Message:Hi everyone

I returned to Scotland after 19 years in Hong Kong. I left teaching and started up my own business. Would love to hear from anyone ...

I have really fond memories of my time in Japan. Met up online (Facebook etc) with a few students but would love to reconnect with some of the faculty. Heard Stelarc on the radio recently talking about his third ear!

Message:Dear Faculty, please forward this message to anybody who may inquire about me:

Hey, everyone!

If anybody sees this message and wanted to get hold of me, PLEA~~SE contact me through the above E-MAIL ONLY! No phone calls to known numbers you find/get from somewhere or someone! Even if I've given you contact #s in the past, THAT'S NOT MY AUTHORIZATION TO GIVING OUT MY CONTACT NUMBERS TO OTHERS WITHOUT MY CONSENT.

I just got a strange creepy message from someone at one of my former tel numbers, talked to my friend claiming to be my high school friend from Japan and she was asking questions about me, where to reach me, how and what am I doing now, etc. Even claimed she knew my mom. But I don't even recognize that person's name!

I already have problem with someone STALKING me, so I keep my information confidential for my safety. If anybody tries to purposefully break my confidentiality, I will contact the Secretary of State about this. THIS IS NO JOKE, I AM SERIOUS!

Message:Hello everyone. I was happy to find this site and leave a message. Right now I am in the process of trying to plan a trip to the Bernards Retirement Party in June. Although it has been almost almost 30 yera ago since I left Japan, it really seems like only yesterday because I have such fond and wonderful memories of my time at YIS.

I am living presently in Nemarket, Ontario. I am married to Ed (a Civil Engineer) and we have two daughers - Kayla (16 1/2) and Jenny (15 1/2). Both girls are a great joy. The oldest leans towards writing, theatre and singing...she recently was narrowed down to 100 from 5505 hopefuls in the Toronto stop of Canadian Idol. Kayla hopes to go on to University to take writing. Jenny enjoys shopping! She tends to be more athletic - cross country and downhill skiing being her strengths.

Both brothers Paul and Scott, live and work in Houston. Paul has a lovely family with 2 adorable children, and Scott is the eligible bachelor. Paul owns a successful businessm and Scott is successful in his line of work - both are Mechanical Engineers, graduating from Texas A & M.
As for me, I work with the elderly primarily, and do some private investigation on the side. But first, and foremost, I am a mom....driving here and there.

I would love to hear from those who remember me! I am in contact with a number of you already...and it is so nice to continue this friendship, albiet via internet most of the time.

If anyone is in the Toronto area, call.....!!! Newmarket is a hop, skip and a jump from Toronto! My number is
(905) 953-1986......address 905 Norsan Court, Newmarket, Ontario L3X 1L1 Canada.

Until then, Take Care, Love Kathy

E-mail address: dchappell@mail.tstboces.org
Message:I just discovered this site and have thoroughly enjoyed perusing through messages from so many students I remember from the past.

My family and I are living on the western shore of Cayuga Lake, about 30 minutes north of Ithaca and in the heart of the Finger Lakes in central New York. We enjoy all that the area has to offer: sailing, swimming, golf, wineries, good restaurants, college events, etc.

I work as a school superintendent for a regional supervisory district which consists of nine component school districts. It's wonderfully challenging work, but I must confess I miss the classroom.

Would love to hear from former students or colleagues!

Be well!

Message:Hey there! I am trying to do many things with my website. Kinda lateral in a way. One thing is to record my memories of Yokohama and Japan, so take a look as I post it up. If you remember differently e-mail me. If I omit events also do the same. YIS was one of the high points in my life; it was an experience worth recording for all involved in education. Wonderful. Some day I shall return (for an afternoon) hopefully. I wrote many songs there, and sang them in the Mission to Seamen while learning to play snooker and teching my Japanese friends to play darts.
