| Dee on "International Day" - 1970 |

Thanks so much for getting in touch with me. I'll have to thank Linda for her help in facilitating that. My goodness, where to start, well the easy, simple facts are: I live with my husband Tom in Harrisville, New Hampshire. Harrisville is a small, former textile mill town, and so it still retains much of its historic charm & character. We are located in the South Western corner of NH about 40 minutes East of Brattleboro Vermont. We have lived here for 25 years with our two daughters Lara, now 27 and Amaris 24. Both girls are teachers and live right outside of Denver, Colorado. I am the Administrative Director for the Environmental Studies department at Antioch New England Graduate School in Keene, New Hampshire and have been here since 1990. My husband has his own architectural firm of Weller and Michal Architects in Keene as well. This is a far cry from Green Acres for sure! I look forward to reconnecting with everyone! Our older daughter Lara, is getting married this coming summer. Hopefully by September we will have recovered, and won’t be too overwhelmed with work at that time, to swing a trip to NY. I have always wanted to return to Valley Stream and see my old home and neighborhood. I have not been back in 34 years - it seems like a lifetime ago. Grillo, Henry (posted Nov. 1, 2004) The photo I’ve attached is pretty recent. That's me, my wife Kathy, our daughter Kristin and our son Daniel; and Toby in the front row. Here's our news from North Carolina: I'm taking a break from teaching at the North Carolina School of the Arts this year, working there instead on an Administrative Fellowship in the Chancellor's office. Kathy is designing costumes for 6 operas this year, and is preparing for a very large production of Barber of Seville next year in St. Louis. Kristin finishes up at Duke in the spring; Daniel just began his college career at Cornell this past fall. Hope you and your family are doing well! McNair, Christine (posted Nov. 1, 2004) I live in Bohemia, New York and own my own Landscaping company. I have five kids and six grandchildren! I’d love to hear from my classmates, and would like to know when the next reunion is (I’ve never made it to any, yet). I also have four dogs, three cats, two horses and a goat. I love to ride in Connetquot State Park. Thanks again, Christine. Tony Poteete (posted Nov. 1, 2004) Jean and I have an empty nest. My son Bob is in his second year of law school at UCLA, and Anna is in her second year of college at Brandeis. She intends to be an English teacher. Elise Power (posted Nov. 1, 2004) I’m single, and living in Dallas – recently moved out West from New Jersey. I manage the Dallas program for VistaCare Hospice. I’ve just taken up golf, and I’m a Nana for the first time. (That’s me in the photo with my grandson, Jett.) I’m excited about the idea of coming back East for the reunion. Thanks Steve -- Elise (“Joisey Girl”) Shulman, David (posted Nov. 1, 2004) Hi Steve: Attached is a photo of Donna and I. I am busy with my business. I have a Brokerage business which specializes in Long Term Care Insurance, and that is a hot product these days. I live in Old Brookville and my kids Maggie (26) and Jared (23), both have businesses and apartments in NYC and are happy and doing very well. Donna and I spend our fun time on the boat or riding the Harley. We rode the bike this summer from California to NY...very cool trip. Hope all is well with you. |
