Thank you, Kate, for the wonderful Thanksgiving Dinner my Earlham roommate and I had at your house in ~1964. Olen had the first color TV I ever saw.

I have fond memories of Kate and her family from my years at Earlham in the mid-60's. My roommate and I had a wonderful Thanksgiving dinner at their farm house - the table was loaded with dishes of food. Olen had the first color TV I had ever seen, and he and the girls were building a log cabin.
Kate and Olen came to Earlham a few yrs ago to see me get an alumni award, and we lunched together.
Warm wishes to you all,
Helen Greenwood Hansma
