Henry Adleman, LA’60, of Needham, Massachusetts, was presented the ninth annual Advocacy Award by the Massachusetts chapter of the Alzheimer’s Association in November 2007. He received the award in recognition of his political lobbying at state and federal levels, fundraising for research, and teaching about the disease’s effects on patients and caregivers. Adleman retired from Compaq Computer in 2001. He was a part-time Northeastern faculty member for more than thirty years. Robert Bruno, E’60, ME’67, of Auburndale, Massachusetts, in March retired from his position as president and chief operating officer at MFIC Corporation. The company designs, manufactures, and distributes materials-processing and formulation equipment to the biotechnology, pharmaceutical, chemical, cosmetics, personal-care, and food industries. Bruno joined the company in 1996, and became president and COO in 2001. George P. Patsourakos, LA’60, MEd’65, of Billerica, Massachusetts, writes, “I was saddened to learn of the death of history professor Wallace P. Bishop. My last class as an undergraduate was Latin American history, which I took with Professor Bishop during the spring term. It was my favorite undergraduate class. He did an incredible job of teaching the history of more than twenty Latin American countries in a ten-week class. I also had Professor Bishop in 1957 for American history, which he made interesting with his peerless sense of wit. I still remember his lecture on the American Revolution. He told the class, ‘The British headed to Lexington and Concord—by way of Route Two.’” Martin Stickley, PHD’64, of Winter Park, Florida, writes to alert others about interesting research being conducted by Northeastern physics professor Allan Widom on low-energy nuclear reactions (LENRS) and related physics. “LENRS have the potential of creating a new energy source that does not pollute or have radioactive byproducts,” explains Stickley. “It could be the energy source of the future.” Richard Bergman, LA’65, of Zephyrhills, Florida, sends in an update: “I have been retired for a few years now and am amazed at how busy life is. Being a liberal-arts graduate has served me well, giving me a great perspective on life and living. Both sons are married. Have just returned from the younger one’s wedding in the Bahamas. I have been to all forty-eight lower states, all of Canada, and as far east as Israel. Still have a summer residence in Massachusetts, and spend the rest of the year in Florida. I served in the U.S. Army at Fort Bragg, North Carolina; worked for nearly twenty years with the Boy Scouts of America in New York and Massachusetts; and retired from the Bank of America, where I worked in sales.” Roger H. Grace, E’66, ME’69, of Naples, Florida, is the president of Roger Grace Associates. Northeastern’s Roger H. Grace Fellowship in Nanomanufacturing is named in honor of his generosity. The annual award supports an outstanding PhD student’s research at the Center for High-Rate Nanomanufacturing. Michael L. D’Addio, LA’67, of Monte Serena, California, in April was elected chief executive officer of Quantum3D, which develops and manufactures real-time visual-simulation and computing systems. D’Addio serves as a member of Northeastern’s National Council. Paul A. Duval, E’68, of Watertown, Massachusetts, died in a rock-climbing accident at Custer, North Dakota, in June. A long-time member of the Appalachian Mountain Club, he was active as a rock-climbing instructor. After serving in the U.S. Army and earning a master’s at Boston University, he was a teacher at Boston Technical, Charlestown, and Madison Park High Schools. He spent summers as a counselor at Camp Kingswood, in Bridgton, Maine.
