Class of 1959

Class secretary Caryl-Ann Miller Nieforth reports: “There were 70 class of 59’ers, plus some spouses and children, who returned to campus for their 60th reunion. Good for us! Yet there were 71 on our five-year ‘In Memoriam’ list. Our regrets. The Friday and Saturday night Faculty Club and University Club dinners were delicious. In addition,  our Pembroke Club luncheon under the tent at Maddock featured a talk by our current class of 1959 scholarship recipient, Violet Sackett ’20. Thirty-two women, and a couple of loyal daughters, reminisced about their years on campus and beyond. Our class meeting was chaired by our new president, Diane Scola, who rendered a fitting memorial to our late president of many decades, Clark A. Sammartino. Officers David Merchant  (Treasurer) and Caryl-Ann Miller Nieforth (Secretary) gave reports and Reunion Committeeman and Brown’s Sports Archivist, Peter Mackie, spoke on A Brief History of the Brown Bear. Sunday’s weather was glorious for our class contingent’s procession down the Hill, led by Class Marshals Caryl-Ann and Charlene Ingraham Underhill.”
