Josephine Williamson of Houston made an unexpected trip to Murray, Ky. She received news that her math college professor, Janet Hansen, was going to be in Murray for the weekend. They had not seen each other for 26 years. Hansen was helpful, supportive and encouraging in helping Williamson receive her college degree. They became friends, along with their daughters. After graduation, she and Bill moved to Houston and Hansen and her husband, Terry, moved to St. George, Utah. They kept in touch throughout the years sending cards. The ladies visited for several hours and reminisced about their time spent in Murray Hansen is still teaching college part time in St. George, Utah, and Williamson is a substitute teacher. Hansen is planning a trip to Ireland next spring and has invited Williamson to go with her. After their visit, Williamson went to Cadiz, which is an hour from Murray, to spend a couple of days with her family
