Hi Jean:

Very nice picture of John and Gwen with Harvey Hoekstra whom I did not have the honor of meeting.

Amongst my Schutz friends of course Jim & David Hoekstra I often think of but have not heard from them or of them since leaving Schutz in 1965 (more than 50 years ago). How are they doing??? John and Gwen of course are always in my mind and prayers… I always remember John arriving in Cameroon with Chuck & their Dad when still at Schutz during the summer vacation (1964?) driving to see us at our home in Ebolowa.
Later John did come back to Cameroon ( I was in charge for our construction company) building a 100 km new highway from Douala to Kekem.

We spoke on the phone whereby I offered to send one of our planes to pick him up from Yaoundé for us to spend some time together… He did not have time and I very much have regretted that not happening. Please transmit my best to both of them for me Jean.

I am glad you are back home, safe and in good health Jean. I am much better (shingles), the only thing my left eye is still very sensitive to light.

As I am typing on my Laptop my left eye shuts (automatically), the same when I watch TV. Outside with my sun glasses it functions all right.
It soon will be all healed.

All my best to you Jean, Thank you for your enlightening mails. Love, Alexandre

PS: I follow news & events about Schutz… it has changed a lot… how many American students still attend Schutz???
