Stephen D. Jervey writes that it is a year of transitions. He stepped down after almost 19 years on the North Reading School Committee. "My youngest is nervously awaiting word from colleges. My middle child has entered the MFA program at a Connecticut institution older than Brown. My oldest is the youth pator at St. Patrick's Church in Malvern, PA. My wife has been offered early retirement, which we are considering seriously. All in all, life is good."
Linda Pei Undergraduate Research Grant
This grant supports research related to issues of women's financial empowerment and honors the life of classmate Linda Pei, who died in 2007. The inaugural recipient is Debbie Lehmann '10. Linda founded the Women's Equity Mutual Fund in 1993 to advance the social and economic status of women in the workplace by bringing to bear the collective power of individual and institutional investors. The Pei grant was established in 2008 thanks to the efforts of our classmate Carol Lemlein and the Brown University Club of Sourthern California Women's Committee. It is administered through the Pembroke Center.

Rula Patterson Shore writes:Graduation was amazing this year. I watched my son William (Billy) Thomas Shore receive his ScB with a double concentration in mathematics and economics, and his ScM in mathematics. He was elected into Phi Beta Kappa junior year and graduated magna cum laude and heads to MIT next fall to pursue a doctorate in economics. Furthermore, he received the David Howell Premium for Excellence in Mathematics and Natural Philosophy and was the only Brown student to receive a Certificate of Honorable Mention on the 69th William Lowell Putnam Mathematical Competition. What made this graduation doubly special is that Billy is the 4th consecutive generation of my family to graduate Brown. The earliest was my grandfather Irving Patterson, class of 1909. My father was Irving W. Patterson Jr., and my mother Priscilla Thomas Patterson. Billy graduated exactly 100 years after his great-grandfather!

Joan Thomaszewski: "Retirement is great. There's more time for delving into genealogy, visiting friends, starting (not always finishing) a variety of projects, and simply enjoying the beauty of each God-given day."
