My long-absent best wishes to all my 1948 classmates still surviving. At 88, I’m still pretty active, though no longer scuba diving, my main physical activity for many years. I’m widowed but not dating anyone now. If you wish to e-mail me, you can use my regular e-mail address: georgeb277@cox.net. Chris Boyle CdeP 1948

Sandy Walker ’48
Continuing architecture for my sixth year at a rather slow pace. Still see Sam Wright, Peter Dunne, and Elliot Hayne. Kay and I share four of my grandchildren. One doctor, one film maker, one Fulbright scholar in Turkey, and one making very good Keenan wine, while in Brooklyn I have two high school boys and their mom […]
Sam Wright ’48

I was in California with my friend Roxane Witke in February and had wonderful visits with two classmates. Sid and Linda Liebes entertained us overnight in Atherton, and Bud and Pat Lester came from La Jolla to spend a day with us in Pasadena. True friendships never die. Charlton Lewis CdeP 1948
Sandy Walker ’48
Still afloat and trying architecture still. See Sam Wright, Elliot Hayne, and Bill Bucklin often, and enjoy grandchildren. Two at Stanford, one playing ice hockey, one in pre-med at USC, one doing Keenan wine with his father, and a stepdaughter who won the Pulitzer prize for fiction a year ago. I am amazed; it must […]
John Bissell ’48
I regret missing our 65th reunion. Sam Wright and I have talked about trying to set-up another date for us all to meet at School before our 70th – no progress so far. It has been 100 years since my father graduated from Thacher then rode horseback to Cimmaron, New Mexico, for his first job […]

Having retired from teaching Chinese history, I have become interested in China’s water crisis. Last November I published an online article on hydropower in China at Yale Environment 360 (just google “China’s Great Dam Boom”). I’m getting more worried about the future of green power.

Chris Boyle ’48
I’m blessed with excellent health and work out vigorously twice a week in a class with friends. I am the principal caregiver for my wife, who has Parkinson’s disease, and that takes a good bit of my time. I’m an avid fan of University of Arizona sports and serve on two neighborhood boards of directors. […]
John C. “Sandy” Walker ’48
Still doing Architecture. See Bill Bucklin, Sam Wright, cousin, Hendy Henderson, and did spend two high school graduations in Telleride, Colo, with a great teacher and mentor, David Lavander, who was even reading A Visit from the Goon Squad by my step daughter. Both grandchildren got into Stanford. (To bad they couldn’t get in to […]
