  • Mets catcher Choo Choo Coleman was once asked, “What’s your wife’s name? And what’s she like?” Choo Choo answered, “Her name is Mrs. Coleman, and she likes me.” The following long-awaited update came from Kevin Greaves ‘90, but he didn’t mention his wife’s name. I believe she attended an alumni weekend several years back, but I don’t remember her name. Then it struck me that her name, obviously, is “Mrs. Greaves”: “Well the short version is my life has twisted and turned over the last 11 years. I got married in May 1993. Had a little girl (Rowan - 1/3/94). Moved back to New York to work as a Safety Consultant. Bought a house in Port Jervis, NY 4/99. Had another little girl (Colleen - 6/2/99). Am presently working as a safety consultant for the public schools in Orange County NY.”
  • I’m not sure how many pre-Internet alumni ever see this website, but I received a note from David Swedlow ‘67, and he is seeking classmates for a possible reunion. He provided me with contact information, as well as the following personal information: “Occupation: IT/Educational Consultant, for several clients, including Cleveland Scholarship Programs, Inc. Family: Married (now) to Cheryl Bass Swedlow (childhood friend since 1950) who is a dance/musical theatre artist-in-residence at the Cleveland School of the Arts. I have five children: Jennifer (31), a school guidance counselor, married to David (a logistics analyst) with grandson Matthew (1). Stephanie (27), an assistant stock broker, married to David (an automobile salesman), expecting a daughter in September. Kara (24), an engineer (CalTech) who is now taking a four-year international teaching fellowship based in Denmark. Rachel (18) graduated high school and will attend Bowling Green State Univ in Ohio this fall for education. Josh (16) HS junior-to-be and very active in musical theatre.”
  • Fresh off the presses, Mike and Aileen Miller are new parents, and their daughter apparently already has more hair on her head than Barry Regan and Jason Haarman: “Aileen gave birth to a beautiful baby girl on Sept 1. Anastasia Helen Miller came into the world at 3:00 PM (yes, exactly 3:00). She was 19″ long, weighed 6 lbs 14 oz, and has a full head of hair.”
  • Karl Oestreich is still involved with the fraternity at the International Headquarters and also with the NYKT chapter. He is living in Eastern Pennsylvania and working in New Jersey. In a blast from our collegiate past, he and I recently went to a John “Dr. Dirty” Valby show in New Brunswick, NJ. I’m not sure if I’m proud or ashamed, but it was fun.
