Here we are in Seattle, May 2026.” Lillian enjoying her world travels and her commemorative glass in recognition of her “legendary journey.” 1981 Members of the Class of 1981 celebrating their 45-Year Reunion this year Geoffrey Cole, see In Loving Memory, Samuel “Chip” Thornton Cole, Jr. ’79 Gloria Johnson Goins, see Clarence Cryer ’80 1983 Lillian Hayes Martin, shares, “In 2026, I made it to 100 countries and territories with a visit to Panama hosted by Accor Hotels. The Sofitel there made me a commemorative shot glass for my collection! I’ve been to all seven continents and 49 states (somehow Wisconsin has slipped my grasp???!). My travel agent business has taken off and I’m loving planning trips for people.” 1984 Tony Cooper writes, “About six months ago, I started a podcast. It was a big stretch for me. It’s called The Dad Manual, and it highlights conscious dads who take their job seriously. Who have done the work on themselves. Healed old wounds. Relish in the joy of fatherhood. And share vulnerably about the ups and downs, how they’ve had to make things up as they go, and have learned to love deeper than they ever thought possible. The conversations are inspiring, gut-wrenching, joyful, and are just what new dads on their journey need to raise a generation of children who can become the transformation our world needs. Please take a listen, share your thoughts, and spread it to others who would love to hear it. If anyone would like to be considered to be a guest, reach out to me at dadmanualpodcast@gmail.com. I’d love to feature RE alumni!” 1985 Earlier this year, Paul Lehr celebrated the 10th anniversary of the GroundUP Music Festival, named by The New York Times as one of the top “10 definitive moments of the decade” in music.
