Despite the pandemic, life goes on. Caroline Corr Newlon and husband Blaine became first-time grandparents when daughter Sarah gave birth to their adorable grandson Levi in 2020. 

Sally Hart Morgan wrote that she retired after 31 years in local government planning and development. Husband John had already retired from teaching at Emory & Henry College. Both were happy to have son Jack, who lives in Washington, D.C., and daughter Jessie, who lives in Denver, visit in December since they were able to work remotely. Sally also added that her freshman-year group from Randolph Third Right had been convening every two weeks on Zoom. She’s enjoyed seeing Lisa Bratton Soltis, Gayle Weinberger Petro, Donna Anaya, Karin Hedberg, Nancy Quaintance Nelles, and Shelley Roberts Havnoonian. 

Lisa Jenkins has arranged for a couple of MWC Zoom get-togethers including Betsy Larson Kyker, Carol Middlebrook, Linda McCarthy Milone, and me. 

Nena Lee Kobayashi is working for defense contractor CACI on a multi-mission surface combatant contract for the Department of the Navy. She also takes care of her 98-year-old father, who lives nearby. 

My sister, Patricia Goliash Andril ’80, had one of her drawings, Floating on Clouds, featured in CP Treasures – Colored Pencil Masterworks From Around the Globe, Volume 7. Her beautiful rowboat drawing was also one of the three highlighted on the book’s cover.
