Bob
Richardson ’61 received an email on January 30, 2023 from Laura
Montaldo, daughter of Darwin Montaldo ’60, Crawford’s first Exchange
Student. Laura wanted to contact ASB President Ernie Griffin,
whose family hosted Darwin during his stay here. Bob put her in
touch with Ernie, and wondered if she had a copy of her Dad’s 1960
Centaur. Bob wondered if anyone had a 1960 Centaur that he could
send to Laura. Three Colts volunteered, but Pam Woodbury ’62 was
the first, and the yearbook was soon in the mail to Laura. Laura
responded with the photo above, and the following email:
Hi all! Hope you are doing well! First of all, thank you! I
am so grateful that I have reached out to Bob and so kindly he replied
to me with so much more than I expected. Now I know why my father
loved Crawford and all the friends he met there. I understand that
this is Pam's yearbook. I have no words to thank her. She even
took time of her own to label my dad's photos. Pam, you are an
incredible person. I would love to give you both a big hug! Abrazos desde Uruguay!!! (Hugs from Uruguay) -- Laura Montaldo
