Since PC, I have worked in New York City in the Agency for Child Development and the Department of Homeless Services.

I am married to my Romanian-born husband Peter for 25 years, and have 2 adult sons, Stephen (23) and Aaron (21).

I remain friends with Cathy Weiller Buchalter and Pat Caracci DeSouza of PC Bahia. We travelled to Brazil last year with our husbands on a great, much-awaited sentimental journey. There were lots of laughs and lots of caipirinhas!

Recently, I was looking through the slides and old letters that my mother had kept and it brought back such memories... I went searching just out of curiosity. Is it possible that it has been over 35 years?!?!?

Last year I returned with Rich Davis (Sto. Amaro) and Steve Horman (Lencois) to Lencois for an Eco-Tourism Conference that Steve organized. Due in large part to Steve's efforts Lencois is one of the most popular tourist destinations in Brasil. There we met Judy (Kaplinger) Sena Gomes, Art and Brenda Powers and Mike Permoda - que farra!!! In 1982 I married Mary Alcox who had been in our group. I am project manager for the UW Madison's Sweet Corn Breeding and Genetics program.

Comments:
After a lonely year deep in the interior of Bahia in Canal de Irece, I followed PCV Rich Davis in Santo Amaro, and knew Dan Johnson, Art and Branda Powers, and Charles Fortin. During my brief year in Santo Amaro, I continued the work of previous volunteers in advancing the construction of the Sacramento Community Center, working with CARITAS, SETRABES, Mayor Genebaldo, Seu Antonio Pedrera, and the unforgettable Irmã Maria de São Pedro. I hope to eventually make contact again with Richard Collins Davis. If anyone can help me do that, please respond!
