As this picture proves, Middlesex was well represented at the second annual “Run for Amy,” held at Appleton<br />

With a new travel agency business underway, Emily Griswold Larkin ’96 escorted a group to Machu Picchu,<br />

which was “an experience of a lifetime,” she attests.<br />

and Rodey coached their team to a<br />

second-place finish. We had a great<br />

time catching up and talking about<br />

our years playing for Middlesex<br />

hockey!”<br />

Emily Griswold Larkin writes,<br />

“I am excited to be building a new<br />

travel agency business, which is the<br />

perfect fit for me. I am living at<br />

home in Easton, MD, and sending<br />

people to Europe, the Caribbean,<br />

and beyond—and I even had the<br />

opportunity to escort a group to<br />

Machu Picchu, which was an experience<br />

of a lifetime. My two boys<br />

are growing so fast that I even have<br />

one at boarding school now! Hope<br />

to spend more time in Massachusetts<br />

in the coming years. Best<br />

to everyone!”<br />

older siblings, Lily (4) and Reeves<br />

(2), who are reportedly “smothering<br />

him with love.”<br />

Gray, Townsend Bancroft, John<br />

journey. We are older and softer,<br />

but our shared love of juvenile<br />

humor and group hugs keeps us<br />

going back.”<br />

I write this class update with<br />

a heavy heart since we lost<br />

our friend and classmate, Jen<br />

McLernon Bjercke, on June 28<br />

after a long and courageous battle<br />

against cancer. Jen’s light will<br />

continue to shine brightly in all<br />

of us who loved her dearly and<br />

miss her so much.<br />

In May, the class of 1998 celebrated<br />

the 20th reunion in Boston<br />

at Bully Boy Distillers (owned<br />

Classmates traveled from as far<br />

away as Hong Kong, London,<br />

California, Utah, and New York<br />
