September/October, 2002.
Last opportunity to make your reservations for our reunion;  the 35th reunion 
will be October 17-20, 2002.  Bruce Pacht has organized a great get-together!  
Join us.

Bob Petitt from Gorham, Maine says his son Rob joins Dartmouth '06 this fall.
Bob has worked half his professional life either in Europe or for European
shareholders.  Moved from NYC (and Credit Suisse) in 1990 to run a bank in 
Southern Maine, and ended up running two of them over a decade.  Currently
with Media Paths, Inc (marketing and media consultancy in Maine and Montreal).
Bob graduated from Monmouth College in Monmouth, Illinois, served as a captain
for Army in NATO (Germany) and MACSOG (Vietnam).  His wife is a business analyst/
computer programmer.  Bob remarks the picture of Jerry Petitt on SuperLinks
shows Jerry has assumed a similar shape; something about the Petitt genes!

Wayne Johnson works for the VA doing programming, data analysis, crunching numbers.
The drawbacks of the office:  questions which come out of left field, political
pressures, zero tolerance of inaccurate time estimates.  Sounds like the normal
bureaucracy of federal government.  Wayne plans to join us for the reunion.   

The Class of 1967 Memorial Grove at Occum Pond will be dedicated during reunion.
Since I assemble and write the obits for these notes and maintain the SuperLinks, 
I have been capturing the scholarships, awards, and recognition given in memory
of our lost classmates.  A selection follows; let me know if you are aware of 
others.  The Ned Gillette Adventure Grant was created by wife Susie Patterson; it 
is administered by the American Alpine Club as a tribute to Ned's imagination and 
ability to carry out and accomplish the adventures of his dreams.  At Woods Hole, 
the Geographical Information System Facility is named in honor of John (Jack)
V.K. Helfrich who served as an integral part of the Ecosystems Center from 
1975-1998.  The Stanford Graduate School of Business endows the individual
Richard K. Lazarus Memorial Fellowship.  At Dartmouth, the Ralph and Richard 
Lazarus chair recognizes a professor of Anthropology and Human Relations.  
At the University of New Hampshire Computer Sciences Department, the Richard 
Lyczak Memorial Teaching Award honors a teaching assistant for teaching and service.
The Marblehead High School in Marblehead, MA is located on Duncan Sleigh Square
named for a graduate who died in Viet Nam.  The William S. Smoyer award for 
sportsmanship is presented to a player in the Princeton, NJ Youth Hockey 
Association.  The Environmental Protection Agency Region III (Pennsylvania)
supports the Michael F. Vaccaro Honors Attorney Fellowship.  Wonderful legacy 
to preserve their presence.  In your estate planning consider creating an 
award or scholarship to help others.  Please send me specifics on how you 
would like to be remembered (write your own obit).
Lest we forget!  See you at reunion.
