Dear Whitney, As you probably know, your mom, Nancy, was my first ever roommate when we were assigned a room in the co-op at 69 Brattle Street in Cambridge for our graduate "year" with the Harvard-Radcliffe Program in Business Administration in September 1956. It was my most wonderful academic year, largely due to her generous and happy personality. Her birthday present to me was a set of Bach organ pieces on vinyl records although she was not a fan of either the composer or the instrument! Such a sacrifice! We corresponded every Christmas time, exchanging pictures of you and ,although I did not meet your Dad in person, I felt I was acquainted with him also all these years. I appreciate his sending me the sad news last year of her passing. Now it is a deep shared loss for us both. My thoughts are with you and yours....jan patton gardiner.

Dear Whitney, I was so sorry to read about the passing of your father. I had both your parents in HS--your mother for Algebra 2 and your father for Trig. I remember when your mother was Mayor of my town, Fair Haven and also when she was pregnant with you. I admired them both as teachers and as human beings--so much that they were my mentors who encouraged to become a math teacher just like them. I did just that and I retired as of 7/1/2011. I also remember teaching the Algebra course at Brookdale CC at the same time your father taught the SAT Prep. We would always be early for our class and talk a little. I remember him asking me, "When are you going to call me Bill?" I had so much respect for your parents that I said, "Never!! You will always be Mr. Kern to me." Please accept my condolences and know that your parents were two of the most wonderful people I will always remember. Gale Farwell
