After the death of our classmate and Brother, Dave Gendron '64, about 10
years ago, several of us met and decided we should try to get together more
often. After graduation, we met at reunion weekends for several years, but
then family, careers, and so on got in the way. For many years since, the group
has gathered at our place—first in New Hampshire and more recently in
Florida, after we moved here. e invitee list is about a dozen, and we usually
end up with about eight people. It's a couple's event that lasts five or six days.
ese days, there aren't many people who can say they have had friends
for almost 60 years. eta Chi has done that for all of us. Aside from these
annual gatherings, we also meet in smaller groups when we travel. We get
regular attendees from Massachusetts, California, New Hampshire, New
York and Florida, and, it's been a pleasant surprise that the wives all get along
great and have become close friends through these gatherings. A definite side
benefit.
It's true during our time on campus in the '60s we were forming
friendships for life. We just didn't realize it at the time.
Fraternally,
