Here's a letter from Dan Blanchard, class of '70, with very sad news
indeed. Harry Montgomery was a super student and a good friend. He
last performed at Winedale in the 1990 Comedy of Errors reunion
play. Michael, would you please add Dan to the list serve. Thanks.
I hope that Dali, Gail, Ernie, and the others in that group read this.
Doc
