Brenda Cook ’75, ’81G was in touch via email from her home in San Rafael, CA, down the road from me. She has been on the West Coast since 2007, when she lived in Sacramento, working for Sacramento State. Brenda also worked for Dominican University of California and Stanford Medical. One of her sons is in North Carolina working on his Ph.D. at Duke and her other son is applying to medical school. We hope to get together once the pandemic is over. 
Maine Public Advocate Barry Hobbins retired in June. Barry practiced law in Saco and served 13 terms in the Maine legislature. He was appointed public advocate in 2017 by Maine Gov. Paul LePage ’75G, and represented the public’s interests before the Maine Public Utilities Commission. 
We have sad news of the passing of Max Dawson, retired Bath police chief, and Glenn Adams, retired AP reporter. Glenn and I worked together on the Maine Campus way back when. Our condolences to their families.
Steve and I have a new granddaughter, Enid, born to our youngest daughter, Susan, and her husband, James, in Leeds, UK. 
Please take a moment to let us know how you are coping these days.
