Class Notes

So many of us have dropped our landline phones or ignore unfamiliar numbers to avoid telemarketers, it makes keeping in touch more difficult. I did hear from Betty Davies Morie. She has moved to Westminster-Canterbury in Richmond to be closer to her daughter, Beth who is married to an attorney and has two elementary school age children. Betty’s son Paul Morie Jr. has a son, Zachary who is in his final year of residency at Sentara Medical Center in Williamsburg.

Mickey Foley McDaniel wrote from Georgia. One granddaughter graduated as a physician’s assistant and is employed in a hospital emergency room in Cattanooga. Another granddaughter is working on an advanced degree as a child life specialist and is on the staff of a children’s hospital in Chicago.

I have one granddaughter in her second year at the University of Missouri. Her sister is in her first year at Iowa State. My son retired this year after a 39 year career with Gannett newspapers.

My biennial Chilton family reunion was held June 28-30, again at Shrinemont in Orkney Springs, Va. There were 44 in attendance with five alumni of Mary Washington.
