Ladd's loss is a heavy one for so many - he was well loved in more ways than possible to note. I was looking forward to joining him at our Northfield Mount Hermon class of '62's 55th reunion next June - there, and at other NMH events - he was an enthusiastic regular. In 2015 he soloed at the school's Sacred Concert - a regular activity for him as part of the Alumni Choir. Dear Ladd - home, safe home.
Ladd's beautiful light shall shine on within us always!
