Dear alumni,
It is with a very heavy heart that I inform you of the tragic death of our classmate Brookes Harmon.
Details are still sketchy, but initial reports state that Brookes was visiting the home of some acquaintances when three men entered the home and proceeded to bind and accost Brookes for about 20 minutes, while forcing the home's residents into a separate room. When the residents of the house emerged from the room after the men left, they found Brookes unconscious and not breathing. He was rushed to the hospital, where he was pronounced dead.
According to media reports, the first suspect is described as a black male, about six feet tall, between 250 and 300 lbs., who was wearing a black hoodie. The second suspect is described as a black male, also about 6 feet tall, between 200 and 250 lbs. The third suspect is also described as a black male, but no further details were available regarding the third suspect.
Per the Daily Times, "[a]nyone with information about this crime is urged to contact Maryland State Police at 410-749-3101 or Crime Solvers of Wicomico County at 410-548-1776. A cash reward of up to $1,000 is available for information leading to an arrest and conviction. Callers may remain anonymous. The investigation is continuing."
On a personal note, I'm completely shocked and saddened by this terrible news, as I'm sure we all are. I had not seen Brookes since we graduated, and I was looking forward to catching up with him at our reunion later this year. I will always remember him as an extremely friendly guy with a wicked sense of humor, who loved making people laugh.
Please keep his family and friends in your thoughts and prayers at this difficult time.
Sincerely,
Bryan Anderton

We Need Your Contact Info!
Hello Class of '99!
As you are probably all aware, next year marks our tenth year since graduating high school. And as such, a reunion is in order.
But before any real planning can begin, we need something from you: your contact information, as well as the contact information for other people from our class with whom you might keep in regular contact.
We'll use this information in the near future to keep you informed about the latest reunion news, and to occasionally ask for your opinions and perhaps solicit your help. It will also help us (when the time comes) to determine what sort of venue and event is appropriate.
Therefore, we humbly request that you send us your contact information -- including your full name (please include your maiden name as well, if applicable), primary phone number, email address, and mailing address -- to wihi1999@gmail.com.
(And, as mentioned above, if you have contact information for other classmates, feel free to send that along as well, if you don't think they would mind.)
Thank you!
Bryan Anderton

(PS: We promise not to share your contact information with any other groups or organizations, nor will we post it on any of the Brew River bathroom stalls.)
