The big news is that I am now located in sunny Sierra Vista, Arizona. I have a great view of the Huachuca Mountains and am almost surrounded by the Army Base of Fort Huachuca. Nice to be able to use base facilities again.

I am finishing my last couple of classes for my Master’s Degree in Nonprofit Management with New England College (NEC). It is all on line, so I have been able to transition easily from North Carolina.

It is warm, dry and sunny at the moment. We did have some snow and ice in the winter, which I understand is unusual.

I will be interested to hear how my classmates are doing. My new address is 3700 Barahona Dr, Sierra Vista, AZ 85650 and I am using the same cell 252-676-3202. I enjoyed the reunion last year, and would love to hear from any of you. Yea!! Mary Washington and Fredericksburg.
