FALL 2011 . ST. LAWRENCE UNIVERSITY MAGAZINE 41
Cl as s Notes
younger ones, Caroline and Wally, are still there.
All play (or played) women’s lacrosse. Avery (who
graduated last year) and Wally also play/ed soc-
cer. My wife, Meg, and I are traveling to Beijing
in September with Caroline, who besides playing
lax is representing the USA in the TriathlonWorld
Championships.”
Loe Berelson reports, “alas, I’m ever the
same.” She’s still in NewYork City.
Alex Chamberlain writes, “Like many of our
classmates, I am a first-time grandfather.” Lilley
Barbara Anders lives only 10 minutes away. As
chaplain for the heart center at St. Luke’s Regional
Medical Center in Boise, Idaho, he’s responsible
for their intensive care units and is on the Ethics
Committee.
Holly Fraser Wylie says her daughter, Eliza-
beth, graduated in May from Azusa Pacific Univer-
sity as a marketing major. “It brought back many
pleasant memories of my own graduation, minus
the snow,” she commented. After retirement after
24 years at Aetna, she has been doing children’s
ministry for 10 years.
Patty Fitzgibbons and Mick Heller are
pleased to report that son Mathias was valedic-
torian from St. Stephen’s and St. Agnes School in
Alexandria,Va., in June. He’s at Brown this fall; he
was accepted early decision!
Kit Michael Dale, who lives in Baltimore, Md.,
ran into Amy Mellencamp while in Burlington,
Vt. Kit says, “she looks exactly the same—not
a single wrinkle!” Kit’s son Ted graduated from
Champlain College and works with troubled ado-
lescent teens at a residential facility.
Chris Owen practices law in a small firm in
White Plains, N.Y. He says he is “playing plenty of
music, both classic rock and acoustic… Had played
for years with Billie Jann and Pete Montan
(who sadly passed away two years ago.) We had
some great times doing Tull cover bands (actually
played JethroTull ‘conventions’) among many other
musical endeavors. My oldest son, a senior, turned
down SLU for Ithaca College—BOO!!! Still have
my young son, a 10th-grader, to work on.”
My fellow Clevelander, Josie Lowden Chap-
man, is so excited that her youngest child,George,
is at St. Lawrence this fall. Her oldest son, Philip,
graduated from Wheaton College in June and is
headed to England this fall to teach lacrosse for
the ELL (English Lacrosse League) for nine months.
Josie and her family travelled to Sanibel Island,
Fla., over Memorial Day weekend, to her parents’
home, to celebrate her father’s 90th birthday, her
brother George’s (SLU ’73) 60th birthday, her
younger brother’s 50th birthday and her own 30th
wedding anniversary with hubby John, a very busy
lawyer.
Another Clevelander, Pris Menzies Keller,
reports that her oldest son, JT, graduated in June
from Cornell, summa cum laude and Phi Beta Kap-
pa, and is headed to China on a Fulbright Scholar-
ship this fall to study/translate a group of poets
in Chengdu; JT majored in English, with a minor
in Asian studies. Her second son, Gus, is at War-
renWilson College, and worked in Asheville, N.C.,
as a riverkeeper on the Broad River last summer,
and youngest son Cooper is a sophomore at SLU.
Pris, Josie and I, along with five other Cleveland
friends, journeyed to Boca Grande, Fla., in Febru-
ary for tennis, beach time and many laughs (yes, we
had some wine!). So sorry to have missed the SAE
contingent noted earlier in this column. Maybe
next year!
