I took a trip to Saipan and neighboring Tinian, which is located in the Commonwealth of the Northern Mariana Islands. It was a great trip to refresh my knowledge of WWII history. My husband Peter heads up his own commercial real estate appraisal firm (Lane Valuation Group) located in Hingham, Massachusetts. Although we are quite busy, we do try to head up to our ski house in northern New Hampshire each weekend for some fresh air and down time. Our children are all doing great! Erica ’09 is a student at St. Lawrence University; Wes is a recent graduate of Georgetown Preparatory School in Bethesda, Maryland; Courtney is a senior at Hingham High School; and Harrison is a student at Deerfield Academy, where he was recently honored with being the only freshman to make the varsity lacrosse team for the 2012 season. I send my very best to all!
and equity capital markets)…whew! I’ve been married 20 years now and have two wonderful children, Conrad (13) and Colette (3). For the last ten years, I’ve been working in capital markets for a multifamily acquisition and development company based out of San Diego. It’s a challenge to balance everything. Would love to see Suffield friends when you are visiting San Diego!
RICHARD MACKENZIE All is well in South Florida with my family. I have two grandchildren— identical twins, Lucas and Dillon—making me a rather young grandfather at age 49. Hopefully they will attend Suffield together in about 15 years. I retired from the sales world and have been traveling throughout North and South America, surfing and snowboarding, while my body can still handle it. I’ve been away from Suffield too long, and I’m going back soon for alumni golf or basketball.

CECIL “JACK” WAY The devastation from Sandy was overwhelmingly brutal. I was deployed to the Rockaways as a member of FEMA’s Community Relations Division helping survivors apply for assistance for most of November out of HQ in Washington, D.C. If possible, please try to help Sandy recovery efforts. It’s going to be a rough road for all of the folks that survived in Connecticut, New York, and New Jersey.

I still keep in touch with Tim Polishook, Serge Arriz, as well as Leslie Sills Reed who lived near me in Dillon, Colorado and had her children go to the same elementary school as my son at Summit Cove Elementary. I currently live in Fort Meyers, Florida, with my wife Teresa Lynn Watkins and my ten-year-old, Jack Thomas Watkins. I coach football for the Gateway Boys Flag Football League. I am a business capital advisor, taking companies public and funding them in the public capital markets. We have lived in Chicago, Denver, and now Florida over the last 25 years. I graduated from the University of Wisconsin–Madison in ’91 then worked at the Chicago Board of Trade and Mercantile Exchanges in the 90s. I worked for an international freight company and then owned and operated a mortgage company. I moved to Denver in 2000 and lived in Dillon, Colorado, where I had fun skiing, fly fishing, hiking, and boating Winter 2013 | 63
