School Story:

Before Christmas, Dr Kovach had our German class singing in German. She stopped the class, escorted me down to Grace Engel's choir room, where the class was stopped for my impromptu "audition". Thus began my time in the choir where I met my best friends at Mumford and Eugene Hancock, the accompanist, who became a mentor and friend.

Happy Birthday and I hope you and family are well. Are you still practicing or fully retired? My wife picked up a small position with UMD/CP overseeing student teachers. I'm fully retired. We focus on our 5 grandchildren ages 9 - 19, one at UMD/CP. She coaches and completes with the wrestling club, a surprising switch from ballet! How many grandchildren are you following?

Stuart, Richard Bloom, Henry Bodzin and I sang in the choir and boys ensemble. We were friends and supported each other. My best memories of Mumford are singing together. I had envisioned seeing him on a return trip to Arizona where I lived serveral years.

The Ensemble was the best part of my Mumford life. I kept in touch with Eugene Hancock for many years. Unfortunately, keeping connected to students was more difficult. Henry Bodzin moved to Oregon and I lost contact. I saw Karen Dobbins in about 1972, but she's
. Charlotte Thomas lives in NY. Florence Chickering lives in Oregon Does choir and ensemble standout in your memories?

I retired from NASA on June 30, exactly 53 years after accepting a commission in the Public Health Service and joining NASA immediately upon retirement. Very fortunate to have served in two of the outstanding Federal agencies. My wife, Terri, retired after many years as a special education teacher and picked up a partime position at University of Maryland mentoring student teachers. We have five delightful grandchildren - all living in the DMV area. Four years ago I suffered a spinal cord infarction which greatly impaired my mobility so our travel plans have been greatly reduced.
