50 years, Amazing! I always considered myself young, graduating from GNHS at age 16. Well, here's the latest picture of me, as a full fledged graybeard. I retired from active practice of medicine (Reproductive endocrinology, IVF) in 2004, but continue to give lectures on reproductive physiology, hormone action and metabolism and statistics (someone has to do it) to ObGyn residents and medical students in Baltimore. I have stepped up my woodworking activities making furniture for our offspring. As before, the oldest, Andrew is a corporate attorney in Washington, who, with wife Jerri has 2 girls, Edie Rose and Madeline. Our daughter Hayley is an art teacher in a private school in Maryland, is divorced, and has a 4 year old son, Parker. Our youngest son, Bradley, is an ER doc in Philadelphia, who with wife Lynn, has 2 daughters, Anna and Isabelle. Attached is a picture of last year New Year's card showing all the grandkids.Study the picture carefully, there will be an exam.

My wife, Carole (Port Washington NY) makes jewelry which was featured in the museum store of the Walters Art Museum this past year.

We have been accused of going to the dark side by our sailor friends, as we sold “Nocturne”, our Brewer 44 sailboat, and bought a True North 38 power boat, which we named “Gatsby”, which we mostly use on the Chesapeake Bay, but have saluted Kings Point on our way to Newport, RI. We also have a 2 year old black standard poodle, Daisy. (homage to Fitzgerald/Great Neck – we do live on the water, but no green light at our dock).

At any rate, Carole & I look forward to seeing you all at the reunion.
