Gentlemen:
In April of 2003, John spent a lot of time trying to track down Ron Davidson in hopes that he would be able to join the RA reunion.  He was terribly disappointed that he did not hear back from him.  Finally, he sent a letter to the Dept. of State and they promised to forward it to the address they had (they do not give out addresses, of course).  Just this week, a letter came from Switzerland.  It was from the Executor of Mr. Davidson's estate.  Apparently, Mr. Davidson died on August 4, 2002 in Meyrin, near Geneva.  I thought you all would like to have this information.

I hope this finds you all well and enjoying good health and happiness in this New Year.  The girls and I are fine.  Life goes on, just not the same without my dear John.  I begin a new position this week at the Catholic Information Center in DC, will work about 20 hrs. a week, have purchased a much needed new car and hope to get the house on the market within 6 weeks or so--please wish me good luck.  Ramsey and Shauna are planning another visit in early March to help me out with all that needs to be done around here.  I'm truly blessed with these wonderful 4 daughters in my life.

Please take care of yourselves and keep in touch.  God bless you all...
Fondly,
Sharon O'Donnell
