Here is a pic my DD took of the seven of us - the one sitting third from right is the bride's mother. There were about 70 in our class and here are 7. But one of my greatest satisfying excercises that has been done through me is to hunt and gather as many as 47 of them, many of us now meet or call for occasions. I began this in the year 2000 -- it has another long story [posted in a blog] and I have met all 46 at least once and have made a list much to the pleasure of most of them. Remember it was after 30 years since we left for different schools. [We use the word 'college' from class 11 here, but in other cities, they call it after the 12th] They hold me responsible for bringing many old friendships together and I am quite happy about it. If people make use of this it is my greatest satisfaction. Of course, another classmate also has contributed a bit to this excercise. One man seen here is a surgeon and the other is in a good job holding a high admn. position. One lady is a scientist, the others are HWs. They did jobs for some years but left to take care of their kids.

Here we go! A pic by my DD.
