March/April 2010. 

John Lobitz of Portland Oregon is a gastroenterologist in private practice (planning to retire
the end of 2010). John and Rosanne spent some time with Steve and Maureen Cheheyl at Lake Sunapee
and also at Vail. John has been a regular at the Dartmouth Winter CarniVail joining up with
Jon Meck, Steve Cheheyl, and John Manaras. Last summer John played golf with John Magee and Jack
Herney '65 while in New Hampshire, then visited Marshall "Buzz" Land in Burlington, Vermont. 
When he retires, John plans to move to Denver to be close to family, classmates, and of course 
the skiing. Nancy Smoyer in Fairbanks, Alaska wrote "this last Veterans Day, Jim Wright, was invited to 
speak at the Vietnam Veterans Memorial because of his work with the wounded veterans at Walter 
Reed and Bethesda. Since Nancy always goes back to volunteer at the Wall around Veterans Day, she had 
the pleasure of hearing the talk. It was very special to hear Jim's comments about Billy not just as a 
Marine but also as Dartmouth graduate.

Warren Cook of Kingfield, Maine commented "Roger that Nancy, thanks for sharing this pointed tribute 
to all of our fallen, including Billy. Jim got it right. I wish more people understood what he said. 
PS. I was at Walter Reed this fall showing our film and spent some time at Iwo as well, Bill was ever 
present and always is, right at my desk and in my heart." The film is a documentary on the Bangor
Troop Greeters. John Manaras provided a brief Alumni Council report and details about the Alumni Council 
candidates for Board of Trustees. Become familiar with the candidates then make your voice 
heard by voting. The campus and alumni who have met new President Jim Kim are thrilled.
