Class Notes

From Jay:

I hope this publication finds everyone happy and healthy during this crazy pandemic. I have had some free time during this quarantine and have been working on digitizing my original MWC slide shows from 1986 and ’87. I plan to make this project available to everyone at some point. The original slide shows were stored in my old darkroom at my parents’ house and are in relatively good condition, still sitting in the slide carousels!

Social media has reduced the number of updates I have received over the years. Please share an update for publication in the next issue.

Arlene Fierstien Klapproth wrote that she had completed 16 months of treatments and was in remission for stage 4 breast cancer. She has volunteered for the local humane society for 10 years and recently began fostering kittens, a source of joy and purpose when times were tough. Last November, Sandy Bradecamp Sullivan, husband Marty, Jenn Menson Radich, and Lianne Wilkens Best surprised Arlene for her birthday by coming to take her to lunch. Arlene wrote, “MWC friends are the best!”
