Dear classmates,

On Andover-Exeter weekend last November, when we gathered on campus for our (delayed) 55th PA ’66 Gathering/Reunion, Bill Littlefield started us off. Many of us were staying at the Hilton on the outskirts of Andover, and when a bunch of guys started showing up around cocktail time on Thursday night, Bill, one of the first to arrive, sent a text to a group of us saying, “I’ll be the guy talking to Al Basile.” and thus it was. Later, Al was telling Don Ross about the night that he did a music gig with B.B. King, but that’s another story.
