Tara Noble writes: “I live in Brooklyn, New York, where I am opening my first restaurant this year after working in hospitality for almost a decade. I partnered with a chef and sommelier to open my very own mission-driven wine bar in Brooklyn, Cecily, with vegetarian friendly small plates and a profit-sharing model for employees. It’s interesting and a very difficult time to be doing so, between inflation and recession, but we’re scrappy folks who’ve had this dream forever, and are making it happen one step at a time. Check it out or reach out to me at cecilybk.com.”

These included father of the bride Howard Shire ’75, mother of the bride Sharon Eisenstat Shire ’81, best man and brother of the groom Adam Lewin ’09, bridesmaid and sister-in-law of the groom Sara Epstein Lewin ’08, and groomsman and brother of the bride Ethan Shire ’19.

Ever True!” (see Howard Shire ’75).

Class copresident Gloria Markoff Winston reports: “The Pembroke class of 1948 is still basking in the glow of our 70th reunion. Despite the fact that only a few of us could attend, it was an opportunity for many more to reconnect. Class officers Barbara Oberhard Epstein, Betty Montali McKenzie, and I spent countless hours on the phone calling classmates prior to reunion weekend. Unfortunately, many could not physically make the trip, but the phone conversations provided each of them with the opportunity to be connected in spirit. In addition to the wonderful phone calls, we sent classmates a letter requesting that they send back news about their lives, which we all enjoyed reading. Those in attendance were Ginnie Callas, Barbara Kent Elliott, Jean Roberston Finn, and me. A highlight of the weekend was that we enjoyed the company of one of our former Helena Hope Gammel Pembroke 1948 Scholarship recipients, Mary O’Neill Hyde ’12, ’13 AM. Mary came from her home in Massachusetts to join us for lunch. Mary is an Irish immigrant, who after having four children, attended Brown as a returning undergraduate (RUE) student. She served as a RUE counselor and mentor while at Brown. She completed her baccalaureate degree in history and went on to earn a master’s in comparative political studies. The weekend was jam-packed with events, lectures, concerts, and dinners at the Hope Club, all culminating in the procession through the Van Wickle Gates and down College Hill. I was the class marshal. Thousands of degree candidates, faculty, and honorees lined either side of the street. People whistled and cheered and applauded, and the band played as alumni passed through the crowd, with our class very near the front.”

She writes: “It’s an incredible museum with a world-class staff, entirely devoted to one enormous ship that sank half an hour into its maiden voyage nearly four hundred years ago. The ship was raised virtually intact in 1961. After extensive conservation of the hull and its contents (some 40,000 objects found on board), the museum officially opened to the public in 1990. Since then, more than 25 million visitors have passed through the museum’s doors to see the ship. I will be working closely with director of research Fred Hocker, for the next year, as I assist with writing the third volume of the major publication relating to the ship.”
