My family and I are in Suva, Fiji, where I am U.S. Ambassador to Fiji, Kiribati, Nauru, Tonga, and Tuvalu. I have been a career Foreign Service Officer since 1983. If I can be in the States on Reunion Weekend, I'd love to attend.
My Mac Memories: Drama Choros, Professor Mitau's courses, and dorm life in Dayton Hall.
I am retired from teaching in Minneapolis. This is my 21st year working with our church’s Wednesday night program for children. I also help teach a morning Bible study for women at my church. I meet with Mac friends frequently, but miss my former dorm mates.

Ok, since I agreed to be a co-chair for our cluster reunion, I'll be the first to write a reunion note. Planning our reunion is a lot more fun than my day job! I've been in-house counsel for a non-profit, integrated health care system (22 hospitals, 600 employed physicians, and managed care plans) for almost 25 years. y husband, Rick Maneval, worked for Kennecott Utah Copper for about half that time and now has his own engineering consulting firm. Last summer, my daughter Tacy and her husband Brian Quinn re-located from Berkeley, after Brian finished his Ph.D., to Westfield, N.J., where they took jobs with the publisher Prentice-Hall and the Robert Wood Johnson Foundation, respectively. Now, it won't be as easy for them to come home for ski weekends and we'll be traveling east more often.
I want to encourage all the members of the classes of 1967,1968, and 1969 to make plans now to attend our cluster reunion June 1- 3, 2007. Consider this as your first invitation because you'll be hearing more from the committee!
My Mac Memories:
- Checking my P.O.
- My dormmates in Turck
- Debate tournaments with Jackie Schwebke Schmidt ’69
- Sharing confidences with Susan Bartsch Backer ’69
