Brothers from 1964 Pledge Class Gather For Reunion
Seventeen members from the 1964 pledge class recently got together for a reunion at the house on Friday, June 10. The gathering was organized by John McConnell ’68, John Carothers ’68, and Pete Cosyns ’68. Brothers came from all over the country for a weekend of golf, bike riding, and sharing memories. George (Tex) Schudy ’66, who had been in Granville the previous weekend, left a gift of appropriate drinks at the local market for the brothers to pick up. The house looked great, as did the group of nearly 70 year old men who attended the reunion. Everyone had a great time!
