Nancy and Trish's brother Cliff arrived in Cairo two days ago for a visit. The Torrence family was here for four years in the 1960's, and now all three kids are back here in Maadi 37 years later. Cliff graduated high school from the school where Curtis is now going, and Trish graduated from AUC. Nancy was also at Curtis' school for grades 7-10. The villa in which the Torrences lived is still there, and we arranged to go visit it. It is owned by the same folks from which the Torrences rented, and those folks are living there now. They graciously allowed us to visit and see the house, and of course it was a rather moving experience for all the Torrence kids. And Curtis was able to see the house in which his mother, aunt, and uncle spent such happy years.
