I had two Spring business trips to the US. In May, I was proud to attend St. Jude's Angels and Stars Gala in Miami, an annual dinner which honored Gloria and Emilio Estefan. I stopped by Washington on the way for a quick visit with my gal pals....

It was wonderful to see them!! My fourth brother, David, just moved to Panama with his family and my sister, the oldest of the six Sackett kids, lives next door to my parents in Iowa with her husband, Mike.
