I
                                              feel like the stars aligned for me in September 1979 when I
                                              arrived at Queen’s.

                                              On my fi rst day of Frosh Week, I didn’t know anyone in my
                                            Commerce frosh group, but I struck up a conversation with a
                                            friendly looking girl named Terri and we agreed to meet in the
                                            Vic Hall lobby to go for dinner at the Leonard Hall cafeteria. She
                                            brought along her high school friend Katarina and I brought along
                                            my roommate and high school pal Charmaine.  And that was the
                                            beginning of a 41 year friendship.

                                            Terri and I ended up having a lot in common besides being in
                                                                 Commerce ’83 together: we both love “I Love

                                                                 years ago), travel, and our parents got married

                                                                  fated to be friends!
