Class Notes | 1984 | Chris Gaylord ’84 I attended the Boston event in December and enjoyed meeting the new Headmaster. He seems like a solid guy and I was pleased to learn that T-P is under great leadership. At the event, I caught up with Mort Fearey and Micah Chase from our class, Scudder Sinclair and Erik Olstein from ’86, Rob Ix ’83, and Jeff Hubbard from ’82. Also present was the legendary Miles Hubbard ’57! I am in regular contact with classmates Mark Sullivan, Rynard Gundrum, Tim Rooney, Lawson Willard, Gary Fung, Scott Seckel, Booker Corrigan, Bob Morrissey (and Brandon Waring and Bill Traff ’85 too). I recently saw Mike Findlay ’85, Logan Yonce ’85 and Avery Bourke ’86 in New Canaan. I was lucky enough to get a phone call and a Christmas card from Wilson Leech ’84 this year. I would also love to hear from you, so feel free to reach out to me: cgaylord@comcast.net (work) 617-672-8147 (cell) 978-810-8488
On a visit to Savannah we saw Barney Paderewski ’87. We are off to IA, NE, MO for spring break!!! If any T-P friends are in the ‘hood, let me know!!! It was great to meet Headmaster Bill Taylor at the Trinity-Pawling Holiday event in NYC. What a wonderful choice the school has made to steer T-P in the years to come.

Roman Zurutuza ’91
of coaching Team Maverick's All-Star team of rising sophomores to victory over Team Cascade at the Showtime Lacrosse Recruiting Showcase. Our team of 21 Division 1 commits was down four at the half but battled back to win it. One of our fogos happened to be Trinity-Pawling's own Anthony "Sam" Uva ’18. Having a member of the Pride on my roster was surreal and made our victory extra sweet. Go Big Blue! Patrick Riordan ’92
he was accepted into the Warrant Officer Program. Now as a Chief Warrant Officer 3 with a Tactical Communications Planning and Engineering Officer background with certifications in defense level acquisitions and program management, it's time to take a break. If working towards retirement wasn't stressful enough while still on active duty, Will is also working towards attaining his MBA at Syracuse University with a graduation date scheduled early 2017. Since graduating in 1994 from T-P...learning has continued to be continuous!!! Semper Fidelis!
It has been an amazing transition back to T-P after 11 years. Being back with so many great people from my past has been an incredible blessing. My family (Megan, Joseph, and Meredith) is having a great time as well. A.J. McHugh ’95 My family and I had a wonderful holiday. It was a great cap to a good year featuring our 20th Reunion!

| 1995 | John Appel ’95 I visited the T-P campus in May to wish farewell to Gay and Arch Smith. As part of the visit, which Chris Gillman ’05 brilliantly hosted, I had a chance to meet students and talk about investing and careers in finance as part of Mr. Hutchison's Economics class. I also had the chance to say hello to my old teachers Mr. and Mrs. Coratti, and to my old classmate Adam Dinsmore. I had not been to the School in 20 years and was enormously impressed. I live with my wife and four children in London where I have been for the past 15 years. After a few years in investment banking at Citigroup, I have now worked for 13 years for Gruss Capital, a hedge fund, where I head up their European investments. I am regularly in touch with other T-P alumni, like Robert Turner and Danny Enriquez (both ’91), as well as with my brother Felipe ’95, who now lives in Geneva and works as a private banker. | 1992 | Philip L.
