The Maynard-Reid's 2010 Annual Letter

At the beginning of June Vie attended a Travel Agents’ convention in Vancouver, Canada. Our dear friend, Sharon (Angel) Shay was so kind to house her. While she was there, Pedrito was in North Dakota performing the wedding of Scott and Tenielle (who were on the Thailand trip last summer). Vie and Pedrito met up in Seattle and celebrated her’s and Pedrito II’s mother-in-law’s birthdays, Father’s day, and Pedrito’s birthday, at Pedrito II, Margaret, and the grandkids’ (Jasmine and Leo) home. Then we took the ferry to Orcas Island (in the San Juans) to represent WWU at the Orcas Christian School graduation. T wedding anniversary Caribbean cruise. It was a family celebration with our son and his family, Vie’s sister Janice, and our adopted family member, Lorraine. Before sailing out of Puerto Rico, we spent a couple days revisiting our old haunts in PR, especially Antillian University. Then on to the islands of St. Thomas, Dominica, Barbad We were only home for a few hours before Pedrito had to catch the flight to Thailand for his annual University Mission Trip with 6 of his students. Again we conducted English Camps, helped the disabled farmer on the farm, assisted with a health clinic (including treating a leprosy victim), and spent time at an orphanage. But the trip also involved cultural outings like visiting the rain forest, riding elephants, and spending quality time up close and personal with tigers at the Buddhist Tiger Temp The sad part of the Thailand trip was that just as he arrived, Vie’s mother died in Jamaica after an extended illness. Pedrito was the only adult on the trip so he could not leave. But Vie and all her siblings, as well as both our children, were able to attend the funeral. Our good friend Joan Francis came down for the occasion. Mama was just short of her 88 ence at Seattle University. He continues to work as a Software Engineer at Microsoft. We wish if Natasha and family were closer.
