Although I have been inactive for the past 15 years, I was an active member of NFF in the US in the 1980s and early 1990s. I attended most of NFF gatherings in Pennsylvania when Lewis Benson was still alive. I am very interested in George Fox's message and have done a small amount of traveling to share Fox's message. My most memorable travel was to YM in Germany in 1989. I joined Ursula and Arthur Windsor at that yearly meeting and led a seminar on George Fox's message prior to the beginning of the sessions. I was very grateful for Ursula's help during the question and answer period as many of the questions were in German and my German was not up to that.
When NFF re-published the 8 volume set of Fox's Works, they were stored in our basement and we took responsibility of sending them to folks who ordered them.
I am currently teaching computer science at Winthrop University but plan on retiring in a few years. I should then have more time to devote to the study of Fox's writings and to support of the work of NFF. Blayne and I are members of Davidson Friends Meeting (Davidson, NC) which is a member of North Carolina Yearly Meeting Conservative.
I have been wondering if you-all were still raising sheep. It is good to touch base again with you and learn what has been happening. Must run now. Ellis
Anne, I realize this is early, but since you are celebrating early, I will offer my early congratulations of 50 years of marriage. I hope your and Blayne's trip to Wales and 1652 country goes well.
