Bob Dwyer’s oldest daughter Quinn was married earlier this year, but we haven’t received many reports about the wedding. I’m just guessing, but this may be because it was all just a blur. I’m sure Bob was the proud father. We will have to see if we can obtain a copy of the toast he presented at the reception. I hope everyone is doing well and we hope to be scheduling another 7W9 gathering so stay in touch.

I hope everyone had a nice Christmas and the 2016 year will be everything you want it to be. Think back 35 years. We were counting down the days to finally graduating! What comes to mind about those days? Everybody was in the job hunting mode. The light was definitely was getting brighter at the end of the tunnel. I remember the trips to Widener University with Tommy Flynn, Joe Kropp, Tom Jenkins, and Tom Konopka. Tom Collins getting everybody down to Pagnoni’s in Ridley on Thursday nights. Having lunch at the Locust Crest, popcorn at Stanley’s in Delaware. Chasing the girls at Our Lady of Angels College. Probably putting that Italian restaurant in the Springfield Mall out of business after we show up for the $7 all you can eat buffet on Monday nights. Let me know what you remember? Again, it has been very quiet from you guys. I need to hear from you so, please drop me an email or phone call. There was no gettogether in November but, hopefully, we can meet up in the spring. I will be in touch as we get closer. As always, remember the school and try to visit. Keep in touch through the school’s website. Where is Bob Antonelli, Tom Blaker, Tom Donohue, Alan High, and Jay Baldwin…?

I hope all of you had a very nice Christmas and rang in the New Year with style. The months are flying by now at a pace never experienced. Remember when we would commiserate about how long our “three year sentence” was? Looking back, that was just a virtual blink of an eye. Cherish every day gentlemen for immortality wasn’t on Doc Keller’s menu. I am very proud to announce that Misha and I will be grandparents in 2016. Awesome feeling for sure! I am sure many of you have already experienced that great joy. I look forward to it with a huge amount of anticipation. There has to be a few of us that are rapidly approaching retirement. I would love to hear from you so I can pass that super news on to the rest. I become eligible in late June of ’16, but will more than likely stay on for a period of time after. The thought of leaving the workforce at 55 years old is great, but the reality of it is there is a great deal of work yet to be done. I will look to complete that work in a timely fashion! So…please drop me a line and let me know of your plans. I will now bid you all adieu until the next edition which I promise not to miss! Spring 2016 will be upon us before we know it! Be well my brothers and please take care. I look forward to hearing from you very soon. Steve Spiese Sr. B-80 97 W Kevin Welde 25 W.

I am sure everyone has their resolutions and expectations for what a New Year can offer. One of my goals this year is to set up a couple gatherings for our class. We need to get together and network. It is important to keep relationships intact and help each other out when we can. There are plenty of opportunities to do so with fellow alumni during alumni events: https://www.williamson.edu/alumni/ events/ A few that come to mind are: Tentatively June 6, 2016: Williamson Alumni Golf Outing — This event is at Paxon Hollow Golf Club and is usually the first Monday in Jun K
