Class Notes

Hello from your new Class of ’89 agent. I was thrilled to hear from several people and find some old friends.

I live in Manassas, Va., with my husband and our five teenagers. My stepdaughter, Kiauna, is a sophomore at UMW, and my husband, Mike, is finishing a degree at the Stafford campus. I’m going on my 22nd year as a software engineer in Springfield, Va., and enjoy playing flute with the Prince William Community Band and boating on the Potomac River.

Sharon Perry Fuller and husband Jim, who live in Richmond’s West End with their two bulldogs, enjoyed a summer trip to Barcelona and Mallorca, Spain. Sharon is in her 16th year with Royall & Company, which helps colleges and universities recruit students. Michele Linden Scherdin retired from the entertainment business, is a part-time personal trainer, and spends time with her husband and children Regan, Justin, Ryan, and Jaime in New Orleans. Anastasia Shirley Carson, who teaches art in Gastonia, N.C., and husband Paul were looking forward to moving to Asheville, N.C. Daughter Ally (my goddaughter) is a freshman at Wake Forest University. Their youngest, Nadia, is still at home.

Bruce Newcomer has lived in the Fredericksburg area since graduation, taught in Spotsylvania County for 22 years, and was recently accepted to Biltmore Who’s Who. David Richards, associate professor at Pennsylvania College of Technology, has taught physics and astronomy there since 1995. He earned a doctorate in instructional systems at Penn State in August 2010 and lives in Montoursville, Pa., with his wife and two children. Beth Mazza Robertson moved with her family from Fairfax, Va., to San Carlos, Calif., with a stopover in Colorado, following her husband’s promotions at Gazillion Entertainment. Beth, a stay-at-home mom of two, is active in the PTA.

 Look for the next Class Notes deadline in this issue and please let me know how you are doing!
