Ms. Anne Martin and COL Robert N. Tredway

A few years ago, upon Bob Tredway’s attending the 45th reunion of the GMC HS Class of ’53, his wife Anne commented on the joy she felt as “the years melted away and ‘the boys’ seemed to pick up where they left off in 1953.”

As the next several years passed, the class determined that a lasting legacy would be the hallmark of the Class of ’53 – a legacy that would recognize both students and teachers and provide a living memorial to the values instilled by GMC and embodied in the Class of ’53.

Bob and Anne continued to enjoy the fellowship and camaraderie that resulted from reconnecting with old friends . . . and they were touched by the outpouring of love and concern during Bob’s battle with a terminal illness. It was important to Bob to “put things in order,” including making a provision for GMC in their will. Anne agreed wholeheartedly and has since commented that she knows what GMC meant in Bob’s life. For Bob, the impact of GMC included the GMC values, the GMC legacy, and the contribution to society that GMC graduates have made in the past and will make in years to come.

Bob and Anne’s bequest will further endow the HS Class of ’53 Fund, which will in perpetuity recognize excellence among GMC faculty and students.
