GREG EGGERT B.S. from Ohio State University, M.S. from University of Southern California, System Management, MBA from Kennesaw State University: Beta Gamma Sigma, Phi Kappa Rho. CHRIS FROST Still working, but enjoying trips to Marco Island, Florida, when I can get away. JOHN SCOTT I am still practicing law in San Francisco. Maybe I will learn how to do it before I hit 70. Stay tuned for a case in Denver against one of the Koch brothers: Martensen v. Koch.
1967 CLASS AGENT Chris Harlambakis SCOTT SCHROEDER Not much to report on my end. Hard learned lesson #418 (this year, so far): Avoid sending your children to a college with a nationally-ranked football team. As the season progresses and the team (FSU in this case) wins more and more games, your child will require more financial support (parties are suspected) and her grades will decline. Younger daughter thus advised she must go to a college that has not had a winning season in at least 10 years. I also discovered this past winter that a conspiracy exists between New England ski area operators and Florida real estate agents. They have discovered a way to keep the Northeast constantly snowing, while maintaining warm/beautiful days in Florida. Hope all is well with the Class of ’67. RICK ZWIRN At the annual County Bar Association Law Day Luncheon, the law firm of Zwirn and Zwirn was recognized and awarded a plaque which reads: The Cayuga County Bar Association wishes to congratulate Zwirn and Zwirn on 75 years of Law Practice Excellence, honorably serving Cayuga County. April 17, 1939 - April 17, 2014.
1968 CLASS AGENTS Tyler Bumsted Bob Morris PATRICK SMITH Last year was a big one on this end. I brought out my fifth book, Time No Longer: Americans After the American Century, with Yale University Press. Modest sales so far, but it will find its way. And don’t misread the title; I’m not a declinist; stepping back from our primacy will do Americans much good, providing they manage it with imagination and grace (which remains to be seen). I’m now on a new book and continue my weekly columns of commentary. Last year was also my last as a wanderer among borrowed houses and boarding houses. I have resettled in Norfolk, Connecticut, after some 64

years’ absence, putting me 35 miles or so from Suffield.
1969 CLASS AGENT Greg Putnam LUIS GONZALEZ I graduated from the University of Puerto Rico School of Pharmacy, and I am actually a registered pharmacist working for CVS. I am a former McDonalds owner/operator and I have a daughter, three sons, and three grandchildren. STEVE KLESCZEWSKI One of my most memorable moments at Suffield was winning the WNEPSSA Cup in 1967-68, and Ken Lindfors comes to mind as someone who made a difference for me. I am married and have two children and work as a realtor for Intero Real Estate. I would love to see Dave Wenc, Frank Siver, and Dave Osowiecki again. PETER MORSE I am hoping to make it to the Reunion this October, and hope Archer Mayor and Tom Peck will make it as well. I am an optometrist, and have two children, Alison (30) and Andrew (24). Some of my best Suffield memories are the Cicero Latins and Richard Clark saying, “Lally! Render it!” Hope everyone from the Class of 1969 is doing well! JIM NANGLE My wife Melanie and I have two children, Brendan (Bates ’06, NYU Stern ’13) and Colin (Middlebury ’10, Tuck or Fuqua ’16). I am now retired, having worked at Chase for 19 years. We sold our home in Westport, Connecticut, in 2013, and embarked on a long held journey to return to the Lake Tahoe area of California. We drove cross-country in February. It was our first time, which was very interesting. We are building a home in Truckee and are renting a house nearby for the construction period. We hope to be in the home in late summer/early fall. I have many memories of my time at Suffield and would love to see classmate Donald Perry Lee. Feel free to email me at nangle.james@gmail.com
employed me for 21 years. Time seems to be flying by very quickly. Justina and I are looking forward to the day when I can retire and we can get on with the next phase of our lives. We want to purchase a motor home, do some extensive travel around the United States, and become snowbirds for as long as we stay healthy and the money lasts. Good luck to all my former classmates and all the students past and present at Suffield. DAVID SPERRY One of my best Suffield memories had to be while I was on the tennis team with Mr. Beams, Charlie Thomas ’68, Carl Oehrig ’71, et al. I am now retired from the health care administration field. My son Brett is a medical doctor, and my daughter Jenna is a registered nurse. I’m hoping to see Flip Bodine and Greg Putnam at Reunion in October. Best to the Class of 1969. SCOTT STILWELL Life is busy! My two boys are in college. My wife and I are still working, but having fun. Hope to see many classmates at our 45th Reunion!
1971 CLASS AGENTS Pierre Genvert Leo Letendre Doug Rebert RICHARD WEIL Paul Loether and I were roommates at Suffield for two years. We graduated in ’71 and have remained good friends for over 44 years. Our love for music was nurtured by our incredible teacher and mentor, Brad Gooch. He brilliantly conducted the glee club and smaller singing group, the COGS. Paul and I loved to sing and play guitar, so we formed a jug band with Paul, also playing a real wash tub bass, with upside down galvanized wash tub, broomstick, and bass string! Starting out as another way to meet girls, other than the occasional dance at our all-boys school, the glee club and COGS offered an opportunity to travel outside of Suffield. Fast forward 40 years and Paul
GREG PUTNAM As I prepare the mailings to my classmates, a continuous stream of memories flow across my mind. Each classmate elicits a specific memory, something that I remember about them way back when. I guess 45 years is not long enough to forget. It just goes to show how special a group these guys were and still are. And once more, I’m empowered as their Class Agent with enthusiasm and dedication. They do make this job fun. Thanks, guys!
