Carole Walter Maeder’s daughter and younger grandson visited her in Bonita Springs, FL, for two weeks in the spring. Carole also had a wonderful time going to plays and dinner with Linda Ellenbogen and Joan Berejik this past winter.

Winifred Carlson Mead and husband John retired 10 years ago and moved to Shelter Island. They previously spent time in Manhattan Beach, CA, and Bloomfield Hills, MI.

Kate Crangle Semerad’s husband, Roger, has multiple sclerosis but is remarkably strong in spirit and able to do many things, helped by his trusty electric scooter. Kate is a trustee and former board chair of Zamorano, an American university in Honduras that has 950 students from 22 countries and a curriculum based in the agricultural sciences. Kate is on campus four times a year and does international fundraising and diplomacy from home. Daughter Samantha is married and has a son Will, 11.

I had lunch in Ohio with Sandra Kassouf Lee, who publishes a newspaper on issues of interest to women, and who previously taught school for 33 years and produced her own talk show for l0 while raising a son. She is now enjoying a grandson. Earlier this year, I also had lunch with Judith Testa in a Chicago suburb following a tour of her townhouse. An art historian and professor, Judith has collected paintings, drawings, and prints from colleagues and graduate students; she also has a collection of European items including prints and ceramic pieces.
