Martin H. Brix ’40 wanted to share some sad news with former classmates. He lost his wife, Pearl, to cancer on April 15. The couple had celebrated their 60th wedding anniversary in 2002. He writes, “I am now living with beautiful memories just outside of Santa Barbara in the Santa Ynez Valley, where Pearl is resting peacefully.”

Emmett King ’48 of Glenview, Ill., continues to work in his own architectural firm. He and his wife, Patricia, attend the NU football games and also see lots of movies. They enjoy being with their six children (four sons and two daughters), as well as their five grandchildren.

Clifford Labelle ’48 of Zion, Ill., retired from his law firm in 1991. That was his second career—he conducted an insurance agency until his graduation from Kent Law School in 1964. Cliff is also a World War II veteran of the 100th Infantry Division in Europe and a former POW. He and his wife, Kathleen, enjoy the Lake Michigan beaches and their large family of four children and 15 grandchildren.

David Krakauer ’48 of Highland Park, Ill., has conducted his own CPA firm in that town since 1969. He and his wife, Blossom Jordan, have one son and have greatly enjoyed their travels in Europe.

Ernest Komives ’48 of Villa Park, Ill., has retired as vice president of finance for the Claud S. Gordon Co. He and his wife, Hannah, have a fine family of two children, four grandchildren and two great-grandchildren.
