We have been married over 50 years (53 to be exact). We have lived in 43 years, having moved from the East Coast. We have volunteered at Corner Books for about 7 or 8 years. As active community members, what other organizations do you volunteer for? David likes to garden, travel, keep up with college friends, as well as family. He also keeps busy being on the Richardson Bay Sanitary District Board. I like to read, do ancestry, plan travel with family friends. What is the most satisfying part of your volunteer work? I like helping people find books or recommending good reads to them. David likes talking to old new customers helping with donations (those books can be mighty heavy). What do you like to do when you are not volunteering? We are now awaiting the arrival of four of David s fraternity brothers wives for a four-day reunion. They are from the class of 59 it is 59 years since they graduated.
