The 2006 Cambridge Reunion
Back to the Reunions Page Here
The 2006 reunion was held in the Arundel Hotel, Cambridge, and
a good time was had by all in spite of the sudden and untimely death of Fred
Gooch a little over a week prior to the reunion. We missed Fred and Annie and
remembered them both fondly at the gala dinner. We also remembered Tom Bateman
who died earlier in the year and, of course, our former President, Alan Hyde,
who is in good physical health but
is sadly in a home suffering from Alzheimer's. We were delighted to have Mike & Zena Ware with us on one of their rare visits from their home in Canada.
Following the reunion, Zena and Mike set off on an exotic cruise or two in an
effort to spend their children's inheritance before returning to Canada. The weather
for the reunion was warm and pleasant
and most members spent some time at the IWM Duxford and then in Cambridge city
and its fine shops, as well as on the city's tour buses and the Cam river punts.
We remembered absent friends and presented Jean McColl with an unusual piece of
glassware and Mac with a bottle by way of thanking them for all their hard work
in making the
2006 reunion such a success
