Alumni December Newsletter BEST WISHES FOR A
HAPPY HOLIDAY SEASON! Dear Milne Alumni and Supporters, In this issue: * Digitization Project Update * Memorabilia * * Do You Want to Receive Obituary Notifications During the Month? * Sad News DIGITIZATION PROJECT UPDATE Click here for the first group of Milne "stuff" to be digitized and uploaded! Please note that the website developers have added a link to the "Milne School Murals and Friezes." It's such fun to see Milne School documents online...and all documents are searchable. Be sure to "bookmark" the above link for future reference. But remember...we're not finished yet! Donations are still needed so that we are able to complete this project. If we, as Milne School Alumni, don't ensure that our memorabilia is preserved...who will? For further information, see https://www.albany.edu/~milne/Project.shtml. For an updated list of donations see https://www.albany.edu/~milne/DigitizationDonations.pdf. MEMORABILIA We have formed a small committee with the short-term goal of determining exactly what Milne School memorabilia is in the possession of the University at Albany. I will keep you updated as to the progress and eventual long-term objectives of this committee. SORRY -- NO LONGER AVAILABLE! Martha LOWDER Kimball, '64 "found Milne yearbooks for 1957 and 1958. They belonged to my father, who was on the SUNY faculty and supervised off-campus student teachers. The covers are a bit worn from the passage of time but the pages are great. No writing inside except for my father's name or initials." Does anyone need one of these yearbooks? Click here to send Martha an email if you are interested in either or both yearbooks. DO YOU WANT TO RECEIVE OBITUARY NOTIFICATIONS DURING THE MONTH? If you are not receiving obituary notifications during the month and would like to be added to the list of obituary recipients, please click here to send me your request. By being notified of someone's passing quickly, you will be able to react faster than waiting to be notified in the newsletter. SAD NEWS Please note that I rely upon the Albany Times Union and input from other alumni for this information, so if you become aware of someone who has passed away, please let me know. If a name is underlined, it represents a link to the obituary. Many obituaries are available free for a limited time only. James William Nayor, '63, passed away on November 12, 2014. Frederick Smith, father of Deadra SMITH Morrissey, '64, passed away on November 15, 2014. Sandra COHEN Patack, '53, sister of Arthur COHEN, '67, passed away on Tuesday, November 25.
