Olga Resta had a springtime sojourn on the Queen Mary II, visiting several South American
ports of call. Her travels last summer included visits to southern France and Italy. Closer to
home, she relishes time spent with her two grandchildren.

Jo Schmidt Madden continues regular visits to Aruba and recently returned from visiting her
three youngest grandchildren in Florida.

Sallie Neuweiler Henrie is grappling with the problems of leaving her Michigan home for permanent residence in Naples, FL. For a nice change of pace, she and Arthur enjoyed an
October week of golf in Bermuda.

Sue Davis Tull and Bill spent two winter months exploring the Galápagos Islands and Machu Picchu. On a July trip to the Adirondacks, Sue took a moment to visit Skidmore and see the nursing-program exhibition in Dana Science Center. Several photos show our class to be well represented.

Lucinda Lorenzen Wolff and Robert had a busy year flying in their plane back and forth from Rhode Island to Arkansas. The couple is building a new home and a hangar for their plane.
They visit friends and children Kristy, Topper, and Jonathan. Kristy lives in California with her three kids; Topper is in Thailand and has two kids; and Jonathan is in Colorado with seven kids.

Mary Hamilton McLaughlin reports that she, Joan Caldwell, Dorothea Sherman Hamilton, Connie Kellert Goldstein, Pat Kennedy Snyderman, and Virginia Stotz enjoyed lunch in Manhattan last May. (I suggest that mini-reunions like this could be replicated in the West, Mid-Atlantic, Southwest, and Florida, where we are well represented.) Mary was recently elected treasurer of
the League of Women Voters of Huntington, Long Island. She continues to play violin with the senior symphony and attended a chamber music week at Albright College. Mary heard from Sybil Campbell, who underwent open-heart surgery last year and has recovered nicely. Mary also attended the funeral service for Georgia Blank Farber, who died in April. We remember Georgia
as an avid reader and lover of poetry. Our condolences to her husband, Barton, two daughters,
and two grandsons.
