From Jessica:
We have several updates from the class
of 2004. I myself have moved back to the Lehigh
Valley area and am residing in Martins
Creek. My mailing address has changed but
my e-mail will stay the same so please keep
sending me all your updates. I am currently
working for Berks County Adult Probation
and Parole, doing intensive treatment with
multiple DUI offenders. I sometimes have
court sessions with a fellow Moravian alumnus,
Judge Arthur Grim ’64.
Josh Miller graduated from East
Stroudsburg University this past August
and is now teaching math at Perkasie High
School, where he also coaches football and
track and fi eld.
Amy Lawrence is now Amy Neiderer; she
“The Internet is not forever,”
warns Mary Flynn ’06. “Sooner
or later, it will collapse, and we
don’t know when or how.” That
would be a painful experience
for many of us. But for Mary,
who’s pursuing a master’s
degree in library and information
studies at Montreal’s McGill
University, the prospect of
countless electronic fi les
vanishing into nothingness holds
special terrors. “There’s a big
push for archives to go digital
these days,” she says. “But it
would make me nervous not
to have the originals around.”
Fortunately, she adds, there
are plenty of archivists who
appreciate the value of vintage
relics.
Mary was back on campus
earlier this year to research a
paper on Moravian missions.
“The Moravians had a real
‘book’ culture,” she says. “Their
missionaries were the fi rst
to write in native languages,
and they left amazing records,
translations, and diaries.” A
French and English history major
at the College, Mary says a bent
towards conservation seems to
have been a constant in her life:
was married on July 8, 2006, to Brian Neiderer
in Gettysburg, Pa. Fellow Moravian alumni
in the wedding were bridesmaid Andrea
Frankenfi eld and usher Steve Hartenstine.
The couple honeymooned in the San Juan
Islands off the coast of Washington state.
Kim Hughes and Justin Bennett
planned to tie the knot on July 14, 2007. The
couple has been engaged since May 2006.
Jamison Licausi and Rachel Kyria are
currently living in Providence, R.I. Jamison
works for Morgan Stanley, and Rachel will
be graduating in May from Boston University
School of Law.
Hilary Wyant graduated this past May
from Centenary College with a master’s
degree. She is currently an elementary
school counselor for the Phillipsburg School
District.
Lauren Pany, who currently resides in
Doylestown, Pa., is working for Novartis
Pharmaceuticals as a pharmaceutical sales
representative.
Jennifer Brief is currently teaching
third graders at Hartshorn Elementary in
Short Hills, N.J.

“I still have most of the books
I used in college, and all my
assignments from college and
high school,” she says. While
McGill’s size took some getting
used to after Moravian’s more
intimate environment —“I was
spoiled by the small classes
at Moravian,” she notes—her
studies there bring her in contact
with some amazing objects. “I’ve
been able to see and touch some
of the fi rst prints by William
Blake,” she says. “I’m a big
fan. I even have a tattoo of his
artwork.”
