Thank you so much, Jaime, for letting us know about Joyce Quimby. I've counted her as a wonderful friend since 1970. Priscilla Wilson On Aug 14, 2012, at 6:40 AM, Jaime R Vergara wrote:

Those in this listserv who knew of the Quimbys (Tokyo and Manila), Joyce Quimby, like the rest of us, lives with her own case of 'physical disability', in her case, cancer. One of her daughters got her a page in CaringBridge and I would recommend that those of had known them might want to visit the site and sign-in, at least, or leave a word or two.

Joyce husband, Don, was a CEO for Union Carbide in Manila until he was diagnosed with cancer from what I gathered was unprotected exposure to radiation while serving in Nevada in the early days of atomic radiation tests. He organized a Town Meeting that Mary Lou and I, and another Order member whose name I have forgotten (kiss my Alz), facilitated. From Majuro, I went back to do a follow-up, in time to give the eulogy at Don's funeral.
As our memories wane, those who remember the Quimbys might give her site a read.
