In Memoriam
In honor of our departed classmates
Sadly, our Class of 1973 lost 60 members since we came together as students at Colgate. Numerous classmates submitted heartfelt reflections of their deceased friends, memories that now live on in our 50th Yearbook.
Since our Yearbook’s publication, we learned of the passing of four more classmates: Kenneth Leon, Glenn Preibis, Alison Woodruff Rich, and Donald Smith Jr. May their souls rest in peace.
All were recognized at the Service of Remembrance and Celebration of Life during our 50th Reunion Weekend.
Highlights of the Service were an invocation from The Rev. Dr. Michael P. Hilbert, S.J., reflections by The Rev. Dr. Roger Ferlo, and the Litany of Remembrance by The Rev. Dr. Lex Tartaglia, all from the Class of 1973.
After the tolling of the Chapel bell (13 times), class member Frank Meyer accompanied by Perry Cleaveland performed “I Shall Be Released” by Bob Dylan.
If you have any questions about our deceased classmates, please contact Roger Ferlo at roger.ferlo@gmail.com.
