Does anybody know what happened to Judy Brown? I have often wondered about her. She moved to Connecticut during our soph year I think. She was moving to one of the wealthy communities in Fairfield County where Paul Newman lived. This was a big plus back then.

I have fond memories of your cat visiting our class at Arundel. She loved those heated floors. I remember she was dark and long haired. I don't remember exactly what color she was. Can you tell me?

Pam was my best friend when I was in second grade. I met her just after her family had moved to San Carlos from Ohio. She was sitting on the driveway with ther Tiny Tears doll playing with her sister Diane. She still had that doll years later in her study.
We went to Jalapa, Mexico to study Spanish along with Val Coie, Kathy Poole, Sue Steiner and Bonnie Stone when we were 16. That was a fantastic, life changing experience. Talk about culture shock, being surrounded by people who did not speak English and had a totally different culture. We were very popular with the Mexican boys since we did not have to take chaperones with us on dates. This was a big boost in our confidence after being unsure of ourselves at Carlmont. We could smoke in classs and drink on dates. Thank you, Mr Deegan and Mr Marks for teaching me Spanish. I had never expected it to lead to tequilla, tobacco and romance. I learned so much from living with a Mexican family and seeing the world through their eyes. I made sure my two daughters had a live abroad experiece too.
Judy sat next to me in Social Studies. I remember how funny she was.
I also remember the outfit her mother had made for Judy that she gave to Sharon Nichols. It was a blue/turquoise skirt wool tweed like and matching sleveless top worn with a blouse. How heartbreaking to make a lovely outfit for your daughter and have her die and never live to wear it. It was kind of Sharon to take it and must have been tough to wear it.
Even today it breaks my heart to think of the life that was stolen from her.

Judy, I just read our comments about Judy Bosse. I'm sorry you felt lonely and out of place at Carlmont. You seemed so cool, smart, talented and self confident.
