An autumn comment from
Fran Winans, wife of
Peter Wi-
nans
: “Peter is doing fairly well
here in Delray Beach. After sev-
eral heart attacks, an operation
to remove part of his foot, and
dozens of other problems due to
his diabetes, he is still with us.
He walks with a walker and sits
a lot, but he keeps up with the
news and still has a pretty active
mind. Thanks to John Lorenz,
we are kept current on SPS and
Peter’s friends. We had a great
time last year at lunch in Palm
Beach and hope we will repeat
next winter. Amazing to see old
friends so many years later!”

sent this update:
“I collaborated on a beautiful
book that will be available in
November (www.chesleypho-
tovoyage.com). I wrote all the
essays. Most of them are on
Southeast Asia and the Pacific,
based on many years working
as a news correspondent in
that theatre. The photographer,
Paul Chesley, who also lives in
Honolulu, is one of the greatest
and has done much work for
National Geographic
. Many
of the essays have a reflective
quality. I even got the School’s
name in twice, once in the Thai-
land essay amidst a reference to
the mysterious, vanished
Jim
Thompson ’24
, whom I knew!”

shared this up-
date: “
Mike Elliman
and I,
along with wives Sally and Judy,
met this past June on Blakely Is-
land, Puget Sound, a wilderness
where the Ellimans spend their
summers. Mike likes the peace
and quiet. Only way you can
get there is by private boat or
plane. Mike gaveme a one-hour
tour on an ATV, which covered
most of the island, population
about 100. This was followed
by a round of bocce, whichMike
won. No wonder, as I found out
later he owned the court. Cock-
tails overlooking the northern
Pacific Ocean, then elegant
dinner prepared by Sally made
for an evening we’ll remember.
Early next morning, a sumptu-
ous breakfast with a panoramic
view of the San Juan Islands,
which take up much of Puget
Sound. Later in the morning,
Mike and Sallymotored the boat
back to Anacortes, from where
Judy and I took a short drive
back to Seattle. What a country!”
