Under Ray Becker's leadership, we have developed a plan to announce the deaths of classmates and publish their official obituaries as quickly as possible.
When we learn of the death of a classmate, we will verify the death and then immediately send an email as well as post it on the class website.
Allan Munro, our class secretary, will contact the surviving family members, and get approval of an obituary from the appropriate parties. He will send a copy of that obituary to the College for publication in the Dartmouth Alumni Magazine.
However, because the Magazine has limited space, and their publication schedule has a long leadtime, the official obituary may not be printed for months after the fact. Therefore, Allan will email this information to all class members, including wives and widows for whom we have current email addresses.
We hope that this process will be helpful and respectful to all concerned.
This list below indicates 124 known classmates who have passed away as of December 21, 2009. It is in chronological order, starting with the most recent.
We are still missing obituaries, eulogies or any facts about 20 classmates.
They are (in chronological order, most recent first): Will Hartfeldt, Richard William Walker, Jr, Hugh Kelly, Dave Barker, Bob Canton, Phil Swaim, Larry Hurlburt, Bob Walker, Mike Williams, Al Snider, Dan Johnson, John Carson, Walt Vincent, Ken Van Kleeck, Mike Monks, Marty Glickman, Erwin Butler, John Capper, Al Samuels and Jim Hernander.
Each are indicated in the list below in chronological order.
If you have ANY information about (1) the passing of a classmate; (2) the 20 classmates indicated above; or (3) newsworthy notes to add to an existing obit, we would be very grateful if you would contact Ray Becker, Al Munro or Jim Bybee as soon as possible, so the above outlined process can begin in a timely manner.
