He much liked his Army service in counterintelligence in Germany after the Army Language School taught him German. In our 50th-reunion book he reported that his days in the Army were his happiest after those spent with his family.
Irv went on to earn master’s and doctoral degrees in clinical psychology at Columbia Teachers College. He worked in private practice in Portland, Maine, until retiring after service as president of the Maine Psychological Association as well as on the Psychology Board of Examiners. Devoted to running and other sports, he enjoyed playing the jazz piano and offering puns.
Irv died Oct. 31, 2017. He is survived by his wife, Jacki; and children Jim ’87 and Halley. The class sends condolences to them all and thanks for Irv’s cheerful Army service for our country.
