Class Notes

Greetings from Madison, Conn.

Caitlin Jenkins, husband Jason, and son Paul of Los Angeles welcomed new baby Edith Louise. Nicole Dumas Powell gave birth to Berklee Reese, who joins big brother Jaxon, earlier this year. Lauren Dwyer Lowther, husband Brandon, and son Tommy welcomed Richard Robert (“Ricky Bobby”) in April. Jen Carter Tsimpris, a continuing care retirement community social services manager, husband Basil, and son John Landon live in Henrico, Va.

Sean Tuffy and wife Lorraine celebrated Ed Kriete’s marriage to Zoey in San Francisco. Sean planned to visit Napa Valley to sightsee and interview at Opus One, hoping to introduce the wine to the Dublin market. Adrien Snedecker Dickerson’s son, Simon, 2, and Victoria Blevins Chisholm’s son, Alistair, were voted “most likely to be freshman roommates at Mary Washington.” Adrien, Victoria, Ashley Braidwood and husband Robb Braidwood ’99, Darien Berkowitz Jacobson, and Katie Shea Britton attended Tad Czyzewski ’97’s wedding, with all the kids in tow!

We should’ve included these updates previously: Jeremy Blain, wife Jennifer, and children Ellen, Jason, and Collin of San Antonio welcomed fourth child Ryan Michael last year. The children of the Blains and those of Jen Belote attend the same preschool. Ryan Forbrich’s twin boys, Carter and Cole, are 5. He met up with Jason Fusaro, Craig Gillian, Ben Phelps, and Kevin Byrne at UMW soccer coach Roy Gordon’s Hall-of-Fame induction.

Soon we’ll celebrate our 15th reunion at Mary Washington. The days of planning our weekends on Wednesdays are behind us, so mark your calendars for May 31 through June 2! We email update requests prior to their due date in the alumni office. If you’re not getting these emails, please let us know! In updates, please include your name (including maiden name) and, if you married another Mary Washington alum, give us their graduation year, too. Thanks!
