“
Familiar faces, not so
familiar faces, brought
together by a common bond
and thoroughly enjoying one
another’s company even though
many decades spanned the
various groups that I chatted
with throughout the evening.
The OA Club President,
Mike Stevens, was an excellent
host and it was thrilling and
reassuring to hear from Felicity
Lusk on the current health of the
school
