This past weekend, Dave and I attended his 50th
reunion at Choate. Guess who I played tennis with? Joe
Mygatt! (Tim's cousin, of course!) We had a good laugh when
we figured out the connection and as a result I was reminded that I hadn't
written anything for the HGHS bio. So here goes......
After living more than 20 years in South Florida, Dave and I did the
opposite of most retiring couples and moved back North. We returned in '99
and bought some land in the Berkshires on Lake Ashmere in Hinsdale, Mass. We still live there now.
We own and operate a construction company (L D Builders) . Two of our sons, Matt (38) and
Mike (35) work with us as we try to slow down.
Dave and I will celebrate our 45th wedding anniversary this
June and one of our greatest thrills is to watch our grandchildren (4)
participate in school sports, band, chorus, etc. activities. We manage to
visit our oldest son, Chris (41), and his family three or four times a
year. They live in Birmingham, Alabama.
I speak to Van every couple of weeks and we still laugh over our past days
at HGHS. I so look forward to seeing everyone again. I
can't think back to my days at HGHS without smiling!
1997 recap. Louise and husband Dave have 3 children, Chris, Matt, and Mike and 4 grandchildren. Louise is working. They have built houses in Boca Raton, Ft Lauderdale, and in the Reserve in Port St. Lucie, Fla. They have spent years attending high school sporting events and playing golf as a family. She spent 20 years playing tennis in the Palm Beach and Broward Co Women’s Tennis Leagues. They share a house in Vermont with Louise’s brother Greg and enjoy holidays skiing and relaxing there. Her special accomplishment has been the caretaking of her family. “It has been a wonderful life experience and wouldn’t trade it for anything”.
