Once we have more information we'll let you know.
If you know of guys who were in the Club, but do not
appear either in the UAlbany Alum Directory or on
our lists, let us know. We are striving to
have an exhaustive list of all Potter Club Alumni.
February

President in 1976-1977, according to two sources
from the era. Thanks for the info. We
now have a complete list of all presidents.
However, we have not been able to reach some of
them, so if you are in touch with any, have them
check in either by phone, email, or letter.
Word from Dick
Willis, `59, that he is on the mend. He
writes. "Your kind hearts and prayers and thoughts
are deeply appreciated by me."
Dave McKay,
`55, sends a message that he ran into Tony Denova,
`55, recently. Tony, still in Oneida, is doing
fine.
February

have been identified, thanks to Steve Finn's, `73,
recollections. We now lack an ID for
1976-1977. Can anyone help?
The recent
email message alerting members to the latest reunion

Word from his
family that Dick Willis, `59, is ailing. We
