It has taken four long years, but we have finally come full circle.
Leo Lau 劉偉鏗 has once again invited members of the Raimondi College Class of 1969 and their spouses to a dinner party at his beautiful house in Toronto. We gathered on Aug. 12, 2023. It’s a remarkable feat of camaraderie at any age, but especially so for longtime classmates like us who could once again reminisce about the good old days.
The last time we gathered at Leo’s was in the summer of 2019 – before anyone had heard the name COVID-19, before pandemic lockdowns kept people apart month after month.
Social-distancing rules have eased this past year. Most people have resumed their normal life. They are going out again, travelling abroad again, and holding parties again.
It was gratifying for us to receive this invitation from Leo:
