Photograph of Phyllis and Ken Emery

File contains photograph of Phyllis and Ken Emery, sent as a “Just Married” Christmas Card. Inscribed on reverse is: “Dear Elisabeth: Some months after Kay died I met a colleague’s mother who had lost her husband of 45 years also to cancer. We have many similar interests and attitudes so we married 8 months ago to begin our second chance. I continue writing about the ocean: a big book about “The Geology of the Atlantic Ocean” in late 1984, and since then a lot of work in tide-gauge-record indicators of plate tectonics. Phyllis has brushed up on concert piano and organ & expects to do the same for her painting. Most likely you are more than busy as usual with your attempts to transfer technology. Latin Americans, tho, seem to be allergic to science. Best wishes, Phyllis & Ken”
