Walt Burnett wrote that after 34 years, he has come down for the last time from his North Carolina mountain, having closed on his home there in July 2023, and is now comfortably ensconced in his independent living residence at Broadmead in Cockeysville, Maryland. Walt said he has gotten involved in several activities at Broadmead. He also enjoys the Baltimore Symphony and Everyman Theatre and serves as a board member of the Broadmead Chapter of the Maryland Continuing Care Residents Association. Walt has kept up with his traveling this past year, though largely family oriented, much of which centered around a big family reunion on Monhegan Island off the coast of Maine. Walt also worked in a visit to Wesleyan.

In December, Alan Brooks caught up with Tom Young at a basketball tournament at Berkshire School, where Tom taught for many years. Tom related how he and Dave Darling regularly visited Fred Stone, their baseball teammate at Wesleyan, after Fred had his debilitating stroke. Tom sent Alan a packet of wonderful testimonials of Fred from his funeral service in February 2023. (Fred’s obituary can be read on the Portland Press Herald website, pressherald.com).
