Comments

Lived in Hawaii upon graduation from U of Chico 1970.
Moved with Kiwi husband to New Zealand, 1975.
Have lived in NZ since then, most of my life!!!
Have four adult "children" scattered from Mumbai to Dallas and countries in between.
Travel to Israel for volunteer work every few years, and been to what ever parts of the world my eldest son is assigned as part of his NZ govt. work.
Life in the Lord is never dull!!

School Story

Attended Carlmont my last year so only see Margaret Cummins ( Ana) when in the Bay Area.

Places you have visited

You name it, between Asia and India, and the Stan countries...and of course the Mediterranean nations...and always Israel every few years.

Your plans for the next 10 years

In a few months heading back to Greece to visit friends there, and then back to Israel for the grape harvest in Samaria.

Hobbies & interests

Keen gardener, and belong to two book clubs...one is the American Women's Book Club here in Auckland, New Zealand.

Words of wisdom for 2016 graduates of Carlmont High

Not all that you hear from the media can be trusted, you need to see for yourself what people face in their everyday lives.
So few balanced reporters out n about....most just regurgitating what propaganda is politically correct from politicians.
Read history books published pre 1966 to get real history not the new version.

Hey Nancy, I recognised the school photo! Still remember us scooting off to Carmel for a day and hanging out. Did some property development also, first the farm we had, and then the city property. Mainly taught High School (semi Private school) for most of my “career” time. The photo is the whole family, reunion 2017. 4 kids and 6 grandchildren...scattered between Denver, Dallas, and Auckland New Zealand. Catch up via email?
No covid cares, just wish the fear factor wasn’t part of the media’s main news.

Hi Gerry,
Flash from the past....so long that anyone from school days has come across my email page. Hope if there was a Birthday Celebration that you enjoyed it, and had blessed health too. Each year we get is a blessing, but without healthy hearts and bodies not much satisfies! I’m still stuck in New Zealand, a nation going nuts with overreach of government agenda to stop COVID-19...as if anyone can. All is well with me...just been locked down a bit too long - 3months for 2 deaths out of 5million! And still no end in sight. Obviously am reading what ever is in someone’s bookshelf!
Happy Day..

That big year 70 finally arrived! Still me, and don't feel a day older. Four of the six grand Darlings helped serve cake to 30 friends and family on the day.
