I attended AIS only for one year (1967-1968), but I wish that I could have finished my high school career in New Delhi. Nevertheless, I have enjoyed, thoroughly, attending the last two reunions in Crystal City, talking with those who remembered me and meeting new friends.

For the last six and a half years I have been working with a trade group in Washington, DC which is active in health policy, and which, in the fall of 2007, cosponsored a series of forums featuring individual Presidential candidates discussing their vision for health reform and coverage for the uninsured.

I must express my profound gratitude to Cindy Jones Ondrak, who made it possible for me to re-establish contact and friendship with Richard Abston, my best friend in New Delhi, with whom I had lost contact and not communicated previously for about 35 years.

Namaste.

- Richard Coorsh (class of 1970)

P.S. attached is a photo from this fall of me and "a new friend."
