Madelyn Marino married Michael Walker in June. Reverend Jennifer Amore officiated the ceremony and I, Annie Johnston, read a sonnet. Jason Cobb, Jason Lane (’03), Val Quartararo Roy (’02), and Jamie Darcy Nevitt (’02) also attended. We had a blast catching up, reminiscing, and dancing like it was Winterfest 1998. Madelyn and Mike enjoyed two honeymoons: first traveling to South Africa and Mozambique and later driving across the country from Oregon to New Jersey, where they now reside.
