As of September 1, Susan Burlison ’70 and her husabnd, Lee, became residents of Plzeň in the Czech Republic. Their reason for moving 6,000 miles? Three adorable grand children – Ella, William & Marie. They love their new flat. It’s big, sunny and a half block from Republic Square where there are many exciting events. If you are going to be in the Czech Republic, let them know. They love visitors and sightseeing.
