1950s

JOYCE KNAPP (’50) wants to know, “What about us Class of 1950 people? Some of us are still here and expect to be recognized! I, for one, am living on my own and loving life. Maybe Class of 1950 will have a reunion next May.”

1960s

JOHN FRASER (’60) writes, “I have published an e-book, Building Modern Backyard Boats, available on Amazon, Apple, Kobo, and in Europe on Vivlio. After MtA I began working in journalism, then switched to teaching. Building boats has been a 60-year hobby, including eight kayaks, which were built in regular school classrooms. Twelve pupils took home their own boat. I retired in 1995 and my wife Lyn and I live in Victoria, BC. The book has been a seven-year labour of love. One chapter is ‘A Boat In Every Classroom.’”

SUSAN PATERSON (’80) writes, “I was very pleased to have my painting ‘Artist's Collection’ chosen second place, still life, in the 14th Art Renewal Center Salon. This is a prestigious international online realist art competition with over 4,000 entries. The painting was also chosen for their live exhibit and was displayed at the MEAM in Barcelona, Spain, and was also scheduled to be displayed at Sotheby's in New York, but it was cancelled due to COVID. In October 2020 I had my 10th solo exhibit with Fog Forest Gallery, a wonderful gallery in Sackville that I have been with for over 35 years.”

Several Mount Allison legends gathered at Covered Bridge Golf Club in Hartland, NB for some golf and renewal of friendships.

ODETTE BARR (’88) BEd grad was the second-place winner of the 2019 national competition, the Pottersfield Prize for Creative Nonfiction, with her recently published memoir Teaching at the Top of the World (Pottersfield Press, June 2020). “I spent nearly 10 years completely immersed in Inuit culture in the decade prior to the official birth of Nunavut Territory. Teaching at the Top of the World is the account of my experience as teacher and community member in Pangnirtung, Hall Beach, and Grise Fiord. It centres on Grise Fiord, Canada’s most northern permanently inhabited community, nestled on the south shore of Ellesmere Island.”
