Technical Teaching Assistant/Instructional Support
Mrs. Adler - She made Thoreau exciting ! Mr Karp - I'd never have passed the Social Studies Regents without his help ! Mr. Watthews - He made biology and disecting critters exciting. Mrs York - Her love of music inspired my love in music. Mr. Spelich - I never considered myself an artist until I took his classes. Mr. Schartzer - Believe it or not, he was a blind date my first year in college...talk about embarassing...
I see a Chinese fire drill occuring in the middle of traffic...or go to Thatcher Park...or attend a BC football game...
All the fun we had producing Lil Abner !
Berlin High School 2007 Yearbook... I was advisor...and I really enjoyed doing it.
am a grandmother. Aryn had a baby girl on February 20, 2007 - named Helene. She's beautiful and a joy !
Bucksport, Maine - Our school had an Exchange concert there in April 2007. It is a beautiful place, and the people are so nice and friendly. They opened their hearts and homes to us. I really want to go back there !

Associate Dean of the Faculty, Princeton
Mrs. York - instilled a lifelong love for all kinds of music except opera (sorry!) and taught me enough music theory that I majored in math in college (yes, there's a connection there) Mr. Bozzella - any other "Bozzella's Fellas" out there? Mrs. Pock - anyone else remember that quiz she gave us to see how many of us knew the epithets for various racial, ethnic and/or religious groups? Don't you wish we STILL didn't know most of them? Mr. Hall - WAIT! I've got an IDEA! shhhh - don't tell anyone. Being called "Sister Williams." Mr. Robinson - let me do my AP chem project on organic free radicals, which led me to abandon math in grad school and get a PhD in organic chemistry.
Working at Princeton, BC's colors are EVERYWHERE - seeing people wearing orange and black is downright commonplace around here. Also, my next-door neighbor went to BC (12 years older than we are) and a work colleague did also (alas, 12 years younger than we are). All three of us had Mr. Hall, and our spouses roll their collective eyes when we begin regaling them with stories about him for the hundredth time.
all those music groups - choirs, bands, orchestras.
I was elected as a Fellow of the American Association for the Advancement of Science in 2006. Not bad for someone who's been out of the lab for 13 years. I also serve on the board of trustees for our local watershed association, and the local affiliate of Planned Parenthood.
I've been playing in a rock band with my husband and a bunch of talented neighbors for the past 8 years. The original name for the group was more interesting (The Dadolescents and the Hot Flashers) than the one we have now (The DADZ). The group is much better than we were when we had the better name. Go figure. Have a look at http://www.thedadz.com - the person with the white hair used to have red hair...
Jon and I lived in Belgium for two years (73-75), where we crossed paths with Don Bardole and Maggie Woehrle way back when. It's a charming country, lots of little hidden gems that nobody ever heard of.
"I'm a Man" - either the Spencer Davis Group or the Chicago version "I Want to Take You Higher" - Sly and the Family Stone "Jumpin' Jack Flash" - Rolling Stones "Hold On, I'm Coming" - Sam and Dave (I like the Clapton/BBKing version better) "C C Rider" - I wanna say Mitch Ryder and the Detroit Wheels, but I could be wrong "You Really Got Me" - The Kinks "Shotgun" - Junior Wells "Born to be Wild" - Steppenwolf
At our Adirondack camp, just north of Warrensburg, watching the Hudson River flow southward. Second favorite way is playing in the band - well, maybe that's first during ice season and blackfly season on the Hudson.
I look forward to seeing everyone!

clinical social worker/psychotherapy
mrs. york was my favorite teacher ever and mentor in many ways. i also felt very fortunate to have been in betty crummey's classes.
hearing music always triggers memories -good and not so good- for me.
music, sports and friendships made the rest worthwhile (get the feeling academics didn't hook me back then?) the choir competitions-remember those 6a+, and singing lotti, "crucifixus" in some cathedral?
helped create a life and family constellation that holds great meaning for me. i like to build adirondack furniture and experiment with encaustic (wax-based) painting. life is good.
am a lesbian and also ordained (ucc) minister
seville, spain and county cork ireland
motown, beatles, early folk
kayaking, hiking to waterfalls, building things with wood and "found objects", being part of drum circles..
enjoy each other and the fact most of us are still keeping on. that memoriam list felt sad-good folks.
wishing you and yours all good things !!

Mr Dececco- wasn't he everyone's? Sense of humor, cared aboiut the kids, and created an environment where everone wanted to learn.
Not many reminders anymore. When the kids were in school it was different.
The "sit-in" and the alarms going off in the lockers in our senior year
Have won awards for not only sales production but also community service and furthering personal education
Sing in a band
It may not be the most interesting, but it is the place I return to every summer for 29 years- Saranac Lake. The same week, at the same place, with many of the same people. It is our "summer friends" place. We have watched all of us grow, have children, grandchildren, pass away, and still we all seem to gravitate back to that one special week each year to be with special people.
Whatever anyone else likes is fine with me. Don't have a lot of "favorite" 60's songs.
Wine tasting, dining out, travel, listening to other bands.
No- you guys always have done a great job.
I have contacts nationwide and in Canada through my networking group if anyone needs real estste assistance, either buying or selling. I can connect you with the top agents in your area or any area of relocation! I look forward to October!

Daughter Mallory (just turned 17), junior at Calvary Christian HS. Steps: Kathy (37), marine biologist (B.S. Univ Miami, M.S. Duke), 2 children (3 & 6); Chris (36) computer engineer, FSU & GA Tech
Teaching 2 yr olds at church preschool. Substitute teach PK-12th at Mallory's school.
Mr. DeCecco: he practiced what he preached - "...if you treat a man as he can and ought to be, he may become as he can and ought to be." (p 16, '67 yrbook). I'm sure he meant women as well. Mrs. York for inspiring her students and defining "classiness." Mr. Karp for his wit and fairness. Mrs. Crummey for her compassion and caring. Most especially, Kimball Howes - he put up with a lot from us (joining the "sit down" and not freaking out by the alarm clocks in our lockers during Senior Week)!
I feel my daughter is my proudest accomplishment.
finally figured out what to be when I grow up. This realization is relatively recent (2 years ago). I'm currently working on Master's in Special Education at Columbus State Univ. I'll probably be one of those old ladies who will be written up for graduating at the age of 90!

I would have to say that Mrs. Adler stands out the most. She was strict but she taught me to love lterature. A gift that lasts a lifetime. Although Miss Barnes from grade school also left her mark on my education. I loved the way she read aloud stories....
Gosh, I don't think much about it. I left and didn't look back.
I remember being so shy in high school. As someone else has said. Age does change us. I do a lot of professional development for teachers in Math and Science and I have begun to work with administrators. My first public speaking class in college had me shaking in front of everyone, I know my paper I was reading from shook the whole time... I got over it.
I guess most of you are still back in New York. I lived in Colorado for about 13 years after college and then moved to Washington State, if you have never been here is it beautiful. I have a sister in Isreal so I have been there once, I chaperoned a high school trip to France and England with my husband and two children when they were in high school. I would love to get to Italy-
I like the Bee Gee's
I like to work in my yard, spend time with my grandchildren, remodel homes and play golf (I am married to a golf pro so I guess that has to be on the list)
Delmar seems so far away now, but I know it is a part of me. I get back to New York quite often now that my parents are in their late 80's. They moved to Cooperstown so I don't get to Delmar anymore. I have taken my kids to the Tollgate for old times sake. Terry Foland and I were married for awhile. We share my daughter. He lives in Boulder, CO if any of you want to look him up.

Retired Systems Analyst/Programmer
Mrs York for choir (even in Jr. High); Mrs Jerry, Mrs. Adler, Mrs. Cummings. Guess I'll have to find my yearbook to jog my memory as I'm sure there were others. Is it a sign of Alzheimer's when you can remember the names of your 5th and 6th grade teachers (Mr. Franze and Miss Ives respectively - both great) but can't remember ones from high school?
I head over to Delmar, although it's not that frequently now that I no longer have family living there.
Wow, that's a tough one. Guess I'd have to say going to football and basketball games, especially the rvialries with Shaker High and the basketball sectionals; taking exams in the gym (you didn't say they had to be FUN memories); the non-conventional physics class senior year (taught by a new teacher whose name I can't remember) which had us doing experiments in the halls and outside, much to the dismay of other teachers and the administration. What's wrong with using plunger-equipped carts as skateboards in the halls?; having the party after the senior class play at my parents' house; Senior Week - us girls biking from the jr. high to the high school, the alarm clocks going off simultaneously in the lockers, paying for lunch with pennies, and the sit-in in the student foyer, with Dr. Howe joining in; Senior Slob Day where we actually got to wear clothes (jeans, shorts, t-shirts, sandals) that are now everyday school attire for today's kids. I'm really dating myself, aren't I?
Mostly work-related awards and awards from orgainziations I've worked with. Nothing particularly noteworthy like a Pulitzer, an Emmy, or even the Lottery!
Again, this is a tough one as I've been very fortunate to do a bit of traveling: trips to most Western European countries, all major Mexican beach resorts (plus a few more out of the way), most major Caribbean islands . Most unusual were Ambergris Caye, Belize where golf carts & bikes are the most common mode of transportation; Roatan, Honduras where private yachts (some with helicopters) anchored off-shore are a stark contrast to sub-standard residences most locals live in; Macuto, Venezuala where police patrol with sub-machine guns & a parking ticket is a huge decal slapped on driver's side of the windshield so everyone knows you parked illegally (might be a way to cure parking violations in the States). It's hard to forget doing a helicopter tour of the Thousand Islands when halfway across St. Lawrence River major engine problems developed. Made for an extremely interesting ride & landing at Kingston, Ontario ariport. My favorites: Hawaii & Bonaire for snorkeing; Britain, Ireland, Germany, & Holland for sights & history; & just about any beach, even when subjected to a 6.2 earthquake!
There's lots that come to mind but songs by The Righteous Brothers, The Letterman , & The Beach Boys; "Light My Fire" by the Doors (primarily because they played at college freshman orientation); and all of those good dance tunes for things like the Twist, Mashed Potatoes, Stroll, and Swim!
Planning and taking trips to all kinds of places, gardening, working on home projects, getting together with friends.
Thanks so much to the reunion committee for doing all this, especially taking on the challenge of trying to locate almost 350 people after 40 years. Unfortuantely I'll "be in dentention" in AZ during the reunion as we had already booked a trip to Sedona and the Grand Canyon prior to hearing about the reunion, so I won't get a chance to visit with all of you. I have a lot of fond memories of the days at BC. It's too bad we didn't always realize what a special time in our lives it would be. I've been enjoying reading the surveys that have been submitted so far and it was interesting to see how many members of the class are still in the Capital District or not too far away. Imagine my surprise when I discovered that Paul Zeh lives only about a mile "down the hill" from me in Rotterdam! I hope all of you have a great time and that you'll take pictures and post them on the website (thanks, Charlie!) for those of us who can't make it.

Mrs. York - she was a wonderful teacher and I really looked up to her
One of my favorites was doing the play "Li'l Abner" and what a great time that was! Also, I loved going to all the NYSSMA events and meeting kids from other schools. There were lots of other times that were terrific, but the memory is fading!
still sometimes have nightmares about trying to open my school locker and not remembering the combination - will that dream ever end? (Honestly, I haven't had it for quite awhile, so maybe it has ended already)
Barbados, Bermuda, all around the United States, and the fantastic trip I had to Argentina as an exchange student between our junior and senior years. My favorite place to be for time to relax and enjoy the beauty of the world is southern Maine.
Too many to choose from.
Spending time with my three beautiful granddaughters, reading, reading, and reading (I have always loved books!), knitting, driving to places I have never seen before.

A tough choice but I think Mrs. Adler takes the prize. She inspired me to read and enjoy books I would never have considered.
Mmmmm....frequently at work for reasons I cannot disclose
One of my favorite memories is driver's ed with Joyce D and Connie S.
I been many places but I think the most interesting was hiking the Inca Trail to Macchu Pichu.
Anything from '64 to '77 works for me. My all time favorite is Higher and Higher by Jackie Wilson
Travel, long distance walking, reading and needlepoint
I hope there is plenty of time to reconnect and catch up.
See you in October
