Masters in Liberal Arts at Houston Baptist University (HBU) and it has
taken up all of my free time! In fact, I just completed a Study Abroad trip
to London in June where we visited Stratford on Avon where Shakespeare
lived, as well as Oxford, Canterbury, and all the major London sites. We
also studied and saw several Shakespeare plays at the Globe Theatre. This
past year I also traveled to Chicago (met Oprah at a party), New York,
Boston, Tucson, San Diego, San Francisco, etc. We just spent a wonderful
month in Nantucket. My two older kids just turned 21. Chase is a senior at
the University of Arizona and Alexandra is a senior at the University of
Houston. Cole (15) is in 10th grade and plays football and basketball for
Memorial High School. See pictures on Photos - 1.

** Our heartfelt condolences go out to several classmates who have lost a
parent recently. Nancy Rollins Stone's mother, Jackie Foster, passed away
in June. David Vonderheid's dad, Martin Vonderheid, passed away in May.
He was very involved in the community and was well-known as an avid
youth sports coach, having coached many of our classmates at one time or
another. Joan Turner's mom, Ruth Turner, died in February. Ruth had a lot
of patience with the gatherings at her house over the years! Donna Boyd's
father also passed away in February. Mr. Boyd was also well known for
coaching high school baseball. Pam Shaw Scallia's mother, Joyce Shaw,
and Joanne Jones, the mother of Julie Jones, both died in May 2006.
** Our deepest sympathies are with Mark Fuqua whose brother, Lance
Fuqua (53), died recently.
** Barbara Zabojnik Rahmig has been living the good life lately as she
and her husband, Ken, have been traveling a lot on their boat, "Livin the
Dream". Ken recently semi-retired and they plan to spend almost four
months a year traveling, fishing, and living on their fabulous boat. They
spent most of the summer in Miami, Fort Lauderdale, and the Florida Keys.
