the asphalt, just in front of the former SMA Mess Hall.
ABOVE: With the SMA colors flying in the wind, the Virginia

and VWIL Cadet Elena McDonald.

2006 REUNION — SAVOR THE MEMORIES!
Brothers Bruce K. Fisher, SMA ‘49 and
Allen P. Fisher, SMA ‘56, returned to the
“Hill” for the 2006 reunion. Allen Fisher,
in his role as coordinator of the Class
of 1956 for this reunion, was successful in locating more than a dozen class
members whose whereabouts had
been unknown for years.
ABOVE: Seated in front of a massed guidon display (using a special stand built
by John H. J”Jack” Lowe, SMA ‘49) participants in the April 7 Memorial Wall
ceremony included (left to right) Alexis Fernandez-Vives, Paige “Lolo” Kable, VWIL
First Captain Therese Landin and Donald R. Windley, SMA ‘70. Honored with wall
plaues at the ceremony were Richard C. “Dick” Steinberg (former teacher and
coach and general manager of the NFL’s New England Patriots), Dr. Alexis O.
Fernandez, SMA ‘49 (noted physician from Puerto Rico), and Alvin B. Simon,
SMA ‘49 (remembered for his military service and volunteerism in Israel).
BELOW: The Class of 1961 was well represented by (left to right) Wes G. Constable, Pierre Rufin, Mary Beth Rufin, Francis C. Beakes and Steven L. Bond.
It is time to register for the 2007 reunion in Staunton.
The form and schedule of events is on page 16.

Mrs. Dorothy Thacker, secretary to a
number of SMA administrators and
friend to hundreds of SMA cadets during the ‘50’s, ‘60’s and ‘70’s, joined the
“old boys” at the 2006 reunion banquet in Staunton. Mrs. Thacker has
been a devoted member of the SMA
Alumni Association for many years
and has attended reunions year after
year to visit with the men she knew as
boys at SMA. Even though she has
this year moved away from Staunton,
she was counseled that her presence
will be expected at the 2007 reunion,
even if a formal escort from her new
home in Roanoke is required to get her
to the banquet.

cadets for life.” The presentation was

record of 329 wins and 94 losses and
shepherded the “Hilltoppers” to 18
Military League championships.
