ALUMNI NEWS
From Frances MITCHELL Sherman, '52: "I live on a 120-acre
ranch in Hayfork, CA. We have lived here since 1977. My husband
and I raised Angus cows (40 head) for a number of years. I
continue to raise a small flock of Corridale, Sulffok, Columbian
cross sheep that are all black, so the wool can be used for
spinning. This year I had 12 lambs, which increases the flock to
19 head. I plan to sell all but two, which will give me a flock
of 8 ewes. Some are sold for meat and others to increase other
folks' flocks. Last year I bought 23 chickens, so I am
selling eggs to my friends. My husband Bob is retired, as well as
I, but I spend a great deal of my free time quilting. Wish I
lived closer so I could attend the 1952 gatherings. I've been
in contact with Wes Moody at least once a year, and he sent me
information of class reunions in the past...."
 "This is me, Neil BROWN (on the
left), and 1953 classmate buddy Ron Dillon. We just met up at the
Wolf Road Diner after 50-some years since seeing each other. Ron
gave me the nickname 'Lightning' early on and it stuck!
Ron was earning an income as a professional photographer while at
Milne and he is still doing the same. Dillon Photography studio
is on Route 9 in Clifton Park."
Please continue to update me with your
"Alumni News"!
