Class of 1955

Dutch Street Organ

Kevin Sheehan ’55 continues to display his 2 ton Dutch Street Organ that he hauls to rallies on weekends throughout the Northeast.

A Note from God’s Country

Erik Esselstyn ’55 fairly often goes down the road from North Montpelier to Hanover where he’ll share lunch with Mike Mayor ‘55 while attending various functions and Board Meetings in Hanover.  But it’s springtime in northern Vermont and Erik is tending to his rustic surroundings.  He’s “lining up firewood for next year”, doing a lot [...]

Tim Day ’55′s Proud Moment

Tom L’Esperance ’55 writes: “I’m submitting this e-mail from Tim Day to me with his permission.
