CdeP ’60 was really looking forward to our 60th Reunion until some virus thing upended the celebration. Meanwhile, we had a good turnout for a Zoom reunion and anticipate a strong in person turnout next June. Bob Gardner CdeP 1960

I finally closed my business this year, realizing no one wants to hire a 76 year old dud. Now we will start doing the things for which we moved to Idaho 20 years ago—the great outdoors. Chas Bonner CdeP 1960

Finishing up what will probably be my last business consulting assignment. Looking forward to indolence and to a very late English Spring. Still living in Twickenham and enjoying the rugby. Don’t see many Toads here, so visitors are welcome. Living in London not far from Heathrow. John M. Jordan CdeP 1960
