No, but our son, Niklas was an exchange student with Rod Ellis '65, in Grand Rapids, Michigan.
A few days after arriving in America to the Ellis' home, Melody '63 wanted me to meet the Okemos Class. So, off to a pool party at Jim Eichmeier's house, after meeting 20 or 30 classmates we jumped in. I hit the bottom of the pool, cut my face above the eye and was taken to Dr. Breckenfeld's office at night and got "sewed up" without anesthetic. I am still reminded of that party years later as I impressed all the German girls with my "dueling" scar.
