Dr. Jim Schmitz (EpSig 611), Richard Fuller (member of Parliament), Tom Larson (EpSig 612), and Kathy Larson |
My bride of 37 years and
I recently took a trip that began with a series of Bed & Breakfast stops as
we drove on the 'wrong' side of the road and the 'wrong' side of the
car touring the Irish coasts and countryside with an 'occasional' stop at
an Irish pub to sample the local fare. We concluded our
wonderful trip with several days in London.
Pledge
Bro, yes we were Pledges, Jim Schmitz, a fellow Bruin oarsman form
the Class of 1974 and now a cardiologist taking a year off to develop
new business skills at the reknowned
London School of Business, was our gracious host during our visit in
London.
Dr. Schmitz is the oldest member of his
class of approximately 60. He is working his tail off as gains new
knowledge competing with a classmates a generation younger than Ep
Sig 611. Jim provides some real life and sage experience to
his neophyte mates from around the globe. Graduation is late
2013. The next chapter in Jim's professional world is yet to be determined.
A highlight of our trip was a visit to
Parliament and a tour by Richard Fuller, MP (Member of Parliament).
During our tour, we observed the House of Commons (where Mr. Fuller is a
member) in session, visited the House of Lords and toured the Parliament
facility. Our visit was capped off with beverages on the Parliament
terrace overlooking the River Thames.
The individuals in the attached picture
are Dr. Jim Schmitz (Ep Sig 611), Richard Fuller (MP), Tom Larson (Ep Sig 612)
and Kathy Larson.
ZAX,

Order of Merit
If any of you other Old Bro's out there would like to share your stories about EpSig get-togethers (locally or globally, doesn't matter), send the OBN a note and a photo or two commemorating the occasion and I'll publish it for everyone to enjoy.
With summer vacations right around the corner, if not started already, I'm sure there are a few Old Bro's out there who might just run into each other somewhere, if so, share those experiences with the rest of the Old Bro Network.
Cheers,
MJH
