Hi 1-9-6-3; 

It is fun to read about all of you!

The most important things in my life are my husband John and our sons, Mark and John IV.  Mark is an engineer in Detroit working for Tri Ad.  His most notable project so far was release engineer for the convertible/truck the Chevrolet SSR.  (Still single).

John was married two years ago in Prague and he and Silvie are also in the Detroit area.  John is working on a masters in Institutional and Industrial Psychology and Silvie is in law school. 

John sold his business in October and has been "undoing" his company since then.  (I thought he was going to retire!)

Don't know what I have done - although I was bitten by the aviation "bug" and became a Certified Flight Instructor with an Instrument Instructor license as well as a multi engine license so I can fly John's twin Comanche.  I taught people to fly for 15 years and loved it.  Then I had an opportunity to fly the Women's Air Race Classic which was one of the most fantastic experience in the world.   Flew with Margaret Ringenburg who was a WASP in World War II:  of our three races we placed 16th, 6th and 2nd. 

Volunteering is a big time consumer for me.  Somehow I became the fundraising chairman of the Terre Haute Air Show and just finished a fundraising dinner for 164 to support the Swope Art Museum. Also enjoy tennis, cooking, gardening and sailing.

John and I hope to retire (!) in Charlevoix, Michigan where we have a log cabin waiting for us.

Hope this finds all of you well and happy - see you soon!

Lynn   :)
