2007 update. What a terrific website! I'm finally getting around
to this- 50 years in a paragraph or two is not easy!
After graduating from Saint Mary's College in South Bend, Indiana, I married
Tony Walsh of Savannah, Georgia. Thanks to the Navy, we spent a few years in
Norfolk, VA, then moved to Philadelphia when Tony took a job with Rohm and
Haas Company. Pat worked at the College of Physicians Medical Library until
our daughter, Marybeth, was born in 1968. We have lived in the Philadelphia
area, except for five years (1971-1976) spent in Bombay, India. What an
adventure! Living abroad gave us a taste for travel, which we have enjoyed
ever since.
When we moved back to the Philadelphia suburbs, Pat worked for a local
travel agency until 2001. Now both retired, we are busier than ever. We
spend the month of March at Wild Dunes on the Isle of Palms, SC, playing
golf and catching up with friends and family in the area. Our travels always
take us to South Bend for at least one Notre Dame football game a season,
and usually to some more distant destinations. This summer we had a great
trip to British Columbia and the Canadian Rockies (picture attached).
Our daughter and husband and two wonderful grandchildren (aren't all
grandchildren wonderful!), Maggie (6) and Milo (4), live about four hours
drive south on the western shore of the Chesapeake, so we are visiting
often. I also enjoy golf, gardening, bridge, and painting (watercolors),
along with volunteer work for the American Cancer Society and at a soup
kitchen in Philadelphia.
Reunion plans sound great - it will be fun to get together! Pat
