[Oxford63] Reunion

Wed Apr 18 20:44:45 MDT 2018

Hi Nancy -
So nice to hear from you, even if all the news is not all that good. It
sounds like you landed on your feet,
and life is ok. No fun dealing with contentious business matters. I wish
you all the luck in the world. I hope
that everyone involved with property loss due to the fire is fighting like
you are.
Wish we could see you at the reunion. Perhaps we shall have to wait until
our 60th??? Yikes! It certainly would
be good to see you again.
Best to you and George .. and may CA weather and events be kinder in the
coming years.
Much love -
Debbie Edson
