Class Notes

Nanalou West Sauder, who has been living at Kendal Community in Lexington since 2010 was, delighted when her 1840s brick farmhouse finally sold in November. She has so much to report I will save the rest for the next issue!

Mickey Foley McDaniel and husband cruised the Danube with stops in Budapest, Brataslava, Vienna, Salzburg and Prague, enjoying the sights, fine food and their fellow travelers. They also made a trip to Lake Tahoe to visit old friends. A granddaughter graduated last year from the University of Georgia; another is a senior at Macon University.

Carole Petley Toone went to Mackinac Island last September. She also enjoyed a visit to the Henry Ford Museum in Dearborn. She continues her work of many years with the Culpeper Literacy Council. Her family traveled to help her celebrate her 80th birthday. An age change that most of us marked last year!

Angela Walton Barksdale spent a week at Bald Head Island with friends last fall. “Red” Rosanelli Metzger spends half the year at Lake Winnipesaukee, New Hampshire, and had just returned to her winter home in Richmond when I reached her. She was looking forward to her annual holiday trip to New York City with her son, Father Joe, and their visit to Rome in January, where last year she attended a private Mass with Pope Francis. Red has a granddaughter at Longwood, a grandson at Hampden Sydney and another, a Kappa Sig, at UVA.

Also, some sad news to report: Mary Linda Fitchett died Oct. 29, 2014, at home near Eastville, Virginia.
I have visited many retirement communities but for now am living at the farm or in my in town apartment.
