Bea Jennings Salywon writes, “Here is everything that I could find out. Jane Vogel has recently moved to inland Florida (from Daytona Beach) to Ormond Beach in order to escape some of Florida’s ‘famous’ coastal weather, and she is very busy enjoying her lovely new home. Barbara Ritchie MacPhail has retired and is now busy with her cat and dog family. Sylvia Albany Turmelle is so lucky to be near her family and especially enjoys the company of her granddaughters in Colchester, VT. She is recovering nicely, however, from a fall. Ruthie Matthews O’Leary has been very busy recording some of her wonderful music for her family and also playing the piano for friends in retirement homes. She is getting ready to visit friends in Florida. Sibi Davis Rhodes and her husband continue daily walks near their new home in South Carolina. They have just returned from a trip to Virginia to visit their new great granddaughter. Zoe Head Swift and husband play bridge with neighbors and friends. Zoe continues to knit blankets for the hospital. Now, as for me, I spent Christmas in Las Vegas with my daughter and family. My son and family live in Phoenix, and he comes down on weekends whenever he can. I do plan to sell my home of 46 years and move to a nearby retirement home. Now I suppose I must also include the sad news.We have lost two of our friends during the past year; Louise Lancaster Lawrence died last January, and Helen Brown Pappas died in December. Helen and Barbara and I were all from Salem, NH. The year that Sibi and I were coming to Tucson to teach, Helen rode to Tucson with us. She stayed a few weeks and then returned home to be married. Sibi and I stayed to teach for one year. That’s all the news I’ve got; if you have anything new let me know!”

Drina Blanchette writes, “All seems to be fairly quiet on the ’46 front. I guess we’re all settling in doing what the 80’s group does—whatever that may be! Marion Warren is good at keeping us posted as to what is happening in her area. Ruth Bolduc had a fall and broke her hip.We hope all is better by now; time and patience for everything. Cynthia Harmon and I still go to water aerobics three times a week. Love the water! I understand Virginia Dearborn and Pauline Cole are also doing the aerobics. Elizabeth
Tennyson and husband, Dan, spent some part of February in Florida. Hope the change was a break for them. Talked to Virginia Hallisey and we’re trying to decide when and where our next reunion might be. Gigi is busy with her secretarial job with the state regarding our retirement fund. Barbara Patch sounded good, and says the therapy she received has helped her a lot. Good to know. Beverly Shaw is fine and keeping busy as usual with community work, as well as cat-sitting for her granddaughter. I talked to Pauline Clark and she is doing as well as can be expected. Since she lost her daughter she is alone in her big house, but has such great strength and attitude, you have to admire her. Pauline Merrill has moved to Center Conway. Hope things are well with her. I would like to hear from you all, time is flying right by! Enjoy!”

Peter Brown writes, “On August 10, 2006, Dorothy Kaffel hosted her annual potluck luncheon at her lake house in Moultonboro. We had a great turnout that included:
Harold and Barbara Matava ’50, Maybeth Oberti, Eileen Clark, Kay and Steve Tassey, Lionel DeLacey, Bev Jones, Bob Paine, Jean Dodge Salmarsh ’50, Claira Monier ’62, Kenneth Marshall (UNH ’51), Ruth Millar, Evelyn Westover Millar, Jackie Spear, Daisy Day, Angela Matthews (PSU staff), Darcy Homan (PSU staff), Martha and David Wade ’50, Keith Hanscom, and Barbara Nowacki.We were honored by a brief visit from the new President of PSU, Dr. Sara Jayne Steen; a gracious lady who is a welcome addition to our history. The buffet was outstanding and plentiful. Thanks to all for your generous contributions. Following lunch, we had a short meeting to get ideas for the next reunion, which is in 2007. We need to hear from all of our classmates with news about you and your ideas on the reunion. Honey Reardon still enjoys her
Concord, NH home where she’s lived many years and still keeps the blackberry bushes cut back. Yes, our kind of exercise. She and her sister have been longtime world travelers and both enjoyed visiting Ireland last April. Steve Tassey and wife Kay also have travel stories to tell. They returned from an extended New Zealand trip last year with favorable impressions of a healthy, generous and good looking citizenry there. Steve and Kay still live in their Shelburne, NH home near their former vegetable farm. Jean Baker Pollock’s husband, Joseph, passed away last year. Jean, however, feels fortunate to have a son and daughter near her home in Wilton, NH. She’s especially proud of her son, Joe Jr., a string musician who has been blind all his life. Unbelievably, he helps his mom at her home and in the summer keeps her swimming pool clean. Daisy Day, living in her old homestead in Chichester, NH, writes that she’s thinking of painting again; this while she’s presently making a braided rug, attending her exercise group at Planet Fitness, and taking a course in Islamic culture. Prior to passing on she wants to have the Arab world figured out. Barbara Larsen and husband live in Salem, NH. Her husband has had several heart concerns but she says he’s now ‘up to steam!’ Her three grandsons live in Salem and are a delight for her as well as her adult sons. Barbara keeps busy with church, bowling, and spending time at Myrtle Beach. She has had some contact with classmates Al and Marie who hope to attend our next gathering. Jean Kibbe has moved from her large home to a delightful condo in Simsbury, CT. She says she is working, walking, and sometimes running with her very young grandchildren. Jean is a real estate agent working for Prudential and is ‘available’ seven days a week. Her two sons are financial executives, one working in Manhattan, the other in Connecticut. She also attends church and spends a good deal of time with church work. Jean has traveled worldwide as well as in the U.S., and has been to Europe, New Zealand, Alaska, and so forth.”

Helenjane Hanson writes, “Ted and Cynthia ‘Cindy’ Houston recently returned from a 12-week drive across our northern border and up into Alaska. They met some
nice folks and saw some fabulous scenery. They visited Fairbanks, the Yukon, and Mt.McKinley and many other sights. They drove 13, 000 miles and are still talking to
each other; that’s what I call a successful trip! Your intrepid correspondent was also on the road this fall, as I journeyed down to West Harwich to visit with my son Sean
and I was wined and dined like a rock star. At first I had my doubts as he had me hiking out onto the dunes in Provincetown and I was sure I was going to die and he was going to dispose of my body in the sand (think Laurence of Arabia for landscape).While in Harwich, Sean and I visited with Sally Ayre Rossetti who among other classmates took a train ride that she wrote about separately. I was too tired to go, but Ted and Cindy Houston, Katherine “Kay” MacDonald, Paul and Joan Magoon, Hal and Priscilla Fernald ’54, Elissa Canninstrars Sullivan and husband Gene, and Ron MacDougall and Sally had a fun trip with lovely weather.” Sally Rossetti writes, “We decided in April to ride the Hobo train from Meredith to Livermore Falls in October and managed to have chosen the absolutely most beautiful fall day possible. The crew who organized this journey had us all in our own spot on the train right on time.We were 11, sharing the car with about 50 colorful ‘red-hatters,’ and our sturdy, serviceable coach was Winona. The luxuriously restored parlor car was tantalizingly situated directly in front of us.We could peer through the rear door of that coach, but otherwise that group was well protected from those of us riding in less than first class! It was truly fascinating, retracing a trip that most of us had taken for regular transportation in the years we were Plymouth undergraduates long ago. In Plymouth, we disembarked for lunch catered by the local senior center.Much to our amusement, during the meal a loudspeaker announcement was made informing us that someone had left dentures in the ladies room, and although we initially thought it a joke, we later found out it was not! Riding over the Pemigewasset River and then seeing Livermore Falls were exhilarating experiences for all of us. On the return trip home we came to a grinding halt as we discovered that a trailer loaded with wood chips for the energy producing plant in Alexandria had been unloaded, blocking the tracks! After numerous attempts at solving the problem, a cab appeared with a trailer attached and the trailer was disconnected and we were on our return trip about one hour behind schedule. Never mind, what a great day, thanks to organizers Paul and Ted we had lots to remember and one more great adventure to add to our Plymouth memory book.

Lorraine Avery Johnstone writes, “Plymouth High School Class of ’51 held its 55th reunion recently in Plymouth. Attending were Ellie (Eleanor) Stewart Volpe and Tom.They both were well and heading to Ireland. Bob Knowles and Peggy were unable to attend, but were also going to Ireland. Helen Potter Knowlton was also at the reunion and was looking well.While at the beach last summer, I was glad to spend time with Fran Purrington Paul. She and I visited Arlene Parent Welch. Recently I attended a retired teacher’s luncheon with Arlene. Also in attendance was Mary Ann Jewel LaCasse ’54. Arlene will travel to California for the winter, and Mary Ann to Florida. In a card from El and Alfa Bowers Bourey ’54 I learned that they had a wonderful time in Africa. I am writing here at Anna Marie Island on Tampa Bay.We try to spend two months here in the sun.”

Patricia Casweell writes, “Our 50th Reunion will be celebrated June 22–24, 2007 at PSU’s Alumni Weekend. You should have received the information in the mail. Let’s
make it a big turn out! The Class of 1957 Scholarship Award for 2006–2007 went to Samantha Bailey, who is majoring in Childhood Studies. Jody Buum Wilson and
husband Frank had a great time in Lafayette, LA in April enjoying the Cajun dancing, cooking, and music. On May 16, 2006, Annabelle and Dick Fagnant celebrated
their 50th Anniversary. Their children, Mark and Marie, and their families hosted a dinner party at Peyton Place in Orford, NH. Sheila Thompson Emery and her sister-in law went on a Caribbean Carnival Miracle Cruise during the summer, and she is ready to go again! Ken was back on top of Signal Peak looking for forest fires. Janet Carriel
Tibbetts is enjoying retirement.”

1958
Jean Routhier O’Shea writes, “I was delighted to get an e-mail from Larry Presby who wants to attend our 50th class reunion in 2008! (That’s just around the corner, folks!) Larry taught English for 30 years in Long Island where he met his wife, a business education teacher. They have three children and five grandkids. Our annual
Christmas get-together with some of the ‘girls’ provided a good bit of news (thanks to Nina Savitch who plans the ‘party.’) Joining us in our first time was Lucille Demers
La Flamme who taught for many years at St. Anselm College and lived in Manchester. Also attending was Barbara Hayes Metivier from Greenfield, who is busy volunteering and enjoys providing an ongoing exercise class for seniors; she also sees Betty Stimson who traveled to Ireland with a choral group last year. Marge Thompson Newell from Marlow is well, but could not be with us as we hoped. Also unable to be with us was Shirley Solari Corrette. She and George were in Alaska visiting with their daughter and family. Also in Alaska last year was Dodie Merrill Greenwood who, we hear, walked on a glacier! Other “Alaskans” were Oscar Serard and Linda Cote Morrow, who made 11 trips to Maryland with her husband to visit their baby grandson. A surprise to moms Lois Kretschmar Lindh and Carol Willis Aldriche is the fact that their sons not only know one another but have been good friends for some time! Carol took a trip through the Canadian Rockies by rail and enjoyed an 8″ snowfall
while en route. She reports that Wayne Evans is a summer neighbor who has built a log cabin on Lake Armington in the Concord area.We hear that Jim and Carol Tierney Cornwell still live in California but have downsized and moved like so many of us. And finally, George Radcliffe is now a storyteller of note and is known to many as ‘Uncle Georgie.’ As my granddaughter Maggie would say, ‘that’s cool!’” David Ivester writes, “With the birth of three Ivester grandsons the past three years, my wife Elsie and I now have ten grandchildren.We continue to travel a lot especially to visit some of our children and grandchildren who live some distance from us. Other trips have included bike trips to Prince Edward Island, Acadia National Park in Maine, Normandy, and France; hiking in Zermatt, Switzerland around the Matterhorn, skiing in Garmisch-Partenkirchen, Germany and visiting the cities of Budapest, Prague, Munich, Innsbruck and Paris. For twelve years I did assist my wife in caring for her elderly father who had a severe health condition. Also, the past two years I have been participating in volunteer work at the church that I attend. I have fond memories of being a member of the first tennis team at PSU, and I continue to compete in tennis in both the U.S. Tennis Association sanctioned tournaments here in NE and the Senior Olympics. Win or lose I have a lot of fun and have made many friends. One competes in their age group and gets ranked accordingly. 2004 was a great year as I was the men’s singles winner in the Senior Olympics in New Hampshire, Maine, and Hawaii. Competing in Hawaii was obviously exciting, and one of the competitors was a retired naval officer who organized a tournament at Pearl Harbor.We did have to pass through tight security but the facilities were magnificent. I also had a win in the summer of 2004 at the USTA National Grass Court Tournament at the Philadelphia Cricket Club in Pennsylvania. Because of my record in 2004, in 2005 I found myself with a national ranking in the men’s singles in the top 100 and had the honor of being the top seeded player in the country at the National Senior Olympics in Pittsburgh. One qualifies to compete in the Nationals by winning the gold medal in their respective age group in any of the states. It is exciting not only to compete in the Senior Olympics, but to watch the other events take place.”

Kathy Anderson Nelson writes, “A wonderful time was had by members of the Class of 1961 who attended our 45th reunion. Among the activities we enjoyed were Pub Night at the Common Man, the BBQ and Carnival, visiting the Meteorology Department and seeing a weather balloon launched, visiting the library and the archives, and the football game that we won by one point. A delicious buffet dinner was enjoyed at the Country Cow Restaurant on Saturday evening. Those who attended include Debbie Sargent and Thain Allan, Gail Walsh Barker, Bill Brown, Barbara and Jack Cavanaugh, Bunny Buczynski Clark, Bette Tirrell DeRocher, Claudette Pare Fucci, Judy Freese and John Ludgate, Wayne Mercer, Marilyn Currie Mons, Kay Stratton and John Morris, Shirley Farnham and Ray Mullaly, Kathy Anderson Nelson, Ed O’Sullivan and his daughter Megan O’Sullivan Todd ’84 and Gene Stearns ’62, Claire Gauthier Wallace, Donna and Doug Wiseman, and Sheila Young. We hope all classmates will begin thinking about our 50th reunion in 2011 as we would love to have a much larger turnout! If anyone has an interest in working on our Class Gift to be presented at our 50th, please contact Bobbi Stearns through the Alumni Office. Judy Freese Ludgate and Bunny Buczynski Clark have graciously agreed to become our new class co-agents. Please trust and support them. Send them lots of information about yourselves and classmates.

Our class wishes to thank Darcy Homan and the staff at the Alumni Office, for all their extra efforts to make our 40th reunion special.We all appreciate everything you did. Our reunion committee wishes to thank our classmates for their support, ideas, and interest in the reunion. All those who could come enjoyed themselves and have great memories to last until the next reunion! Many of us had other scheduled plans, family needs and /or health reasons to keep us away (in body not spirit.) I wish to thank the committee for all their hard work and super efforts. Our conference calls were energizing and full of laughter. A reminder of our times at PSC and how well we worked as classmates! Please stay in touch with members of the committee and classmates.We hope classmates can get together again in June. Please mark your calendar for June 22–24, 2007.We can again renew friendships of our class as well as friends from 1967 and 1968.

rep. firm for Apple Computer. She attended the national rollout of the Apple Macintosh in Hawaii, met Steve Jobs and Bill Gates, a “relative unknown” at that time, who was bringing Visicalc to the Apple format. Moving from Apple to Hewlett-Packard, also as a trainer, she became a licensed real estate agent, thinking it would be a good “retirement” interest. However, once involved in it, she knew she had “found her niche!” Several years later, she was offered a partnership in a local firm, and a year later she and her partner became the first exclusive buyer agency in the area, and only the second in the state! After her partner’s retirement, she is the sole broker-owner. On the personal side, after returning to NH, she met the “love of her life” KenMcGee, area native, pipe fitter, and fisherman. She helped raise one of his three children and now they are grandparents to 10…something she loves! Her memories of PSC are mostly music related, with a pageant or two as well. After winning an opera competition, she sang at the National Theater in Ottawa, Canada, in 1971. Over the years, she has sung in several choirs, but would love to have the time to do more; maybe in retirement,
if she can figure out when and how to do that! She is loving life and is thankful for all the positive experiences that Plymouth gave her. Barbara Stetson Edwards and Don
