FALL 2021 67 CLASS NOTES for corporate and virtual events. Adding both a baby and a business to the mix during this wild year has been a challenge but a true joy. Abbie and Devin recently met Patrick Greene and wife Micah and kids at their home in Guilford, Connecticut. And Abbie recently had a mini-reunion with Niki Hall Holland and Katie Brewer Goodman . We look forward to many more reunions with fellow alums this summer! Erika Safir and Kristen Chin recently traveled from Los Angeles and New York, respectively, to Portland, Oregon, to visit Chris Basler and Anita Gooding . They had a blast at the Memorial Day picnic that Chris hosted with his boyfriend, Des, and even got to spend some time with the next generation of Bantams: Chi Chi Moran-Basler and Marley Gooding Carson (both Class of 2042). 2008 Class Secretary: Elizabeth Fritzer Dreier, 32 Elaine Dr., Simsbury, CT 06070-1625; elizabeth.

Chris Stoeckle and wife Lizzy recently completed the adoption of their 2½-year- old son, Vutomi, from South Africa. They spent about 4½ months in Johannesburg at the beginning of the year and absolutely loved it. Vutomi has handled the transition into their family very well and is the most amazing little guy. Chris and Lizzy are very proud and feel lucky that he is officially their son. Heather Moore Roberson gave birth to baby boy Isaac Rudy Roberson in November 2020. Also, a few months ago, Heather became the first Black woman to receive tenure at Allegheny College. This fall, she will begin a new appointment as the inaugural director of faculty diversity and inclusion. She will retain her title as associate professor of com- munity and justice studies and Black studies at Allegheny College. Allie Echeverria is finishing the first year of her coordinated dietetics internship and master’s degree in nutrition at Georgia State University. Aside from all of her coursework and rotations, Allie finds time to serve as the sustainability initiatives graduate assistant. GSU has some amazing projects, including a student garden growing on top of the football stadium. In addition, Allie has fallen in love with the sport of Strongman and competed in her first sanctioned competition in March. Way to go, Allie! 2009 Class Secretary: Caitlin M.
