I served in Honduras for 34 years as a missionary with CAM International later named Camino Global and now Avant Ministries. I retired in 2019 and now live in the Richmond, VA area. I am involved in my local church and Community Bible Study. I also hope to teach Bible studies with some of the Hispanic ladies in my area.

retired from the practice of Internal Medicine in June of 2013. Since then she has been traveling all over the U.S. with her husband for his contracts in architectural photography, enjoying museums, gardens, arboretums and good food along the way. In September she started helping (part-time) as a visiting scholar at the Johns Hopkins School of Public Health, where she got her PhD long ago. Carol has been teaching graduate students there and organizing a Journal Club for the Wendy Klag Center for Autism and Developmental Disabilities. She is also active at Brown Memorial Park Avenue Presbyterian Church in Baltimore, where Carol has served as an Elder, and recently spearheaded a project to help unaccompanied migrant children who are waiting to join family members. She would love to hear from classmates.

writes to say she is busy in retirement from medical practice in Internal Medicine in Baltimore, is serving as Guest Faculty at the Johns Hopkins Bloomberg School of Public Health, helping grad students in Epidemiology and in education and research on Autistic Spectrum Disorder. She has increased her activities in environmental work, including continuing to serve as co-chair of her neighborhood’s Greening and Recycling Committee, co-founding the Green Towson Alliance this year to work on issues in the broader geographic area, and recently being appointed to Baltimore County’s Commission on Environmental Quality which advises the County Council. And finally she has found time for water aerobics, bird-watching and foreign travel. She says her background from Maryville College, with a major in Biology, exposure to environmental education in the Smokies and to the Oak Ridge National Lab, and an additional major in Med Technology all helped her get started. “Thank you for this!”

writes in to share that he retired in February after 43 years with Widener University – the last 15 years as Executive Director of Operations and Chief Sustainability Officer. He is now residing in Rehoboth Beach Delaware.

has had a lot of changes in the past year. Her mother's health deteriorated to the point that she had to go into a nursing home, which is still hard for her to deal with. Her niece and 8-year-old daughter moved in with her in June. The duplex she shared with her mother was too small for 3, and they feel very lucky to have found a really nice house and moved in August. Right before we moved I had to help my beloved 20-year-old cat Zack pass from this world. Still have Maynard, who is now a 4-year-old kitty and my girl Kate, my herding breed mix is still with me. Still looking for a job, but my transcription business has picked up in the meantime. Would love to hear from MC friends….
