June - Beech Update

We just returned from our summer visit to San Francisco. Alex, Leslie and I spent time with my mother, sister and brother, and had lots of “teen-sightings” along the way. Lots of visiting, good meals, trekking from end to end of the bay area, and a ceremony for my father which ended in spreading his ashes in the back yard.

Leslie is doing great – had her last radiation treatment today (June 2nd)! Alex has completed his first year at Mizzou and is now home and looking for a summer job. Ryan will complete his full term (27 months!) in the Peace Corps in El Salvador this August and plans to travel and visit friends in Central America, probably returning home in December.
