho in June to cheer for my sister Hilary ’97, who will be competing in her first Ironman Triathlon. I’ll be waiting with a beer at the finish line. If anyone is ever swinging through Austin, look me up!” Lawson Allen Albright is keeping herself busy chasing after her vivacious son, Nate (2), who’s already had a couple of trips to the ER with some bumps and bruises, and her daughter, Sage (6), who is just wrapping up a big year in kindergarten. Sadly, they recently lost their beloved Monty, a black
lab that Lawson and her husband, Lars, adopted when they lived in Vermont. This leaves Griz, their 9-year-old black lab, living large as the big cheese of the house. Annie Stephenson Murphy adds, “And I can’t wait to make it to the East Coast this summer for two weeks on the Cape with my son, Callum (1), my daughter, Ava (4), and my husband, Taylor. We’ll be celebrating Cal’s baptism with his godmother, Lisa Zeytoonjian Glenn, and her family and hope to have a chance to see some other Nobles folks while we’re within striking distance. Can’t wait until next June for the 20th Reunion!”
