Finding our classmates

Greetings one & all,

For those of you that don't know me, I was one of the many "Nantucket Mafia" that took over Hinckley in the 1960's. Back in February, I received a letter from the school's Alumni Department reminding me that our 50th class reunion was coming up the first weekend of August (8/5-8/7/16) at Kum Bak weekend. With that letter was a list of the class of 1966, which was not that accurate. Since then, I, along with the help of a few classmates on that list have tried to correct the mistakes.

The first hurdle was trying to find people on the list that the school had listed as "No Address". Once that was done, I contacted those that I could. With the help of Barbara Foss Hodnett, Roger Holt, Bill Grieder and, especially, Whitney Roberts, names on the original list were eliminated that were not part of the class of 1966.

That led me to create a secondary list of others that went to Hinckley during its prep school years. Thanks to the website that Nate Kemler (then known as Nat) established about Hinckley, I had a much easier job with the second list.

Now that I have rambled on about the last 3 months, I'll get to the several points of this email. First, I am attaching the two lists described to this email. Second, if any of you can provide me with new names/contact information for the non-1966 list or contact information for the Class of 1966 list, please email me. Third, any of you that can make it to Kum Bak weekend this August, it would be great, but I especially encourage my classmates from 1966 to attend. Once I receive a more detailed explanation of events for the weekend from the school, I will contact you all again.

Best to all,

Bryan Fisher King

Addendum - I just talked with Robin Lippincott, Bruce Lippincott's wife. (Bruce was one of the teachers at Hinckley in the 60's.) She informed me that Bruce has been in a nursing home since January of this year due to his Parkinson's. Mentally he is fine, but does have difficulty speaking. His wife said he would love to hear from any of us that remember him. He may be contacted at his home address. (It's on the list.)
