Bob and Kay
Bob is a Jersey boy at heart, an Irish lad, an avid skier to this day, and you’d better like his Giants! (and maybe a little scotch?) He was a mortgage broker for his career, retired to Vermont and now they live in Hanover, New Hampshire where he has put down the paddle tennis racquet and picked up the Wii tennis controller.
Kay (aka Koppie) hails from Rockland County, NY, her Dutch heritage traces all the way back to original settlers in NY on the De Halve Mein. She worked in advertising in NYC in the early 60s, think Mad Men, and can still type a frightening number of words a minute. Kay has found herself a technology maven, with her iPhone, MacBook and Wii fit. (She’s better than she thinks she is!)
They have been devoted volunteers for many local NH organizations, most notedly the Upper Valley Hostel. President, nominating committee, treasurer (I think more than once): they like keeping busy, being involved with the community, and giving back as well.
They have a summer home on Lake George, NY (where this photo was taken) and spend many a peaceful, yet hard working month there. They have been married for 47 years this September.
They are definitely the best parents of all time – every one of my friends says so! (and I heartily agree).
