Juan M. Ogarrio ’11, our ALLISON WILLIAMS BUNKLEY scholar, writes, “Born and raised in Guatemala, I attended the American School there. [After high school] I suddenly decided to give US universities a try. Serendipity got me here. . . . I would rather be nowhere else. I’m taking two languages, the integrated science double-course, and a writing seminar. I attend every . . . event I can fit in. I still manage to do homework, study for exams, practice martial arts [and], translate documents for nonprofit organizations. Thank you for the opportunity you have given me.” Whew!

JOHN REA writes, “My wife and I are living in Hollenbeck Palms retirement home. She lives in the nursing building. I attended a large clan reunion in Michigan last June with three of my daughters and three grandsons.”

They still summer on Orcas Island, where they serve their special wines at a dinner for the Chamber Music Festival performers.

Presbyterian minister DICK ARMSTRONG recently showed his extensive baseball memorabilia to a visitor at his Windrows home in Princeton.
