Cheryl Pitkin

Since we have another reunion coming up, I thought I better update this page.  Chuck retired in January 2007 and we have been traveling since then.  Spent several months initially driving around the U.S. and having a great time reconnecting. 

Our son, Ty, finished his 6 year term in the Air Force and moved to Moscow to go back to school at the Univ. Soooo, he is living in our Moscow house with his wife and two very small children (ages 3 and 1. Needless to say, we now divide our time between there and our ski house (work in progress) at Schweitzer. It's quieter!! Our oldest son, frank and his wife are still in Spokane and our daughter still at Ft. Lewis with her husband and two sons. Our youngest son, Ravi, will be enlisting in the military very soon.

Aside from the reunion this summer, we hope to see Ravi graduate from boot camp, host a Pitkin family reunion at the ski house and take my brother, Gannett, on a two week trip to southern Germany. It will be a year to look forward too. I'd include a more recent photo but haven't got one that looks any better. :)

Thanks to Bill Sever for his enduring efforts to keep us all together, and to the Reunion Committee for their help in organizing us.  We look forward to seeing you all in June.

Kids:  Left to Right... Ty Patrick Hatch (age 21) AirForce Shannon Lea Wells (age 29) Married (2 boys, ages 7 and 3) J. Franklin Martz (age 31) Married - working for Group Health in Seattle Charles Ravi Hatch (age 19) Student at NIC

I am living in Moscow, Idaho - married to Charles Hatch who is currently vice-president of research at the University.  We have four children, including a son who is stationed in Germany with the Air Force and a daughter who is married to a sgt. in the Army and also stationed in Germany.  I see a trip to Europe in my future this year!

I worked for the University until Chuck and I were married in l983.  We lived in India and Pakistan for 9 years, returning to the states for the last time in l994 - where, I might add, I intend to stay. :)  I am a homemaker and enjoying the newfound freedom of kids who are on their own or in College.  Life has been an adventure but, now that the kids are more independent, we hope for retirement in a couple years and a chance to travel for fun.

I look forward to seeing you all again this summer.
