Linda (Chrisp) Knight wrote in 2018: Joyce (Mcllmoil) Norville and I
reconnected at the 50th reunion and then traveled to Thailand together this
January. Amazing experience!!
See five pictures from their trip. A brief bio from 2011: I graduated from UC Berkeley and went on to get my Elementary Teaching Credential at Cal State Hayward. I retired in June of 2011 from Brentwood Union School District after 30+ years of teaching. The last 20 were in Middle school and 13 in Special Education. I am looking forward to this new phase in my life and the possibilities there are in life without a 5:30 am alarm! My daughter is in Concord and my son is at Lake Berryessa. He is head chef at the Crossroads restaurant. My youngest grandson has just turned 3 and I am looking forward to being able to spend more time with him. I live in Concord. My hobbies include quilting, gardening, reading and traveling. |

Linda writes, in 2015: I recently published Promises for Dynamic Living, a Christian

a new feature called "Food for Thoughts" a couple of times each week. Hear an interview with Linda by Rick Tocquigny, a radio personality in New York on Blog Talk Radio. |

Linda Foster-Collins: I'm no longer a size 4. but, I can still bend over
to paint my toe nails bright red. I've been married once and divorced over 30 years.
One adult son who lives in Santa Barbara. I now live happily with a neutered cat.
I've worked for many years in hi-tech sales. I left a small valley town in order
to be around a more diversified world. I truly found it. One day I hope to write
the story of my war widowed friend who lives in Afghanistan. I never would have
thought I would be best friends to a family threatened by a war lord, a daughter
who is an activist who had to defect and a kidnapped son. Like everyone my life
has had a lot of chapters. I'm happy to say I'm enjoying these last ones the
most. I would love to hear from my friends of the past. Linda sent us an update, with two pictures, in 2013. [And the webmaster lost them until 2015.] |

Linnea (Cowart) Pearce -
I go by "Linn" these days.
After high school and a year or two at DVC, I attended nursing school and
law school, but each was interrupted by life circumstances. I later attended
UC Irvine's extension program, receiving my Paralegal Certificate in 1984.
I've worked in the legal field ever since. In 2009, I became the Contracts
Administrator / Senior Paralegal for a rapidly growing worldwide medical
device company in Orange County, California. Our products are used to treat
brain aneurysms.
I married in 1969, had 2 children, a girl and a boy, and divorced in 1979. I remarried in 1980 and divorced again in 1990. After raising my own 2 children, I also helped raise my grandson who graduated from high school in 2016. Ive traveled to parts of Europe, Canada, Mexico, and most of the U.S. including Alaska and Hawaii. I now seem to prefer my own backyard, unless travelling for work. If I ever retire, I may hit the road for pleasure once again. I love birds, animals, gardens, my family, my friends, mysteries, cars, and jigsaw puzzles, not in that particular order. I don't love dieting, but no longer have a choice in the matter. Where is the metabolism of my youth when I really need it? I have lived in Mission Viejo, California since 1994 and can be reached at |
