John Chadwick '30 is happy to watch his five great-grandchildren bond at all the family gatherings. The last time John returned to campus was for a reunion in 1976. He says he was lost in nostalgia on finding his old 1927 chapel seat was in the new chapel on Mayflower Hill. . . . Adrian Cloutier '31 returned to campus more recently, in 1981, for the 50th reunion of his class. . . . George '34 and Vesta Alden Putnam '33 hosted the annual Waterville Club lobster bake at Alden Camps. They are very proud that their granddaughter is joining the Class of 2005. George mentioned that his great-grandfather attended Waterville University, so they have continued the tradition of sending family members to Colby in three different centuries. . . . Agnes Carlyle Hadden '36 has four sons, one daughter and 12 grandchildren. She is enjoying life in North Hill, a life-care retirement community, visiting her family, writing, needleworking and making and repairing jewelry. The last time she returned to campus was for her 40th and 50th reunions. . . . After living in Rochester, N.Y., for more than 60 years, 40 of those years spent working with Kodak, Willard Libby '37 and his wife, Rebecca, decided to move closer to one of their children. His son Lowell '77 is following in the footsteps of his grandfather, Professor Herbert Libby '02, and is in the educational field at Wayneflete School in Portland, Maine, so moving to Falmouth seemed like a natural choice for Willard. He and Rebecca live in a retirement community with the advantages of the Portland area's attractions close by. They would welcome a visit from any Colby members nearby. . . . Gardiner Gregory '39 also has returned
to the College. He and his wife, Anne, have two daughters, Linda and Susan, but he reports that there are no pets in their household.
