Hello Rae!
I was at the reunion in Seattle and enjoyed you leading the 'hours long'
singing of WWI songs. It was wonderful.
I also had my picture painted by Bev and recognize you in the line-up in
your uniform.
I have just received a VHS tape filmed at Bev's studio which features
her and her paintings. I can recognize a couple of "sisters" from the
reunion in Seattle: notably Josie Dodge and Iris Craig as well as
yourself. I recognize some faces but can't remember the names. Joan
Reichardt, who writes to this list, is among the Canadians Bev has
painted.
I will try for Ottawa in May and 'think' about Chicago. Health and other
matters might intervene.
In the meantime, we will stand "shoulder to shoulder" and hope to meet
somewhere, sometime.
