Oliver was one of my closest pals at Staples. We kept in touch for ten years after Staples and he was an usher in my wedding in ‘64, but we lost contact as the years went on.

Interesting note: Oliver was an usher at my wedding (1966). Also … I saw him when he was in the Navy shipyard in San Francisco, when I was in Monterrey (1960). We visited him both in NYC and then East Hampton (1969). Strangely enough, he was the only classmate I ever contacted after graduating from college until recently.
