Alice Bocquel Hartwell '36, a retired Waterville High School teacher who taught for 40 years, was on campus for Reunion Weekend in May, and one of her former French students, Meg Bernier '81 of the Alumni Office, was thrilled to see her. "She still has incredible energy and presence, and obviously enjoys her active lifestyle," Meg said. Alice's daughter, Alice Louise Hartwell, lives in Los Angeles. . . . Retired clergyman Edwin Shuman '38 and his wife, Marjorie Gould Murphy Shuman '37, a retired teacher, spend their winters in Florida but return to the Northeast to summer in West Oneonta, N.Y. They have four adult children, nine grandchildren and a great-granddaughter. In November 2002 they visited their grandson and his wife and four-month-old Amber in Bountiful, Utah, and then spent Thanksgiving on the West Coast with Edwin's two sons and their families. Edwin writes that his favorite Colby traditions are football and track. Favorite memories of his College days include earning third place in a Debating Society national competition and serving as a member of the Student Volunteer Movement, as a member of Phi Delta Theta and as Camera Club president. He also worked as the student assistant to Professor Herbert Carlyle Libby, Class of 1902. . . . Violet Hamilton Christensen '39 is also a retired teacher. After moving to Ohio to be near her son, she lost her husband following surgery last February. Her grandchildren both graduated from Ohio University: granddaughter Hillary Brooks is an assistant design director at CNN in Atlanta, and grandson Richard J. Brooks is a component engineer at Invensys Climate Controls in Plain City, Ohio. Violet returned to the Mayflower Hill campus for her 25th, 50th and two 50-Plus reunions.
