[Oxford63] OUR ENDOWMENT NEWS

[Rena Koopman]

Hi Courtney
Many thanks for keeping us all up on what's happening. An added bonus for me
is that since one of my nieces (Trice's daughter) is also attending the
summer art program in Chicago (actually she will go to both sessions), I
have now been able to introduce Melissa and Rebecca to each other via email.
Love
Rena
