This list includes information starting in July 2022.
This list has been updated as of September 15, 2023, to the best of our knowledge.

We do our best to keep this list up-to-date each month gathering as much information as we can from numerous sources as they are made available to us, as there is not one comprehensive source to provide us this personal information of obituaries, wedding announcements, engagements, and new babies. If you notice a friend, loved one, or yourself, not listed, please email Emily R. Smith '01, Director of Alumnae Engagement, at ersmith@sms.edu, so we can add to the list and update the alumnae record. Thank you! 

IN MEMORIAM 

Give rest, O God, to your servants who have come to dwell with you, where sorrow and pain are no more. Surround those who grieve with your love, that no one may be overwhelmed by loss, but may have confidence in your goodness, and strength to meet the days to come. Amen.¹ 

Listings followed by an asterisk (*) are included here as we have just learned of her passing.

MARRIAGES

O God, faithful and true, whose steadfast love endures forever: we give you thanks for sustaining those who are married in the life they share and for bringing them to this day. Nurture them and fill them with joy in their life together, continuing the good work you have begun in them; and grant us, with them, a dwelling place eternal in the heavens where all your people will share the joy of perfect love, now and forever. Amen.²
