22 ALUMNI/AE NEWS Notes from Friends profit health care organization since 1994, serving on committees as an officer and chairman of a fundraising campaign. The mission of Avow is to provide quality end of life care to patients whereby they are pain free, spiritually nourished, and die with a sense of dignity and purpose to their lives. The health care provider also offers grief counseling and bereavement services to the families of the patients. 1959 Dick and Bonnie Forster Richards celebrated their 50th wedding anniversary on August 5. They met at FCS in second grade, started dating in ninth grade and have made a wonderful life together. Their three sons, Whit, David, and Drew, planned a surprise party for them at a nearby resort. All the guests, including their seven grandchildren, kept the secret, and Bonnie and Dick were overwhelmed by the love-filled occasion. 1960 Rich Ulmer is president and CEO of InVitro International in Irvine, Calif. His company, which develops and commercializes non-animal test kits and laboratory services, participated in the Eighth Annual World Congress of Non- Animal Testing Methods in Montreal last August. Ulmer also writes that his first granddaughter is just about to start her sophomore year at UC Santa Cruz. “Needless to say,” he writes, “we don’t feel old enough to have her that far along in school yet. Fondest greetings to all the Class of ’60, and let’s start thinking about a follow up to our great 50th Reunion … how about a 55th?” 1961 Joan Fleischhauer Smith was so sorry to miss her 50th Reunion. She retired in June after 18 years as Upper School Head at Roland Park Country School and 46 years as an educator. “I’m loving retirement!” she writes. “I will continue to do some work for the school, starting with a trip to Korea in September.” 1964 Martin Crabtree writes, “I have felt indebted to the values and education I received at FCS. As a result, my parents and I became attenders of Radnor Friends Meeting. In 1975 I returned to Switzerland and became a high school teacher of English, and I also taught German to exchange students. My wife and I are friends of the Friends, and although we are members of the Swiss Protestant Church, we attend Meeting for Worship every three weeks in our area. In a delicate and inoffensive way I have endeavored to impart the importance of as much peace as is humanly possible into the minds of my students, as well as the merits of a simple way of life. I wish all of my contemporaries everything they need for the future, and I wish FCS, its students, and faculty and staff, all the blessings they need!” 1965 Larry Levin’s first book, Oogy: The Dog Only A Family Could Love, spent 10 weeks on the New York Times Nonfiction Best Seller list after publication in October Reunion 2011 » Class of 1961 » (Front, from left) Ray ay Battey, Joan Belletti, Sally ally Craig, Rich ich Allman, llman, Julie Pontz Curson, and Sally ally Schrader chrader Irving; (middle, from left) Libby Mayer, Betsy Plank Preston, Gay Sharpless harpless Wittenberg, Robert obert Seaman, eaman, and Roger oger Readinger; eadinger; (back, from left) Lynne Iverson Neefe, eefe, Sandy andy Taxin, Pat Mc McAvoy voy Sayre, ayre, Lynn Fisher, Richard ichard Mills, Bruce Newton, ewton, Ann nn Ginshurgh Hofkin, ofkin, and Jacqueline Fields 2010.

Levin’s sons, Noah and Dan, are juniors in college, and his wife, Jennifer, is busy with her law practice as well as being a certified Zumba instructor. Levin is an attorney with International Recoveries, LLC, in Ardmore. Reunion 2011 » Class of 1966 » Marica Kephart ephart Mc McKeon eon
1970 Sherry McVickar has received an increasing amount of attention for her artwork since the launch of her website, barnlady.net. Forty-five of her paintings will be on display at Paoli Hospital this fall, and she will have two solo shows at Montgomery County Community College and Kendal at Longwood. She also speaks often with Carry Cooper, Stephanie Koenig, and Larry Camp.

Korb Eynon Award for Enduring Commitment and Service to Wooster School in Danbury, Conn., this April. As Director of Admissions, Jacks oversaw enrollment increases the past three years, helped create a new program for 3-year-olds, and chaired the search committee for the founding director of the Prospect School, which serves students with learning disabilities at Wooster. Jacks also devoted countless evenings to the review of the school’s mission statement and to the Educational Roadmap Committee this year. Jacks led the creation of new school viewbooks and assisted with the refurbished Wooster website and an online re-enrollment process. In presenting this award, Headmaster Timothy Golding, a former FCS faculty member, remarked, “The tradition of the Eynon Award as stated in the citation is long term investment in Wooster. This year, I am breaking with the pattern of longevity in years to focus on his ‘investment’, and to recognize someone who in three short years has become indispensible to handling the enormous weight of the myriad of new initiatives currently under way at Wooster.” fall/winter 2011 magazine 23
