A special thanks to the committee, for doing such a wonderful job!

Comment: Once again, I regret that I will have to miss seeing everyone at our reunion. Summers in Pigeon Forge/Gatlinburg are much too busy for me to escape for a weekend of fun. Hopefully, I will still be kicking by the time of the next reunion.
My kindest regards to all.

Comment: In the name of efficiency, we combined parenthood and grandparenthood. Ellie will be 11 this summer and has informed us that she is a "pre-teen."

Here's us at Stonehenge in May 2005, in London for a month with a group of 23 JMU students. I'm the one with hair in all the wrong places. Cheers all, Dave.
