Gwen Zale and husband Rob Marsh, married last February, say life is treating them well. They live outside of Boston on the South Shore. Gwen is a business development manager with a small consulting company in Waltham. She tries to stay involved with lacrosse and volunteer-coached a group of junior-high girls, which was both entertaining and fun.

Maggie Busser married Franklin Malemud in Chardon, OH, on October 5. Gus Scott ’00 and Nicole Taylor ’99 were in the wedding party. The January-February issue of Maggie’s magazine, Balanced Living (www.BalancedLivingMag.com), featured an article about the holistic and sustainable features of the event. Maggie says she and Franklin “spent part of our micromoon (so dubbed due
to Pluto’s recent demotion) in Saratoga Springs.”

Dana Klotz Cohen and husband Seth live in New Jersey, where he is a school principal and she is a freelance graphic designer and stay-at-home mom.

Jason is doing very well, and the couple was expecting another little girl in February. Dana would love to hear from classmates; her e-mail is dana29@patmedia.net.
