Patricia (Patty) McGraw Class of '76 mcgrawpd2014@gmail.com
Biography / Memorable Life Experiences: After somewhat unexpectedly spending 26 years in Charlottesville, Virginia, I moved back to Colorado in October, 2014 - in the process deciding that T. S. Eliot was right, and that "...the end of all our exploring/ Will be to arrive where we started/ And know the place for the first time." Though, of course, he also points out that "to make an end is to make a beginning..." Bottom line, and just as I was forty years ago, I am pretty much clueless as to what will happen next - the only difference being, this time I know it, and am (mostly) okay with it. All the best to all of you -
