(Editor's note. The following was received from Susie on 8/08/07)
July 2007 update. I am still here in California keeping busy working for the Southern California Magazine Group as Advertising Manager. I have great clients and I enjoy the work so I’ll keep at it for a while.

Two volunteer activities, which I really enjoy, involve reading with kids at the elementary school level---English and Spanish speaking. It is fun and rewarding. Gardening and traveling are at the top of my list too.

In my spare time (-: I am helping Abby put on this terrific reunion for all of us. It has been so much fun to reconnect with everyone and email certainly has helped. I’ve enjoyed staying in touch with many of our classmates through the years. My parents stayed in Chappaqua until ’94 and by then I was traveling back and forth 4-5 times a year.

My big kids are in the area which is great because my Mom is near by and she will turn 100 this month - July ’07. She is in great shape and lives on her own. Daughter Lindy is with the marketing department of the Los Angeles Philharmonic and my son, John, is a lawyer with a firm here in L.A.

I hope that all of you will sign up, make your reservations, get your bio to Bill and plan to be in Chappaqua in September. Love to all….See you soon.  Love, Susie
