Sue Erskine Fretwell moved to N. Carolina last year to help with 2 little granddaughters, another chance to watch up close as babies grow into little kids and then into young adults. It's fascinating and they are all amazing. She had a family reunion including all the little and big cousins in Maine this summer which was totally heartwarming. She is being an attentive grandmother, nurturing window boxes of flowers, avoiding Covid, and watching birds at my window feeders, but also taking classes through OLLI . i She keeps in touch with several Moravian friends from her era, Enriched to have so many great memories of our Moravian days and life experiences since then!
