Class Notes

Our middle son is a freshman at Tufts University, so only one son, Frank, a high school senior, remains at home. Eldest Tom is finishing his senior year at Yale. My dad, 93, spent the summer and fall with us. Work keeps us busy as does traveling, and I’m ready to downsize this big house.

Perry Roberts LeGaux and Elden LeGaux of Greensboro, N.C., are enjoying their time as empty nesters and traveling more. Daughter Amanda, 22, graduated last year from Western Carolina University, lives on her own, and works in advertising at Trone in Greensboro. Jordan, 19, is a sophomore in the music theater program at Millikin University in Decatur, Ill. Her twin, Kelsey, majors in nutrition and food management at Appalachian State University in Boone and has aspirations of becoming a baker and pastry chef.

Glen Bell traveled with his family to Alaska, visiting Seward and Denali. His sons started fourth and sixth grade in August. Mary Ann Mayer’s bed and breakfast is doing well despite the economy. They participated in this year’s Topher Bill Memorial Scholarship Auction and their local Walk MS, donated rooms for servicemen and women to stay for free at their B&B in honor of Veterans Day, and enjoy giving back to the community.

Chris Landon lives in Fredericksburg, and his businesses, Landon Companies, LLC, are doing well. Wife Ronda has done government contracting for 10 years, oldest daughter Leah was to start VCU this fall, youngest daughter Lindsey is a high school senior, and son Tim works full time and is in his fifth year with Stafford County Fire and Rescue. Chris is involved with local history, in particular helping save Civil War battlefields.
