Class Notes

Thanks to Nanalou West Sauder I was able to write one last column for the MWC class of 1956. She and her daughter Anne ’80 attended the retirement party for Martin Wilder, UMW President Rick Hurley’s chief of staff. Nanalou is a former rector of the University and now lives at Kendal, a retirement community near Lexington. Also living there is Lucy Coates Moise.  Rheta Burks Snider retired from teaching in Northern Virginia and with husband and fellow teacher moved back to her native Rockbridge County. Ozzie Mask is doing well. She is a charter member of Potomac Harmony Chorus and continues directing the Sweet Adelines. She keeps up with students past and present. Ozzie retired from teaching English and journalism in 1990 after 30 years at Jeb Stuart High School in Fairfax County. You can “Google” her name on your iPad!

Anne Henry Brugh retired to The Glebe, a retirement community near Roanoke. I spoke to Mickey Foley McDaniel in Atlanta. She and her husband are still on a waiting list for the retirement community that they have chosen. I tried to reach Barbara Strangmann Hiscock twice at her apartment at Broadmead in Cockeysville MD but she was out and about! My first cousin’s granddaughter was married in April. My granddaughter, the bride’s third cousin, was the flowergirl, same generation just thirty year age difference!
