Seanny E.- You’ve been my best friend for 16 years. Remember
the Big Wheel races as kids; Luke and Bo (you had to be Bo cause
you were blond); dressing up as cowboys, batmen and Pi’s; Ace is
cool; Boogamen; Meeting Jim Ed Rice; Reckon Crew; Batball,
BPC, TC, Lob, Retardo and pong; All-star battery in the little
league; Misplacing your thumb; Abadee Abadeezian, Calnah,
Peeahj, and Calden Barnabus Collins; THE Sleepover, crazy
neighborhood trips w/ Sammy-boy, Tar-Trek, Hoth gear, cool
eighties guys in Matunuck; Bickfid’s, Cottrill, "Ah, Jeez”. Through
all this you’ve been my closest friend and I’m so thankful for all
the great memories that you’ve given me.
Special thanks also goes to- Mr. Fills, Ms. Gordon, Tom Decker,
Coach Z, Rob Edmunds, Mr. Gross, Ransom, John George, Helen
and Tony Lambrese.

Tory and KC- You’ve made me laugh since you first learned to
talk, MANY words ago. Thanks for being great supporters, great
sisters, and great friends.
Mom and Dad- I am so lucky to have had such caring, hard
working and devoted parents. I couldn't have asked for better role
models than you two. I am more grateful to you than you could
ever know for the time, money, effort, and love which you have
put into raising me. I love you.
And one more thing, yeah, one last shoutout:

Ian- Disagreement is the perfect way to find some common ground. Thanks for
instilling a little compassion in a die-hard cynic.
Andy, Zach, Duffel, Adam, Sina, Scott, Robin, and the rest of the senior class- Don't
worry about success, guys. That’s the only way not to have it. Live exciting, soul-
inspiring lives and get plenty of sleep at night. Eat your vitamins. And stay as fun-
loving and optimisic as you are now. In ten years we’ll all come back and compare
lives. I'm looking forward to it.
Ms. Briendel- Your sage advice and indominable wit are chiefly responsible for my
being here to write this. Thank you. THANK YOU, for four wonderful years.
Mr. Andrew- Who's going to “get” your jokes now? And who’s going to “get” mine?
Thanks for Shakespeare, Tennyson, Whitman, and -to a lesser extent- Toni
Morrison.
Ms. Morse- By far the sanest person here. Good luck, but you won't even need it.
And thanks.
Nonni, Ms. Landis, Liz, Mrs. Chiappetta, Mr. Gambardella, AND ALL. THE
FACULTY- your guidance, your patience and most of all your kindness make Moses
Brown what it is.
Mom and Dad- Thanks for the investment. BELIEVE ME, it was worth it.
To the Moses Brown Faculty, Administration, and Students- “Absence diminishes
mediocre passions, but augments new ones; just as the wind extinguishes candles, but
lights a fire.”
