Kudos for 50+ Year Fellows

Dear Editor:
You and your staff did a wonderful job on the 50th anniversary of the class of 1947 in the last Actuarial Review. The fact that you got pictures of six of us is amazing. And the additional information about so many of us indicated a lot of hard work....

One minor thing. The Table on the "Class of 1922-1947 Fellows," doesn’t indicate that those older classes contained a good many people who have died, who were great people in CAS history—like Dudley Pruitt, Tom Carlson, Ham Barber, and many others I could name. The class of 1947 was big, but there were other big ones before that, although not that big. The amazing thing about the 1947 class is how many of us have survived.

I hope AR can recall other 50-year Fellows in the future. Although I wouldn’t expect a spread every year like you have given us.

Again, many thanks....

Matthew Rodermund, FCAS
