Barbara Mayo Llewellyn ’69 and Allison Porter ’89, who both serve on SBS Board of Trustees meet for dinner in San Francisco, CA. gets the chance. He went air sailing in NV for 2 weeks in a row, for 2 different soaring (gliding) seminars. He helped organize one and taught the other. That worked out very well for me, because Reunion 2013, our 45th was right in the middle of that time. I did have to get a dog sitter for Josie, but she was fine. Reunion was a lot of fun. On Friday night, there was a great cocktail party put on by the Alumnae Board. On Saturday afternoon, all the Mary A. Burnham alums went on a trip to Northampton. I saw several things that I hadn’t known about all those years ago. Interestingly, Barbara Baran Nitollo and Jane Osgood were much more familiar with things like the Pond and Green Street. Saturday night there was a great dinner in the beautiful gym. The weather was great the entire weekend. I hope it’s that good for our 50th! We’re also enjoying our 5 grandchildren, 3 in California and 2 in Connecticut.

Her brother, Cameron is an alum of Landmark and really enjoyed the school. I continue to do my Real Estate Management Business and my Vintage Jewelry. My husband dabbled at “retirement” for nearly two years and we both decided he was not ready. So back to work he went!

From my heart, I would like to say that I would love to join you all to celebrate our 40th during Reunion 2014, however, a very significant travel itinerary calls for the use of our time. I am sending my prayers to you all. I hope you have a splendid time laughing and bringing back memories from your hearts. I want to say a special thank you to Victoria Zialcita Strousse, my ’73 room-

Charlotte Newton writes: I had a wonderful two weeks in France in June with 3 friends. The weather was perfect, the food fantastic and the camaraderie could not be topped! Our escapades began in Paris, and then we were off to the south, via a river boat, to Provence where the lavender was just beginning to bloom. We got up close with “le pont” in Avignon. I had to have a bit of a twirl on the boat deck as it circled what
remains of the actual bridge. I am excited to report that I have located my dear friend and roommate Elizabeth “Libby” Ramage! Libby is married, lives in Princeton, NJ and has two grown sons. She continues to create her art, having focused on children’s art. You can reach her at ramcar@msn.com! It is a fabulous feeling to be reconnected after so many years.
