Warren Daniell had a successful hip replacement and an operation to untangle his prostate and says he is “Back to normal except for the use of a cane, which will, I hope, stop before the end of 2017.” With that behind them, he and Dot, encouraged by a long overdue Alaska Airlines direct flight from Boston, last August visited their daughter, Beth ’77, outside of Portland, Oregon. They then drove down to their annual family gathering of some 20 relatives in Ashland, a pleasant college town just north of California and home of the Oregon Shakespeare Festival, where they have met since 1982 and almost feel as if it were a second home. They are near the top of the list for a retirement home in Concord, “but the move is going slow.” Foxy and Helen Parker have stayed close to home the last two years. Foxy was pretty well immobilized and had orthopedic back surgery with vertebra fusion in late 2016 from which he continues to recover. Helen has had a heart problem, which with rehab has been brought under control. At this writing they are planning to resume their annual Christmas visit with their two daughters living in Vail, Colorado. Helen and I both observed how family who move to the western mountain area tend to stay there. Foxy, a superb skier, is hoping to get on the cross-country boards. Historic regulars, they expect to attend our big 70th, where, I’m told, we’ll be guests of the Hanover Inn. Pete and Anne Foster have moved to a retirement home in Haddam, Connecticut. Their new phone number is (860) 345-0954. Similarly, Bud Munson’snew number is (603) 442-5782. Everyone at the mini liked his new condo. I am pleased not to have seen those black football uniforms worn at the Penn game last year. The Indian symbol and Eleazar Wheelock were fun, but a problem; the Big Green, blah, but okay; “Go Black”—come on. I would much appreciate hearing what’s going on with you or your progeny. Contacting me at the email below is the easiest way.
