Patrick Zahnd - 1969-70 Dear friends,
What a surprise for me to see your website and what a real joy!
I was OHS french AFS student in 1969-70 and was staying with
Harvey Gittler's family at that time at 28 Woodhaven Drive. Now,
Harvey is living next to you [the high school] in Kendal and I have been visiting him and
stay in close touch with him too. In fact, I visited OHS in May 2000
and was given the opportunity to say a few words to young students in
the library, speaking like a veteran maybe.

I now live in Budapest, Hungary, Central Europe. I head a
diplomatic mission representing the International Committee of the
Red Cross (ICRC) for 11 countries of Central Europe. I have spent my
life all over the world but mostly in Africa, in war zones and
developing countries. But also in New York, where I represented my
organization as observer to the UN.
I would be very happy if you could put my E-Mail address on your
website, on the AFS page so that, maybe some old friends could send me
news.
Hope to have news from you soon. Keep your high
spirit and energy to keep this site going on and active. It is
great.
Warm regards,
Patrick Zahnd
AFS '70
