We were happy to have all three of our children and our 2 grandaughters in attendance. Theresa and her daughter Taylor come from Colorado, Jon and his wife Nancie came from Oregon and Cheryl and Savannah live close by in Mississippi.

Aloha from Peter and Susan Nilsen

Susan and I have been married for just over 43 years and have two children. Our daughter Michelle will be 37 next month. She is an interior designer and uses the professional name of Coco. Our son Christopher is 28 and is a mergers and acquisitions tax attorney.

I graduated from Loyola of Los Angeles in engineering and went on to UCLA for a graduate degree. My career was spent in the aerospace/defense industry working primarily in space and satellite programs. I retired in September 2006 from Northrop Grumman's Space and Technology division that was formerly TRW where I had managed satellite design and technology development projects.

Upon retirement in 2006 we moved from Palos Verdes to Princeville, Kauai where we had bought a house a few years earlier. I am very active in outrigger canoe racing on Kauai. In 2008 my over 60 years old mens 6 man outrigger canoe won the Kauai Island championship and went on to compete in the State championship in Honolulu (photo attached -I'm on the far left with the hat and sunglasses on). Prior to retirement, Susan and I were active sailors and skiers. We enjoy swimming at our many beautiful beaches all year round and volunteer at the Kilauea Point National Wild Life Refuge.

We hope that any classmates who visit Kauai will stop in to see us.

Aloha,
Peter
