Thomases in India

Goa warmth continues

This morning we visited James and Willi Barton's house, here in the beach town -- Benaulim -- where most Woodstock staff stay in Goa. The Bartons have lived in India off and on since 1969, when they taught in Bombay along with our dear friend Susheel's mother. In 1977 they moved to Woodstock for a dozen years; they are thus our first Woodstock connection. And they have obviously touched many lives, both during their time in Bombay, and in Woodstock, and now here in Goa. The group photo shows many of our colleagues and friends from Mussoorie, with the Bartons on the bottom step.

  • wow, amazing to see pictures of Dr. and Mrs. Barton! "Frau" Barton was my German teacher for the year I was at Woodstock:) Glad to hear they're soaking up the sun in Goa!
