Chuck Exley shares: “Hello! I recently celebrated my 95th birthday surrounded by friends and family. I moved to Naples, Florida, earlier this year from Sarasota. I am attaching a recent photo from one of the endless, sunny Florida days—out for a visit to a botanical garden with my daughter, Eve. I am not driving cars any longer but love to zoom around in these scooters whenever I can!  Sending my best to my classmates.”

I wish everyone the best in this new year. And, please, send news.

Cliff Milner writes: “At 96, here is all my news! I’m alive after a siege with pneumonia, one week in hospital, and two weeks in nursing home. I’m now at home with lots of caregivers here almost every day! I’m looking forward to feeling 95 again!  

“My five children have blessed me with 20 grandchildren. I have a one-year-old great- grandson and am told to expect another one next year! Unfortunately, many of these kids are scattered all over the place, so don’t see them as much I would like! My wife passed away 10 years ago, but I still live in the house we bought in 1958. My youngest son, Andy, lives with me, and yesterday we had the pleasure of watching the Bills defeat the Detroit team—a very exciting game.

“I retired as a research chemist, more exactly, a product development chemist in 1990, so I’ve been retired as long as I worked!! Obviously, I’d like to squeak in a few more retired years, or am I being too greedy?

“Best wishes to all the readers of this mail!”
