Yale’s team fought to the end, but Harvard won. Your scribe will be in Cambridge next year, and will be happy to meet classmates there, virus willing, and the creek don’t rise.

Howard Newman directed me to this story: “George Chopivsky, a long-time Ukrainian-American business and philanthropic leader, was one of the recipients of the Yaroslav the Wise award during Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky’s recent trip to America. The Chopivsky Family Foundation supports many education, culture, religion, information/research, and publishing programs that benefit Ukraine.”—Ukraine Today. Good work, George.

David Johnson directed me to this story: “David Mannis was recently elected to a 2-year term on the Board of Finance of Stamford, Connecticut. [David’s platform]  The Board is the 6-member body which oversees the City’s finances. On the same ballot was Stamford’s mayoral election, which received fairly wide publicity because of the (losing) candidacy of former Mets manager Bobby Valentine. Previously, David had won (and lost) a seat on Stamford’s School Board.” Well done, David.

The mailbag is empty. I am not going to make stuff up, nor am I going to talk about myself. My job is to chronicle the lives of classmates and to honor those who have passed. But I can’t do this without your help. Capiche?
