The Maine House of Representatives has a new member from the Waterville
district--attorney Joe Jabar. He attributes his decision to run to
midlife crisis. Thanks to Joe Jr. '94 and his wife, Joe Sr. and his wife,
Renee, are grandparents for the second time. Joe Jr. works with A.G. Edwards.
Now in law school, son Jason '96 is the 10th Jabar to graduate from Colby--a
remarkable and proud tradition. . . . It appears that
Jeanne Amnotte McCarthy and husband Jerry have raised two hockey
players. Jeremiah Jr., 20, is on the Harvard varsity team and also was a member
of the U.S. National Junior Team. Liam, 17, a senior at Belmont High (Mass.),
is trying to decide which college to attend, and hockey will be key to his
choice. I'm sure many of us share Jeanne's sentiment that "Turning 50 was
shocking. Aren't we all still kids?" . . . Jane Morrison
recently moved to Appleton, Maine, and is director of public information for
Penobscot Bay Medical Center. Son Joshua '93 is teaching and coaching, and Seth
is a freshman at South Vermont College. Jane lists under "too early to tell the
effect"--second child off to college, moving to 12 acres in a somewhat remote
location and her new job responsibilities. . . . Susanne
Gilmore MacArthur has been involved in a national portfolio project to
assess student learning and has traveled to San Francisco, New York and Texas
to develop training materials for use with both teachers and students around
the country. Husband K.C. is associate director of a day treatment program for
special needs students. Susanne's sons both live in southern Maine. Cory, 27,
is in graduate school to become a teacher, and Scott, 29, works for L.L.Bean
and travels whenever he can. . . . Busy doesn't begin to
describe Bob Kulp and his wife. Bob is: chairman of Speed Art Museum
Charter Collectors and buys art for the museum's collection; president of
Friends of the School of Music, U. of Louisville; chairman of New Performing
Arts, providing quality music to disadvantaged communities; and trustee for
River Fields, Inc., a conservation group. Bob says someone needs to teach him
to say no to volunteerism as he has no time to practice law, but he's
loving it nonetheless. Margaret is the zone chairman for Garden Club of America
and a national advisory council member of the American Horticultural Society.
Both enjoy traveling, singing and gardening in both Kentucky and Christmas
Cove, Maine. . . . Last summer in the Keene (N.H.)
Sentinel, an extensive article appeared about Barbara Stanford
Tremblay. She is currently principal of the Franklin School in Keene, where
she draws praise from teachers and students alike. Complete with photos, the
article profiles her life, career and family with quotes about her educational
philosophy. . . . Bye for now.
