Of course we also enjoy spending time with two of our children here in the Northeast. Our oldest son is a partner in a New York law firm and our daughter is a marketing executive. Our youngest resides in L.A. and is an inspiring journalist.” Kim Duff Selby writes, “Greetings fellow Everglades alumnae. Here’s a little bit about me and what is going on in my third act. I started a podcast called Ignite Your Spark , and am in the process of launching a motivational speaking career and doing print and commercial ads. You are never too old. I’m out in the world hopefully inspiring others to age gracefully and fulfill their wildest dreams. I live in Northern California, have two amazing adult children, a patient and funny husband of 32 years and was in the fashion industry for many, many years. I keep in touch with my great Everglades friends, Kate Sullivan Lindseth ’75, Marian Burnett Danse, Merry Cole Bender ’75 and many others via social media. Thankful for technology for keeping us all connected.” 1973 REUNION APRIL 2023 Class Agent: Bonnie Kassal Maisel (NurseBB55@gmail.com ) Susan Crapo (deceased), see Trish Crapo ’76 1974 Class Agent: Georgia Penn Noble (gpn56@comcast.net ) Cynthia Cahill and Jan Rose Peltz, see Karen Flannery James ’72
