Class Notes - May/June 2007

Hello '99s! Spring is well underway and we now have just over a year left until we get together again for our tenth year reunion. It's hard to believe how quickly time is flying!

Mona Kotecha has some very exciting news to share. Mona recently was recently engaged to Nikhil Shanbhag (Cornell '99) and the couple plan to marry in early 2008. She writes that, "We met during our time at Yale, where he graduated from law school and I from medical school." Mona is now an anaesthesiology resident at the University of California-San Francisco and Nikhil is an attorney in the city.

Lindsay McOmber Morton writes that Clancy Broxton also some wedding news to report. Lindsay writes that, "Last August in New Hampshire Clancy married Pablo Saelzer in a beautiful, intimate ceremony at the Apple Hill Center for Chamber Music, where they met several summers ago." Several '99s attended the big day, including Doug Morton, Kate Catapano, Melissa Draper, Posy Parsons and Nicole Tsong. Lindsay adds that "the newlyweds live in Washington, D.C., where Pablo conducts several orchestras and Clancy is continuing her work on AIDS prevention in China and Southeast Asia."

Finally, Christopher Showalter that he has welcomed a new addition to his family. He writes that he and his wife, Ainsley, became the proud parents of Tatum Grace Showalter on November 13, 2006. Christopher writes that, "She looks just like her mom [and] is a lot of smiles and giggles."

Congratulations to Mona, Clancy, Christopher and their respective families!

That's all the news for now. I hope you all enjoy the spring weather, and I look forward to hearing any news you might like to share!
