2019 COMMENTS: Hi Everyone!

My life has changed significantly! In April of 2016 I finally was able to sell my consulting business in California but was tied to a transfer clause where I would be an employee of the new company for a 2 year transition period - essentially slavery! At the end of April 2018 I finally was able to transition out/retire. I still spend a few hours a month consulting on an individual basis for a project in Santa Cruz, CA that will be a 27K sf net zero energy building for a non-profit insurance company. It is under construction and is expected to be complete in Jan 2020 or sooner.

To move to Washington State we looked at about 5 properties in Clark County WA - just north of Portland, OR - that we made offers on and withdrew or they decided they didn't like our offer. Finally, in Feb of 2017 we purchased the property in Battle Ground - a 10 acre parcel with a large home with 3 bedroom suites and an apartment - which we eventually hope to have for a caregiver - we are all getting older. The Universe was looking out for us - just had to be patient!!! There are three of us - myself, my brother and another guy long time friend. My partner of 5 years decided in early 2017 not to move up with us and is now living in an assisted living facility in CA. It is beautiful here and we love it. We will do some organic gardening and other miscellaneous efforts.

We spent 4 months getting our 4-plex ready to sell in CA. We hit it just before the RE market started to cool in late September so we will have some reserve funds for retirement - thank heavens!

I am trying to put together my portfolio for my jewelry work - photos and

some descriptions to take to galleries and do commissions for people. I have a nice studio/jewelry room. Some of you may remember I brought a necklace / earring set of my silver and turquoise work for a donation to one of the reunions. I took 2 weeks of workshops in Georgia in September to learn opal faceting and silver wire wrapping jewelry techniques with my cousins Claire and Susan.

I decided recently that I had been out of shape for too long so am now doing fitness sessions twice a week and have started back to ballroom and Latin dancing again for more exercise. I have forgotten a lot and also find I am

not physically as agile as I used to be but it is still fun - even if I'm not that great!

I hope to see you all in March and wish you all good health and that the Universe watches over you!

Stay Happy!

2012 COMMENTS:

I moved to California for a BS in Biology at UC Davis; then to Washington State for a BFA in Fine Arts with secondary teaching certificate in biology, chemistry and physics; moved to Southern California for my MFA and teaching – which I did very little of because of the economy. After several years working in construction, I migrated to Northern California and a position with Stanford University where I managed large real estate projects. After 11 years at Stanford I left for a position to manage the Real Estate and Construction for the City of Mountain View (where Google is located) for 7 years. While working at the City I took a Masters Degree in Systems Management – a business degree focused on organizational management. I then became half owner of Facilities First (trusted advisors in facilities professional services and software) in 1995 and am still there as CEO. We had our best year to date in 2011. I’m not sure when I will transition to another endeavor.

I have traveled internationally to a number of countries and have as a goal to visit as many of the wonders of the world as I can. Having done a lot of different kinds of art work including ceramics, textiles, metal sculpture and personal collage - for the past 15 years or so I have been making jewelry with semiprecious stone, silver and gold. After the 2002 reunion I started to learn ballroom and Latin dancing and have been doing it ever since – it is addictive and great exercise!

My brother and I have lost both parents now, but thankfully have remained pretty healthy. I don’t have children, but have nephews with two grand nephews and two grandnieces. I have been looking for the last love of my life, but so far he has eluded me. I am happy and content being solo and look forward to many more fruitful and fun years!

2002 COMMENTS:

Hi Everyone, Since High School, I have been dabbling in lots of things including three

marriages - yes 3, which I didn't take lightly but some others did... resulted in no children, but I have a wonderful grand nephew and lots and lots of relatives. I am single now and have been for over two years. I have a BS in Biology from the University of California and took teaching certificates to teach high school biology, physics and chemistry - none of which I ever ended up teaching full time. I did residential real estate until I went back to school in fine arts - textiles and weaving, later a Masters in Sculpture - one of those marriages moved me back to California from Washington State. I worked in Construction and have a General Contractor's license (inactive now) and had my own tile setting business.

Long story short - I worked as a Senior Project Manager at Stanford

University for 11 years, worked for the City of Mountain View as their Real Estate and Capital Program Director for 7 years, now have my own company for 8 years (4 of which I have been actively involved) and have 25 employes = we provide project management and staffing in the facilities arena to companies in the Bay Area, CA. The business climate is very tough right now, but we

are holding our own! One of the big jobs we have is to consolidate two campuses of Philips Semiconductor into one campus over a 1.5 year timeframe web site is www.facilitiesfirst.com.

When I was 50 I went back to school for a Masters Degree in Systems

Management (and Organizational Development), a business degree with people in mind rather than an MBA with mostly finance in mind - great experience!

I have done some travelling and have renovated several homes. My brother

(single too) and I live in the same condo complex and have some good friends - went gold mining in Idaho last year and some mineral hunting this year. I do beading as an avocation with silver and gold and semiprecious beads. It helps through the tough times and (and my expensive fitness trainer!) helps beat the stress.

My brother and I have been struggling with aging parents the past few years.

Mom died in July. My dad (in assisted living) now has his meds balanced and is a joy to be around at 85 - great sense of humor.

Looking forward to seeing everyone!

2012 COMMENTS: After graduation, I attended Oberlin College (Doc. Blanchard's alma mater) graduating in 1966 with a B.M. in Bassoon Performance. I then played 3 years in the New Orleans Symphony where I met my wife, Kathleen Kella a violinist. We were married in 1969 and have since played together in The Louisville Orchestra (KY), the Honolulu Symphony (Hawaii and Kathy's home town), the Orquesta Nacional de Mexico (Mexico City, Mexico), the Minnesota Orchestra (Minneapolis), the Detroit Symphony, and Michigan Opera Theatre. In 1992, I began working as Technical Supervisor for the Michigan Piano Company working on the rebuilding and restoration of fine older pianos. I pursued this as well the orchestral performance with the bassoon until recently.

We have two children. Jonathan, who with his wife, is teaching in Connecticut and Kristen who is here with us working toward a degree in Biochemistry and Nutrition.

In 2004, I was diagnosed with ALS (Lou Gehrig's disease). I am currently in a power wheelchair all the time, and though the disease is progressing very slowly, it does mean that traveling back to Concord for the reunion is not possible. It sounds as though you have a wonderful time planned and I wish all of you the best.

NAME: Richard Frambach SPOUSE: Mary E (Steele) ADDRESS: 3 New Orchard Road Epsom, NH 03234 PHONE: (603) 736-9439 EMPLOYMENT: Retired 2012 COMMENTS: I guess that we never think about our time in high school until later in our lives. I haven't thought of names like Bulldog Reed, Earl Temple, Mary

Miles or Coach Louti for years. Some of us spent our days wondering if we would ever make through the year, others seemed to sail through with no problem I was born in Jamaica NY. We moved out to Long Island when I was three years old, my family wanted us to get out of the city. When I was a teenager I spent the summers swimming in the Long Island Sound and just hanging with my friends. My family moved to NH in the fall of 1959. I was a little nervous my first day at C.H.S. I didn't know any one in Concord except my cousin Carole Lepine. Then I met a guy named Tom Beauschene. Tom and I hit it off from the beginning and are still best friends. He moved to Kansas after his 23 year hitch in the Navy, but we still keep in touch. He visits NH every few years and we always have a good time. I wasn't able to enlist because of my eye problems, I moved back to N.Y. It didn't take me long to figure out that I was spoiled by the life in NH and I came back a few years later and have been here ever since. I guess you can call me a transplant, but I feel more like a native.

I started working for J.C. Pittman (PITCO Frialator) in Bow in 1966 and retired in 2004. During that time I have had four career changes and spent the last 17 years working in the maintenance dept. I was married in 1970 to Mary Steele from Epsom. She attended Pembroke Academy and graduated from Plymouth State Collage in 1969. She did her Student teaching at Rundlett Junior High and taught Math there for 28 years. She also taught Math at C.H.S. and at Coe-Brown in Northwood to fill in for a teacher who was out on maternity leave. Her last five years was at Newfound Regional H.S. in Bristol. She earned her Masters in 1985 from Antioch and has been active in many organizations. She has served for 15 years as the chairperson of Epsom’s budget committee and three years on the Selectman board. She is currently running for the position of the N.H House of Representatives for District 21, which includes Epsom and Pittsfield. After I retired, I found myself involved in a committee that was trying to save the "Old Free Will Baptist Church" in Epsom. It was to be tom down to make room for a Cumberland Farms store but the committee fought to move it instead. You can find the story on the Epsom Historical Associations' Web sight. I am looking forward to seeing my friends and classmates in the fall.

1992 COMMENTS: The last 30 years: Attended Concord Hospital School of Nursing for 1 year

(wanted to party). Hung around Concord for another working and then went to Colorado Springs (had my first child) for six months then to California (LA area). A year later became a single parent and worked in the data processing field. Thirteen years later moved back to Concord (culture shock), daughter attended and completed high school at Concord High

School. She decided to attend college in the DC area (University of Maryland) so moved to Arlington, VA for 5 years and then was working for VISA, USA, as a computer operator and low and behold I was able to transfer to California - Dorinda had graduated from college and it was time for mother to be out on her own. So here I am in the beautiful Bay Area (San Francisco)

still single, vegetarian, part-time massage therapist, discovering some of life's answers (hope they don't change the questions) and enjoying the journey. Please, if any of you find yourself in this area, PLEASE LOOK ME UP, I love to show people around.
