Since graduating in June 1953, I have worked all my life and am still working, but should be retiring at the end of this year or the first half of next year.  I am now working for an investment banking firm as a secretary for the chief investment officer and making lots of money (big joke).  I remained single for a very long time and was married 13 years ago.  My husband is retired - so we switched roles - he does the cooking and shopping and I bring in all the money.  I am the stepmother of two grown children, step-grandmother of three and step-great grandmother of two - but never a mother.
     Before I was married, I did a lot of traveling and since marriage am still doing a bit of traveling.  As you will see from Pat Foerster's letter, we see each other on a regular basis and do most of our traveling with Pat and her husband.  We are great pals.
