2006 Update
Katy (Wright) Young is keeping busy near Phoenix, Ariz, since retiring from college and HS teaching of French and World Religions, last year. She is now Pres. of her local Spanish Club…over 175 members…with 10 classes (beginning, intermediate & advanced) and 5 Fiestas/year. Olé!

Her husband Bill is still Rector of a nearby Episcopal Church, so she did the computer graphics for their new directory, recently and also sings solos (voice and flute) in the choir & layreads. Also, she’s alto/2nd. Sop. in a women’s chorus, the Sonoran Sounds.

She enjoys her local computer club & French Club (mostly native speakers) and PEO, as well. Bill is also very active in his Masonic Lodge. For fun, Katy just enjoys “playing PC” (XP and IPAQ handheld)…and both love visiting their son on Oahu — when he’s not stationed in Iraq (2005) or Korea (current), as well as visits to San Francisco and to their daughter, son-in-law and “grands” in California.
