seeing everyone again. Sondra is married to Steve Vastine ’76, and both were able to come see me later this summer for 10 days of fly fishing and partying during Butte’s famous EVEL KNIEVEL DAYS. This included a huge ‘Jim Kephart Bash,’ complete with belly dancers, fire eaters, bed of nails, and LOTS of musicians, for Sondra’s XXth birthday….plus a night partying with ‘Dueling Pianos’ from Las Vegas. Lots of fun! I am on several boards here, including the vestry of our Episcopalian church. Getting back to my roots there has meant a great deal.”

Save the Date 40th Reunion May 2 & 3, 2014

Jeff Morrison reports: “My daughter, Kerri, and husband, Chris, gave us our second grandchild, Emma Deering, on September 3, 2013, day after ‘Labor Day’! God is so good!” Alec Andrews reports: “Both of my kids are through college and grad school, and working in the entertainment industry in LA. A long way from Ohio. Definitely considering the 40th

reunion. It’s been so many years since I’ve seen many of my classmates, I’ll be relying on the ‘Hello. I’m ____’ name tags!”

Clark Stull ’75 and family.

1975 Class Agent: Jim Cooke Clark Stull says: “After several years in Florida, I am local again. Above is a picture of the wonderful family God has granted to me. Beside wife, Beth, the daughters are Devon, age 26, residing in Charlotte, NC; Carrie, age 23, student at Temple Medical School; Alisha, age 20, sophomore at PSU; and Jessica, age 17, high school senior. The shot was taken last summer at Swarthmore College. I am still teaching these days, now in my 27th year of training and shaping the minds of HS youth. Have written a book based on my doctoral dissertation titled Erosion of Education in America, for which I am currently contacting publishers. Enjoyed watching the US Open at Merion this past June.” Jay Snider reports: “Last December, I acquired Airsoft Megastore, one of the leading online retailers of all things airsoft (www.airsoftmegastore. com). Classmate Brian Tierney invested with me. We are busy innovating in this industry and have ambitions to expand into new areas of e-commerce, as well to expand the use of airsoft guns for police and military training. I continue to live happily in Los Angeles with Terry, married 31 years now. Son, Jamie, lives in Venice Beach, will be getting married in June 2014. Son, Cody, lives with his girlfriend in Manhattan and works developing our police and military division, and son, Todd, is a freshman at UPenn.”

Drew Schaefer ’76 and family at their island home in ME.

1976 Class Agent Needed Drew Schaefer writes: “To begin, I am married to Virginia native Rebecca Dulany Morison, UVA ’90, and have enjoyed nearly 20 years together raising two boys, Max, age 11, and Luc, age 7. We have a working farm in rural northern Virginia about 20 miles from the reasonably well-known horse community of Middleburg, where we enjoy miles of open countryside and rolling hills. Our boys attend an independent private school located about 50 miles southwest of Washington, DC in The Plains, VA. Interestingly,

their school, The Wakefield School, was until recently under the leadership of Peter Quinn ’74, who you may recall is son of the late and former EA Headmaster James H. Quinn, Hon. After graduating from Episcopal, and a lot of football, I was fortunate to attend perennial Division I hockey power Colgate University on an ice hockey scholarship, where I played some 60 games over four years. Upon graduating from Colgate I tried out for and was signed by the Toronto Maple Leafs in 1980 and briefly played in their system before
