Joe Gorrell writes: “I retired after 42 years in the federal service in 1995. I started with 15 years with the Forest
Service, four years at the Office of Management and Budget and the balance at several bureaus in the Department of the Interior. My last assignment was with the National Park Service in Washington, D.C. I received my 50-year pin from the Society of American Foresters a couple of years ago. In 1995, I moved to the Wilderness Battlefield area in Spotsylvania County, Va. It is about 15 miles west of downtown Fredericksburg. I attended lawschool at Catholic University after leaving Yale in 1963, and always wanted to be a country lawyer. I started volunteering at the Rappahannock Legal Services Office in Fredericksburg in 1996 and have since continued to do that at least one day a week. I was awarded the Lewis F. Powell Pro Bono Award two years ago for my legal work at RLS and other court-appointed work by the Virginia State Bar. My wife, Ann, and I travel a good bit. We had a wonderful experience with the National Park Service employee and alumni group at the Grand Canyon last fall. We are heading for southern California this fall. I have five grandchildren and another on the way in December. We enjoy relatively good health and take everything one day at a time. I was sorry to learn of Bill Reifsnyder’s passing. He was my main professor while I was at Yale. I had known him previously when living in California.”

Darius Adams writes: “I have been a professor in the Department of Forest Resources at Oregon State University since returning here in 1995, continuing research on longterm regional and national timber supply, and recently on the options for accelerating the sequestration of carbon in forests. In July, I agreed to serve as interim head of the department for two years while the College of Forestry undergoes a major reorganization. My wife, Claire, is also a professor on the college faculty. We started our family late, so our older son is heading off to college this fall.”
