CLASS OF 1951

 
April 2009
Darrell Hutchinson – Oro Valley AZ

I always enjoy perusing the newsletter, looking for news of classmates of 1951 or nearby years.  We have been escaping the Ohio winters for ten years and certainly enjoy the Arizona winter climate.  We still have our home in Powell OH.  This September, Fran and I will celebrate 52 years of marriage.  I do “retired guy” things and play some golf.  Fran keeps busy in her art studio.  We have four kids and eight grandkids.  We are both fortunate to have good health.  Sometimes we get together with a few classmates when we are in Powell.  We are overdue for a gathering.  If you are in the Tucson area, give us a call.

Barbara Short Hogan – Hailey ID 

I retired at the age of 71 – sold the Hailey Hotel for good.  I still live in Hailey but hope to retire south.  Too cold!  My three kids, Steve, Doug and Scott are all well.  I have six grandsons, Ryan, Patrick, Evan & Shaun, Jake and Max.  They are 15, 15, 13, 12, 10 and 9.  Great kids.  I was vice president for two years of the Hailey Chamber of Commerce and on the board for four years.

Hey, 1951 Bexley grads. Anyone interested in emailing? I’m in touch (via computer) with Jim Shockey, Dexter Strawther, Darrell Hutchinson, Louie Goldstein and Julia Collins. I’d love to add you to that list. Email me at nrohr@aol.com.
 
January 2008
Lawrence Pepper – Columbus OH

I’m 76 years old now and it makes me sad that so many of my classmates have died. I’m looking forward to our 60th reunion in 2010. I’m still working and am in fairly good health, for which I’m thankful. I enjoy visiting my daughter and two grandchildren in Clarksville TN.
 
September 2007
Alan Weiler – Powell OH

Still in the insurance business. Much too young to retire. We live on the Scioto River, just north of the zoo. Two children and 5 grandchildren live nearby with one child and grandson in Boston. Vic Woods ’49 has joined our agency. Although we live in Delaware County, Bexley is still our hometown.
 
March 2006
Joan Dickinson Duemer – Houston TX

I send this on the eve of driving to Tubac AZ to visit my two sisters, Frances Dickinson Morrisey ’45 and Ruth Dickinson Koester ’49, and their husbands at their winter homes.  Everyone is fine and enjoying the warmth when away from Missoula MT and Elmira NY respectively.  Walt and I have a busy May with three grandchildren graduating from college.  We will take August off to drive to the mountains of Colorado, out of the heat of Texas.

Christine Schumacher Elder – Knoxville TN

I am so sorry to report that our dear Bill passed away from lung disease on December 2, 2005.  He had been on full-time oxygen since February 2000.  Please keep our families in your prayers.
