Reunion Giving

# 5 or More Consecutive Years of Giving * 20 or More Consecutive Years of Giving Member of The James L. Dunbar ’49 Legacy Society

~ Deceased

The Proctor Alumni Association saw remarkable engagement during this past year through our Back to Your Roots, Together Series, and other virtual events. Throughout these events, we heard stories from generations of Proctor alumni, each living out our school’s mission in their own corners of the globe. We shared laughs, tears, and memories of Proctor that remain deeply rooted in who we are and how we live our lives. As we anticipate the return of in-person alumni events beginning once again this year, we look forward to catching up face-to-face in the near future. Until then, enjoy these updates from your classmates in this year’s Alumni Notes.

Please share updates from your life with your Class Chair and learn how you can get involved with the Proctor Alumni Association by connecting via email at alumni@proctoracademy.org or over the phone at 603-735-6720.

Bruce Nourie ’58

Lakewood Ranch, FL Bruce reports that he and Wilma are doing well and, as of communicating with the Alumni office, they had no issues with COVID-19. He remained active during the pandemic, serving as President of a 186 boat marina on the Intracoastal Waterway and Treasurer of his large homeowners association. They still travel north to Bristol, R.I. each summer and are looking forward to traveling abroad again. Bruce looks forward to hearing from other classmates from the class of ‘58!

Bruce Gasque ’65

West Wardsboro, VT It is with deep sadness that Bruce writes of the passing of his good friend and Boston University roommate, Richard Kimball. Bruce celebrated his 75th birthday in December of 2020 and remains in great shape, exercising daily during all four seasons. He has more hobbies than he has time for! He is hoping to reconnect with classmates from the class of ‘65

Chris Morris ’68

Paoli, PA Chris Morris is happily retired and he and his wife Karen are approaching their 50th wedding anniversary. They enjoy spending time with their three children and eleven grandchildren. He still returns to New Hampshire several times every year and marvels at the transformation of the campus. He is always interested in hearing from classmates!

Bill Bolton ’69

Bel Air, MD Bill checks in with this story of two Proctor alums connecting over a shared on-campus experience in Andover, NH. “After Proctor I did some sailing on the Chesapeake Bay. I got picked up by a guy for an early spring overnight race and we were talking about how cold we had been in our life. He told the story about going to high school where the ice rink was outside and it got so cold that they put a jockstrap over each ear for practice to keep warm. I just yelled at him, ‘you went to Proctor Academy.’ And he had! We sailed that one race and I never saw him again and haven’t a clue as to his name.”

Gordie Harper ’69

Atlanta, GA Gordie reports that he recently retired after 45 years in the publishing and advertising industry. He enjoys spending time with his seven grandchildren - five girls and two twin three-year-old boys - playing golf and croquet, hiking, fishing, and wing shooting. He decided to avoid traveling during the pandemic. Gordie shared this reflection: “Gents, while this picture of Proctor is beautiful, I hope it was taken in early November. This looks like the ice pond outside the old gym, an outdoor rink with lights. I remember many nights going up and down that ice with a stick in my gloves and no pads -- and no cup. I think we were playing pick-up hockey and “rinky-dink” hockey on this ice before the Christmas holiday. It made me laugh thinking about the Barnstable boys and how they would still check you over the boards in a pick-up game. Especially Tommy. Then he would stop, say he was sorry, and do it to someone else. Thank goodness for snow banks.”

Jim Hoyt ’69

Chagrin Falls, OH Jim sends his best wishes to the Proctor alumni community, and he hopes that 2021 has been less complicated than 2020 for Proctor alumni. 2020 was an extremely tough year for everyone in his close circle.

David LeDuc ’69

Willow Spring, NC David writes that he is “simply trying to keep the proverbial chin up in face of old age, COVID-19, and the decline of the democracy experiment.” He is still working as a roofing contractor, by his estimation one of a few with a master’s degree. He perhaps works more now than he did 20 years ago. Despite being busy and his “rapidly deteriorating knees,” David still rides his bicycle. After taking bass guitar lessons a few years ago, he formed an adult (with the exception of the bass player!) band that has not played together during the pandemic. He is grateful to have his job and his health. At the time of writing his wife Margaret was working as an RN on a hospital Med/Surg floor, at high risk of contracting COVID-19. David was eagerly awaiting his turn to get vaccinated. He had a great time at his fiftieth reunion and hopes that in-person reunions will resume! David sends his best to the class of ‘69.

Bob McClintic ’69

Pittsburgh, PA Bob sends this rallying cry to the Proctor community: “Onward and upward to all!”

Frank Neer ’69

Cohasset, MA Frank writed that he enjoyed seeing his classmates at their 50th!

Dave Roper ’69

Marblehead, MA Dave checks in with these memories of playing hockey at Proctor: “I remember the boards sinking so much that I sometimes thought of hopping over them in the event I was going to get checked. I remember Spence, on the coldest of days, out there with very little clothing, seemingly immune to the cold. I remember playing a whole game at Cardigan Mountain with zero feeling in my hands. I remember the antics of Stuey Richardson on defense. I remember playing Westmount High in Canada. They were so fast and we were so slow that when coming down ice with the puck, when they’d fake right and go left, we’d still be left -- and they’d crash back into us! I remember having used Tack skates with half the rivets out between blade and sole. I remember playing four years and never getting a goal. I remember...well, that’s enough.”

Chris White ’69

Sandpoint, ID Chris shares that while he is avoiding heavy lifting, he is still fishing salmon commercially in Alaska, driving the boat, and working with a great crew. He recently became a grandfather, his two children live nearby, and he “[has] a wonderful sweetheart for a girlfriend.” Despite the “age thing, life remains sweet.” He sends his best to everyone in the Proctor community. Chris also shares this memory from the Proctor vs. Westmount hockey game, a matchup that was “always a slaughter”: “I was skating down the ice with one small defensemen between me and the goal. I decided the best tactic was to bowl him over with my superior size. He easily stepped aside and gave me a hip check

that practically landed me upside down in the goal. Also, like Mel Gibson in “Lethal Weapon,” John Gary kept dislocating his shoulder playing defense. His dad was a doc and would snap it back in the middle of the rink…weird. Saturday night pick-up hockey was so darn fun!”

Tom Rudkin ’70 Sarasota, FL Tom reports that he had a great Zoom class call with Pete Carney, who joined from “down under,” Joe Coakley, John Welsh, Ben Beale, Ben Fairless, Dave Moulton, Jeff Haas, and Chis Olsen. They spoke for almost two hours, sharing stories and catching up. He finds it amazing that this group of Proctor friends can simply pick up where they left off. All are looking forward to their reunion in June 2022.

Bill Buchsbaum ’71

Southport, NC Bill writes that he has lived in Colorado for most of his adult life expecting that he would retire on the coast. He first moved to North Carolina, and, shortly after he retired in 2018, he and his wife bought a house in Maine. They spend about six months of the year there Bill hopes to visit Proctor for the next in-person reunion. He stays in touch with Proctor friends from his class and the class of 1970.

Gary Wright ’72

Middlebury, VT Gary expresses his thanks to the Development team for sending a great picture of Alumni Hockey. He also recalls “Yes, and if you were checked by Tom Tripp after a February thaw, you might fly even higher [than] and over the semi-sunken boards. Whether you were a player, a member of the ‘Elite Engineers’ ice crew, or skated in those chaotic all-campus Saturday night pickup games, the Proctor pond/rink was a pretty special place.” He adds that his father kept his loud cheering voice well into his nineties, and he was a regular at Middlebury College men’s and women’s hockey games.

Dan Murphy ’78

Putnam, CT Dan is proud to report that Daniel Murphy received his JD this month from Georgetown Law and is officially a “Hoyalawya”! After preparing for the bar exam this summer, he will begin his career in Boston this October at Ropes and Gray. Daniel’s twin brother and sister Jacob and Anna turned 21 on May 22. Anna is working as a restaurant manager on Nantucket this season and is entering her senior year at Elon University. Jacob is living and working in his hometown of Woodstock, CT. Dan spent significant time in Florida during the winter of 2020-21 and enjoyed seeing classmate Lee Ross ’78 in Greensboro, NC on the route south.

Scott Dow ’81

Mount Pleasant, SC Scott checks in with the update that he had a nice dinner with Emily ‘82 and Jeff Vaughan in Charleston.

Patty-Ann Lattimer ’81

Goshen, NY Patty Ann writes that she has retired from teaching for medical reasons. She taught at a private day school on Long Island, NY. She currently lives in Goshen, NY, but she is hoping to relocate to Windsor, CT as soon as she and her husband are able to sell their home. Patty-Ann has been married to her husband, Frank, for 26 years, and they are still best friends. She credits her Proctor advisor, teacher and friend, Tom Eslick, with having the greatest impact on her teaching and advising of students. She also recalls Mr. Livingston and Doc Hand as instrumental to her development as a teacher. As a Day Student her closest friends were Tom Colby ’82, Anne Thayer ‘81, and Bob Murphy ’81. She recalls her time at Proctor with fondness, including basketball and athletic training, Headmaster Holidays, skiing at Cannon Mountain, playing basketball, learning to rock climb, going on the first fall Mountain Classroom ever, dish duty, and all the fabulous plays that her fellow classmates performed in. Patty-Ann makes cards with rubber stamps and watercolor on various media.

Scott Likly ’81

Pittsford, NY Current Science Department Chair Buz Morison was excited to meet Scott Likly ‘81 when he went looking for a new tire in Scott’s bike store, Towpath Bike, in Pittsford, NY. Scott has many wonderful memories of Proctor and especially of some influential faculty. Those include Garry George ’78 his ski coach and Richard Parker his dorm parent. Scott still credits his

ability to build and run a successful business to his experience on Mountain Classroom and the lasting influence of Tim Miner. Buz and Scott hope to get together for some skiing adventures this winter, hopefully on the Proctor Nordic Trails!

Steve Gallagher ’82

Newport, NH Steve and his wife Heather recently purchased the Crows Nest RV Campground in Newport, NH, about 25 miles west of Proctor. Their two black labs, Lexi and Kizzy, love the surrounding fields. If you are in the area, pay them a visit at 529 S Main St., Newport NH 03773, call them at 603-863-6170, or visit them online at www.crowsnestcampground.com

Wendy Chambers Brown ’86

Westford, MA Wendy writes that one of the highlights of the pandemic has been connecting with classmates over Zoom. She has shared laughs and virtual cocktails with Jen Ballou Vogt ’86, Kym Brown O’Brien ’86, Stephanie Nichols ’86, Erin Hogle Taylor’ 86, Mitzie Wood Laidlaw ’86, Julie Garside ’86, Sarah Blodgett ’86 and Kari England ’88. At the time of writing she was hoping to set up more Zoom calls with Proctor classmates.

Jeff Pensiero ’87

Nelson, BC, Canada Jeff is in disbelief that his oldest daughter has graduated high school! He recently acquired a second backcountry snowboarding and skiing operation in Nelson, BC and would love to see more Hornets come out for a visit! You can find him at: www.baldface.com

Mollie Burns ’90

Valley Village, CA Mollie has been living in Los Angeles, CA for the past 22 years. After graduating from Proctor, Molly attended NYU and then lived in Hong Kong, New York City, and Los Angeles, working as a gemologist/ jewelry expert for Christie’s Auction House. She left Christie’s in 2000 to begin ventures of her own, but has remained very much involved in all aspects of the LA jewelry industry. Mollie is excited to report that her daughter, Campbell, entered Proctor as a freshman this fall. She thinks Proctor will be a great fit for her “super smart, open-minded, and adventurous daughter who has a fantastic singing voice and an eye for art and adventure.” Mollie is also the proud mother of a 19 year-old autistic son. While this diagnosis has brought with it many challenges, Mollie notes that there have been moments of incredible growth along the way. She writes that one of her son’s biggest joys and talents was Pixar, and that he became really quite a great computer animator. Stemming from her son’s passion for animation, Mollie and her father along with other parents of autistic children, started a non-profit vocational school called Exceptional Minds. In partnership with a L.A. studio, the school teaches computer animation to young adults in the region. Mollie is still on the board, and she encourages the Proctor community to follow their work at https:// exceptional-minds.org and consider supporting this important organization.

Like many of her classmates, Mollie celebrated her 50th birthday this past year. She celebrated with friends and family, but it was particularly special this year because she became engaged to a sweet man, Jesse Johnson, whom she met through Tony Kurz ‘89. They will be blending their two families, and Mollie soon will have four kids! She is thankful for so many things: memories and wisdom gained at Proctor, her two beautiful children, her supportive parents, sister and brother, and to have reconnected with her future husband.

Max Corcoran ’90

Ocala, FL Max wishes she were planning another big party for Proctor alumni at her house. Because of the pandemic, party planning is on hold and she has been reconnecting with classmates via Zoom. Max writes, “As much as social media can be the enemy, Facebook has helped me stay connected to quite a few friends and keep up a bit on life happenings.” Max lives in Ocala, FL and continues to find career success and pursue her passions of working with horses and eventing. Max feels incredibly lucky to travel to national and international championships looking after horses. She has also begun organizing competitions herself. Finally, at the time of writing, Max was excited about the opportunity to work at the Summer 2020 Tokyo Olympic Games. She is grateful and honored for the invitation. Max’s common law husband is a professional show jumper and rides internationally for Australia. You can read more about Max in this blog post in the Proctor Buzz: http://blogs.proctoracademy.org/proctor-alumni-maxcorcoran-90-and-tokyo-olympics

Emmett Dunbar ’90

South Londonderry, VT Emmett enjoyed hearing from Max recently but misses her smile. He is hoping for a reunion in the near future in Lake Sunapee! Emmett still works on his farm in southern Vermont, and he recently started a joint venture with other local growers and herbalists called, The Four Farmers Herbalist Collective. They

have created a “community supported apothecary,” or another form of CSA! Emmett is grateful for his supportive team on the farm after the physical wear and tear of more than 20 years “living the dream” on a farm. He still is thankful for lessons learned at Proctor, more than three decades later. Emmett’s daughter, Anisha, was accepted at Proctor but will attend Northfield Mount Hermon. He is excited for Anisha to begin her own independent school journey, and has been impressed by how New England boarding school culture has evolved to become more inclusive. Emmett cannot wait for the next Proctor reunion and sends his love!

Aaron Hirsch ’90

Weston, MA Aaron writes, “I’m not a fan of ‘reply all,’ but I’m breaking my own rules!” He has found it great to connect with other alumni recently, and he is looking forward to gathering in person soon. Aaron is currently finishing his 17th year at The Cambridge School of Weston (MA), where he lives on campus with his family and serves as the Dean of Student Life. Kristin, Aaron’s wife of almost 20 years, is also an educator and they have two daughters, Sarah (15) and Amelia (11). Sarah attends Pingree school in South Hamilton, MA, where Kristin works. Amelia is navigating her first year of middle school in Weston. Aaron jokes that if he wasn’t already busy enough, the “void” in his mornings and evenings has recently been filled by a “COVID puppy” named Bernadoodle (the girls call him Bader). They spend summers on Plum Island, and, at the time of writing, Aaron was looking forward to summer 2021 more than any before! He would love to hear from Proctor alumni in the Boston area or the North Shore.

Jeff MacLellan ’90

North Reading, MA Jeff’s immediate family had COVID-19 over the holiday season, but they have since been healthy. His oldest daughter completed her freshman year at Lehigh, another daughter is touring colleges and completed her junior year of high school, and the twins are about to enter high school. Jeff hopes that everyone is beginning to “come out of hibernation.” He stays in touch with Max Corcoran ‘90 but has not seen her in person since a lunch date with her and Caroline Heatley ‘91 in summer 2019. Jeff’s family has been lucky enough to spend time through the years with Wendy (Casey) Rolfe ‘89 at her place in Sugarloaf. Wendy often visits Jeff and family in Wolfeboro in the summers. Jeff spent a couple of powder days “playing hooky” with Chris Bremer ‘91 in Stowe and another day clearing forest land on Brooks Holmes’ ‘91 property. He thinks Dave Pilla would have been happy with the results. Jeff is happy and grateful to be healthy, he is hopeful for the future, and he hopes Proctor alumni are healthy!

John Matijevic ’90

Miami, FL John is fully vaccinated, and, at the time of writing, his life in Florida was beginning to return to some semblance of normalcy. He has transitioned into retirement, and he is living his best life everyday! John is scheduled to compete in an Ironman 70.3 on December 12. As lounges and restaurants opened up, Jeff was enjoying going out again. He hopes everyone is well and asks that alumni living in or traveling through Miami or Florida get in touch.

Josh May ’90

Lewis, CO Josh is still living out west, currently in Salt Lake City, UT. He knows that Chelsea ‘90 and Lans Taylor ‘89 are also in Salt Lake City, but he has yet to see them. During his travels in the summer of 2020, he saw Mike Wilmerding ’90 and Katie Lorentzen ’91. Also, when living in Dolores, Colorado, he ran into Jorie McCann ‘97. Josh follows other classmates and Proctor friends on Facebook. He is working as an outdoor, experiential educator, a career (and educational model) not unfamiliar to the Proctor community! He supports other staff members who lead trips for troubled teenage boys. To recharge, Josh enjoys spending time in the wilderness in the Four Corners region. He wishes everyone in the Proctor alumni community well and hopes they are remembering to “take it easy.” He would love to connect with alumni traveling to Utah to ski or raft and show them around his beautiful state.

Holly Parker ’90

New York, NY Holly recently wrote and published, “Back on the Market: A Realtor’s Guide to Love and Life,” available now on Amazon. She is also an award-winning real estate broker: “Broker #1 2020 on Team Nationwide 2020.”

Susie Schlichting Runge ’90

Aurora, IL Susie and her husband are high school science teachers in Aurora, Illinois. During a particularly challenging year for all teachers, a highlight for Susie were the smaller class sizes at her school. She said teaching ten students reminded her of classes at Proctor. Her average normal class size is 26 students. Susie reports that teachers in Illinois were lucky to get vaccines early, in February. Her husband was able to coach a very

short football season this spring, and her oldest son finished his sophomore year remotely at University of Illinois Urbana-Champaign. Susie’s youngest son finished virtual driver’s education and recently got his license. Unfortunately, they lost their ten-year-old golden retriever last year, but they brought home a new pup last fall. Susie heard that Gregor Makechnie ’90 got a new pup as well! This summer was Susie’s first in six years without graduate work, and she was looking forward to reading a book of her own choice. She loves to read updates from classmates and friends and she thanks the community for sharing. She wishes everyone a safe and happy rest of the year!

Christopher Spitzmiller ’90

New York, NY Christopher recently wrote a book titled, “A Year at Clove Brook Farm,” about a year on his farm in the Hudson River Valley. In this “how-to” book, Christopher encourages others to do some of the same activities that he does in his home and on his farm in Rizzoli, NY such as entertaining, gardening, tending flocks and bees and more. The forward was written by Christopher’s friend, Martha Stewart. After a first printing of 13,000 copies, a second run began on the day of the release. Christopher’s fiancé, landscape architect Anthony Bellomo, opened a store in Millbrook where he sells all sorts of unusual plants, topiary, tropicals and things for the home, including Christopher’s work (Christopher is also a talented ceramicist). Here is link to the New York Times write-up about the book: https://www.nytimes. com/2021/05/13/fashion/is-he-the-next-marthastewart-not-so-fast-says-martha.html. Signed copies are available through Christopher’s website and Instagram: @christopherspitzmiller.

Chelsea Kittell Taylor ’90

Salt Lake City, UT Chelsea reports that she and Lans Taylor ‘89 are doing well. The last few years Lans has been teaching courses and leading field trips for geology professionals. This work stopped during the pandemic, and they hope the courses will restart soon. In the meantime, Lans has occupied himself with skiing every day, all season long! Chelsea got her Master’s in Social Work last year, and she has been working as a social worker at the local cancer hospital where she loves her work. Their oldest son is attending the University of Utah, and their younger son, Ezra, graduated from Proctor in the class of 2021. He enjoyed his time at Proctor, and, at the time of writing, Chelsea expected it would be bittersweet watching him graduate. She misses the Proctor alumni community and looks forward to the next in-person reunion!

John Turner ’90

Ipswich, MA John is living in Ipswich on the North Shore of Massachusetts. He loves staying in touch with many alumni on Facebook and shares, “for some reason you all seem to be a lot older than I remember?” To John, a few people don’t seem to age, Max, Amy, and Darryl being just a few examples. John stays in touch with Proctor alumni Zach Volpicelli ‘90 and Alissa Van Nort ‘91. He also has found older alumni and even parents of current students on the North Shore. Dave Lloyd ‘76 runs the local grocer, and John loves hearing his stories about Proctor in the ‘70s. John has had a varied professional career, first running the IT department at Brandeis University for 17 years and then working for tech companies in the commercial world. Most recently, he was part of a small Palo Alto startup that was purchased by VMware just in time for COVID! His three girls are growing fast. His oldest is a sophomore at Miss Porters, his middle daughter will be a freshman at St. Timothy’s school in Maryland this fall, and his youngest is starting sixth grade at Brookwood in Manchester, MA. For fun the family spends as much time as possible on the water or at the beach, and they head north in the winter to ski. John cannot wait to see more alumni in person!

Liz Webb Green ’91 and Amy Poulin ’90

Needham, MA and Franklin, NH Liz and Amy enjoyed a lazy July afternoon at the Proctor Pond, an annual tradition. Liz reports, “It was great to be back home together at Proctor and, as always, it was so beautiful! We even saw Sarah (Rowe) McIntyre’s ‘90 husband and kiddo. We will next meet at the ski night, another annual tradition.”

Katie Lorentzen ’91

Grand Junction, CO Katie writes, “holy mackerel-cow 30th,” and shares that she has had many moments to reflect during the pandemic, and many of them included “you,” her fellow Proctor alumni.

Jeremy Stowe ’92

North Kingstown, RI Jeremy is already looking forward to his next reunion. He has been fortunate to be able to visit campus over the past four years as his youngest daughter continued the family Proctor tradition, graduating in the class of 2021. He writes, “she will carry the PA torch for our family for another generation.” While Jeremy was sad to see her time at Proctor come to a close, he still plans to visit regularly. It was a true gift to reconnect with classmates who work on campus, as well as with other alumni who are Proctor parents. To those of you he has not seen for a long time, know that he thinks of you often and that your names come up in conversations with other alumni from the late ‘80’s and early ‘90’s. Again, he hopes his classmates will consider returning to campus for reunion season 2022. And, if you are visiting Rhode Island, Jeremy encourages alumni to contact him.

Ted Hudson ’96

Westminster, CO Ted Hudson ‘96 and wife Allie Newell welcomed a baby boy, Hendrik Adler Hudson, into their family on November 5, 2020. He writes, “We are thrilled to announce the birth of our son. He is born into a peaceful family, a healing nation, and into a world that we know holds promise for all of humanity.”

Erin Hinkley Shaffer ’97

Bellingham, WA Erin sends her greetings from the Pacific Northwest where life in Bellingham, WA has been busy. Her son is now twelve and her daughter is ten. Erin’s husband is a middle school librarian, so all four family members have been working from home and attending school remotely. As a high school counselor, Erin’s work during the pandemic has been challenging, with only one two-week in-person period, but she shares a few recent highlights. This summer Erin saw her parents, Dani and Bert Hinkley, and her brother Jed ‘99 during a camping trip in Utah. Everyone is healthy and has remained busy. Erin tries to spend as much time outside as possible, and she loves staying in touch with her Proctor friends via Zoom calls. Erin would love to connect with anyone who would like to meet up!
