In other happy news, Ron Grossman’s daughter Rebecca was married July 27, 1996. She is teaching in New Orleans, where her husband, Ross, is in his second year at medical school. Both are Bucknell grads, and Ron reports that “At least the school has orange as one of its colors.”

Steve Ranney recommends an excellent 50th birthday plan (while recognizing most of us are only looking fondly back at such an event). He chartered a 52-ft. sailboat for a week in the Virgin Islands. A crew of two – skipper & mate (cook) sailed Steve, wife Linda, and children Chris (24) and K.C. (21) through the British islands.
