May/June, 2002.
If you have not done so, you still have time to make your reservations
for our Reunion;  the 35th Reunion will be October 17-20, 2002.  
It will be a time to look back on accomplishments, reflect on
choices, build new relationships, set new goals, and to go forward.
We need your assistance in recruiting nominees for class officers and  
volunteers to help the class. Let Sam Ostrow know of your interests.  
Come see what Bruce Pacht has assembled for our great get-together!

Finally, need your help.  With the increasing number of classmate deaths and 
medical conditions shared, I have noted several medical concerns: prostate
cancer and non-Hodgkin's lymphoma.  I suggest as a class we explore developing
a database to monitor the incidence, investigate what can be done to detect 
and treat these conditions, and promote some education programs.  Any reactions?
