A Reunion Greeting From Esther Holloway! 

Hello from Esther Williams Holloway
 to my Classmates
Neshaminy High School, Class of 1963

I’m hoping that the celebration of the fiftieth anniversary of our graduation is a wonderful experience.  I’ll be thinking of all of you and of the years we shared in high school.  Enjoy every minute of a very special milestone.

My life is happy, healthy, and delightfully busy.  Since the death of my husband Jack in 2005, I’ve rebuilt a solid life that includes loving friends and family.  I am still enchanted with the desert southwest, and I feel very lucky to have been transported here.  My daily routines start with a walk in the stunningly beautiful Sabino Canyon, and they often end with a pool workout at Canyon Ranch where my home is located.  My interests still focus on architecture, good food, great wines, healthy living, and dear friends.  Recently I committed to tapping whatever creative spirit may reside within me.  I’ve taken up a serious, if unproductive, commitment to ceramics.  If ever I make anything worthy of saving, trust that I’ll get skywriters to spread the word across the land.  Don’t hold your breath.

Esther Williams Holloway
