JANE CONVERSE MILLER: 2017 was a year of changes for my family and me. I will soon be moving from my house into a condominium and I have changed publishing companies — from Pearson to McGraw-Hill where I will work as a consultant, in-servicing teachers and doing presentations. Daughter Emily is still in the Buffalo, NY area with her two girls, 14 and 10. Daughter Ashley and her husband are still in Connecticut with a six-year-old, threeyear-old and a new little boy on the way in January. Busy year!

NANCY GERRY STOGSDILL: Still living in South Carolina, working as a bookkeeper for six different individuals/businesses and loving it. Have children and their families in Charleston and Greenville, so love visiting them as often as work allows. My youngest turned 30! Can’t believe it.

BROOKE CHAMBERLAIN COOK: How wonderful it was to gather at Foxcroft last April for our 50th reunion. I enjoyed every single second. How did time pass so quickly? 50 years? Since then, husband Jeff and I celebrated our 35th anniversary in May with a near month-long trip to Italy (Trieste, Puglia and Campagna), and a good part of our visit was spent in Naples and environs. It was terrific. I have been studying Italian for a few years and had many opportunities on our trip to converse with the locals. This past fall, I audited three courses, two at Boston University (one on Dante’s “Inferno” and one on the writings of Primo Levi) and one at Wellesley College (on Italian history from 476AD to Italian unification in 1861). I am continuing Italian studies at Wellesley College this term, which gives me the opportunity to stay exposed to the language —and to spend time with the younger generation. As many of you know, we lost daughter Sarah (age 41) two years ago this March to adult onset asthma. She left behind a loving husband and four wonderful grandchildren now ages 11 to 21. Over the past two years, we have come to terms with life without Sarah, with the help of her husband, Antonio, who is doing an amazing job as a single father. Oldest granddaughter Karina Rosa is now a junior at Northeastern’s School of Nursing, a member of the University’s Senate and the RA of her dorm. Sarina (17) and Antonio Jr. (15) are at Brookline High School and Christina (11) is in Grade 5 at our local elementary school. They are a close and loving family.
