Diana Koester Voswinckle
continues to enjoy life and her
beautiful orchid garden in La Antigua, Guatemala ‒ where
the weather is perfect (land of eternal spring) ‒ with the
added attraction of seeing the Fuego volcano erupting from
her terrace! Diana’s son in Guatemala City has a lovely
girlfriend who is an actress currently performing in
Grease
,
which brings back memories.
Andrya Solomon Schulte
is returning to live in Canada
after 22 years in the Bahamas. She and her husband are
initially investigating Ottawa and planning to arrive in April
after a brief stop in Augusta to attend The Masters.
Janet Baillie (Mcphee)
is missing her husband Barry
Mees, who died very suddenly in early 2016, but she is
thrilled with her first grandchild Libby, born two months
later. While visiting Libby and her parents in San Francisco,
Janet took a weeklong sewing course with Sandra Betzina
to reawaken her snoozing interest in making clothes…and
it worked!
Judy McAlpine Duffy
recently retired from CIBC and
has moved into a smaller home with an expanded quilt room
so that she can indulge her passion, her quilting business.
She and Gerry plan to travel when they can get away from
their businesses.
Margaret (Margie) Wright Knox
is still happily living
in Vancouver and now also on beautiful Hornby Island,
one of the northern Gulf Islands, where friends and all four
children plus four grandchildren (ages 11, 10, 2 and 1) visit!
Her daughter Heather and family live in Vancouver; her
son Patrick and family are just outside of Fredericton; her
daughter Elizabeth (Bitsy) lives in Berlin, Germany and her
son Charlie is nearby.
Caroline (Carrie) Barber Crerar
enjoys retirement, but
still works at St. Mike’s occasionally, covering for nurses
on holiday. She lives with her daughter in Guelph and visits
Beth Evans
in Toronto when she works, but is moving into
a new condo in Guelph in May.
Gillian Duder Huntley
is still gardening and flower
arranging at the Hospice, and does lots of Scottish country
dancing and cross-country skiing. She travelled to Peru
with her son and hiked in the Andes (including part of the
Inca Trail into Machu Picchu) and spent time at an eco
lodge in the Amazon Basin with more hikes into the jungle.
Gillian highly recommends this very adventurous trip and
encourages us to try it while we are still “young”!
Class Rep
Virginia (Ginny) Marshall
has enjoyed
communicating with classmates for the last four years,
but is ready to pass the baton. Please consider stepping
up. 2017 will be Ginny’s last year as a competitive golfer at
the provincial and national levels, but she will continue to
attend the golf tournaments as a Level 3 Rules Official. Have
an amazing year, everyone!

and York Regions. This year will be their sixth.
Wendy
Plummer Hinde
and her husband Mel have been a
huge help with this.
Elizabeth (Betsy) Hall-Findlay
is
still working and loves it. She travels the world teaching
about breast surgery. She helped sponsor a Syrian
refugee family in Canmore. She has taken up kite-surfing
and snow-kiting in her spare time and joins her European
colleagues every year on a skiing and kiting plastic
surgery workshop. She still finds life fun and interesting.
Though retired,
Elizabeth (Liz) Maunzell
works and
collaborates with younger colleagues part time. She and
her husband Guy spent six weeks in Australia at the end
of 2016. Liz was born in Melbourne and Australia always
thrills her with its unique colours, sounds and scents. Liz
and Guy bought a house in the town of La Malbaie, east
of Quebec City on the St. Lawrence. Currently working
on an exhibition of her photographs, she has studied fine
art digital photographic printing with a master printer in
Maine. Liz’s first exhibition, titled
Bords d’eaux (Waters’
Edge)
was this spring at the municipal library in La
Malbaie. If anyone should happen that way, Liz is in the
phone book.
