After 45 years in Vancouver,
Patricia (Pat) Wilson
Scarlett
has moved to Kelowna. In her spare time,
she plays bridge, attends exercise class, walks with
a group, belongs to a book club, attends church and
works on genealogy. Last year, she travelled to Spain
and Portugal. These activities and travel are typical of
those in our class who are blessed with reasonably good
health and mobility. Among them are
Frances (Fran)
Smith Stronach, Paige Wadsworth McDermott, Ann
Hutchison Carley, Jennifer (Jeff) Weatherstone Neal,
Cynthia (Cyndy) Thomas Smith
and
Mary Risley
, who
is now in transition from teaching cooking to running a
food rescue organization in San Francisco.
Finally,
Joan (Joanie) Kingsmill Roper
discovered a
newspaper article dating back to the late 1950s when
she was a Simpson’s Club representative for Havergal. It
was about Joan and a fellow representative from another
school. In an effort to reconnect, Joan sent it to the
school, resulting in a catch-up call between Joan and her
long-ago friend, as well as a press clipping for inclusion
in the archives…Havergal connects!

a wonderful 55th Reunion luncheon at Rosedale Golf
Club last October. A terrific turnout! We certainly
missed
Mary (Sassy) Waddell
, who hosted so many
of our reunions in her home and sadly passed away last
summer. Nevertheless, nearly 40 classmates gathered to
celebrate our long-lasting friendships and to toast those
no longer with us.
It was obvious with many of us celebrating our 75th
birthdays this year that
