GERT MARTIN BRUMLEVE A’54: Ben and I have been in South Africa, New Zealand, and Australia from Feb. 9 to March 9. I am forwarding a picture that was taken in Zambia at a village. These children make an imprint upon your heart that can never be erased. They have so little materially, but their hearts are so opened to their intuition and instincts. I felt a soul connection with them that will always be in my heart. I also had a reverse experience when we visited the classroom of the teenagers. I felt so much darkness and fear surrounding them. They are at a time of their life when they are coming into their sexuality, and instead of feeling the joy of the life that is unfolding within them, they are surrounded by signs that say, ”You will either be affected by AIDS or you will be infected with AIDS.” Coming into their sexuality is one of fear of disease and death rather than one of joy and the love of continuing life. Our whole trip was awesome in so many ways and one filled with many memories.

Brenda Greenwell Deibel A’59: (May 30, 2009) I am still full-time employed and own Deibel’s Greenhouse. We’ve just finished all spring bedding plants – tomatoes and peppers. Now this week we’ve potted for sale in October. We’ve also potted poinsettias. Yes, I am a hands-on laborer and am having way too much fun to retire. We have seven grandchildren who I get to watch play just about every day. Three of the boys play baseball, and six of them swim on swim teams for six weeks. All in all the golden years are way too much fun to get into trouble!

Mary D. Bowers A’78: I’m living in Birmingham, Ala. I would love to hear from classmates. Does anyone know where Mary Beth Roberts Linzmeyer is?
