I graduated from Lane in 1953, I worked a year for a stock brokerage
firm in New York City before applying to Mobil Oil (then Socony) in
downtown New York. In 1989 Mobil moved out of New York City to
Northern Virginia. By that time I was an Administrative
Assistant to a Mobil Corporation Director and would have forfeited a
decent retirement by leaving, so I moved along with them and finally
retired from that company in

I was remarried to Graham Harvey, in 1988, and we are very happy. Both of my children have made me (us) grandparents. Karen has two boys; Christopher, 12 and Jonathan who will be 6 in April. Paul has two boys and a girl; Paulie, 15, Joseph, 12 and Samantha, 7. Not to be outdone, Graham's son, Bruce and wife had a girl, Olivia, who will turn 1 year old next month. Now retired, we've recently decided that it's time to return to New York which, in our case, will be to Suffolk County, Long Island. The whole family is there and would like us geographically closer to them; we feel that way too. So, hopefully, we will sell our house here before the end of the summer and be on our way back "home". We're really excited about it. |

I see trees of green, red roses
too
I see them bloom for me and you
And I think to myself what a wonderful world.
I see skies of blue and clouds of white
The bright blessed day, the dark sacred night
And I think to myself what a wonderful world.
The colors of the rainbow so
pretty in the sky
Are also on the faces of people going by
I see friends shaking hands saying how do you do
They're really saying I love you.
I hear babies crying, I watch them grow
They'll learn much more than I'll never know
And I think to myself what a wonderful world
Yes I think to myself what a wonderful world.
