To each member of the Committee, thank you for your work on this reunion…not to mention all previous ones. It is good to keep in touch, to see and be together again as a class, and you have made those things happen for fifty years. Bravo!My husband, Tom, and I continue to enjy living in the suburbs of Washington. D.C. where we volunteer in our community and at our church. We travel at every opportunity. We devote a lot of time to the National Military Family Association, and advocacy group with lots of programs dealing with the special needs of children and spouses of members of the military, most especially those now serving in Afghanistan and Iraq. Visit the website http://www.nmfa.org/ and you will see what a great organization it is.
Phyllis Beckman Ainsworth lives nearby, and we are having some more good times together. We do movies and are trying to find a place that has better shrimp than Taste of Saigon. It is doubtful we will succeed, but we will continue to search in earnest.

Thanks for posting your auto-bio here, I liked your photo when it was first posted and I like it here.
I went to your website: nmfa.org. You provide invaluable service(s) to the often forgotten partners of those we send in harm's way.
Although I did not see reference to John Conlee's song, "They Also Serve..." or to John Milton's lines, "They also serve who only stand and wait.", the work you do reflects these words and the need to tend to the stress the loved ones back at home have to deal with.
Thank you both for your service to the unsung heroes... the families.
