Alumni Reunion Review 2009

I just wanted to pass along to everyone that was involved with the planning and arrangements for the Class of '59 50th Reunion last week my personal thanks for a job well done. Yoshie and I really enjoyed the festivities and meeting some of my old classmates. You even did a good job with the weather. Thanks again and we look forward to the next one.

Regards, Jerry Ziarno ’59

 

Just a note to say how much my children and I enjoyed the 2009 Alumni Reunion. We had a wonderful time on the ME-EM boat cruise and at the Awards dinner. Thank you for all the planning and hard work that goes into such an event!
