Many good wishes!  I had forgotten that you “paved the way” in Sungai Lui !  We were there in 1980-1982.  What a rich history to celebrate.

         Thanksgiving at the Kansas City House long ago!

 

Dear All,

 

Dick and I had a great time looking through 50 years of photos collected since our 6 am wedding at Daily Office, 30 March 1974, in Chicago.  Then I remember Dick then going to Washington DC a few months later to get the proper credentials as an agricultural consultant so we could support ourselves and the Malaysia ICA financially.   And off we went!  Our thanks to all of you and many more in our community who have contributed to that  journey since - from Chicago, to Kuala Lumpur and Sungei Lui, to Medan Indonesia, PTP VI and Bubun, to Lorimor Iowa and the Kansas City Youth House, to India, and now Taipei for 33 years!  

 

With deep gratitude to you for being part of our lives,

 

Gail and Dick West
