Linda and I sold our forested Atherton home of 50-plus-years that, when we moved in, had on one side an acre with a one-bedroom cabin and, on the other, 20 acres of foxes, raccoons and skunks. We moved to a retirement community in forested Portola Valley (the Sequoias). We’ve been covid-confined to the property for […]

Unique times we’re in. Lynne, our kids and their kids, are all handling the Covid-19 event well, and our son-in-law’s deployment (Marine pilot) was postponed, so that’s a great thing! We’re feeling lucky that we have only the first-world problems of missed skiing and missed trips, and that in retirement we’ve figured out how to […]

Samuel French ’66
Although I retired in January, 2019, expecting to have a nice long rest with my wife, Gail, she passed away two weeks ago after a long battle with lung cancer. She had chemo therapy and radiation, but the thing that contributed the most to her weakness was the use of opiates to fight spinal pain. […]
