Alumni December Newsletter Dear Milne Alumni and Supporters, In this issue: * Class of 1967 50-Year Reunion * Yearbook Request * Good Use of Digitization Project * Sad News CLASS OF 1967 50-YEAR REUNION From Dean Elsworth, '67: The Milne Class of 1967 is preparing for our 50th reunion, which will be held in Albany during the weekend of October 13, 2017, and we are trying to include as many classmates as possible. We are inviting anyone who was ever a member of our class, without concern as to whether they actually graduated with us in 1967. We have contact information for 63 people, 5 are reported as deceased, and we're trying to find at least the 10 more who are listed below. Can you help us find them? If so, please contact Dean. Barbara Berne Dawn Brenner Jeff Gordon Dan Larrabee Bob Mason Jan Mellen Carol Michaelson Butcher Barb Proctor Phyllis Rickman Friedman Tom Wahl YEARBOOK REQUEST Marcia Goldstein, '65, is looking for a '62 yearbook. If you have one that you're willing to give up, please let her know. GOOD USE OF DIGITIZATION PROJECT I recently learned of the passing of a Milne alumna, "Eleanor Angell", '42. When I searched for her name on our online alumni list, there were no results. So I accessed the digitized 1942 yearbook, searched for "Angell," and BINGO! "Eleanor Angell Gutterson" was listed as a member of the Class of '42! Without access to the 1942 yearbook, I would have assumed that either there was an error in Eleanor's obituary (i.e., that she hadn't graduated from Milne) or that her name had been omitted from the source of the online lists! So thanks to all of you who donated to the digitization project, I "found" Eleanor! SAD NEWS Please note that I rely upon the Albany Times Union and input from other alumni for this information, so if you become aware of someone who has passed away, please let me know. If a name is underlined, it represents a link to the obituary. Many obituaries are available free for a limited time only.
