Friends of Peppy

Betty Clemmer attended Mt. Holyoke with Peppy. She and her husband, Dan, are teachers in Mwanza as part of the Teachers for East Africa Program. The Clemmers welcomed the Kinseys into their home and introduced them to me. During the weekend before Peppy died, the Clemmers stayed with the Kinseys in Maswa. The Clemmers saw a happily married couple. Aileen Dower and her husband, Hal, were in the same training group with Peppy and Bill. Although the Dowers are stationed on the other side of Mwanza, Peppy and Aileen often met for lunch in Mwanza, and Peppy sought out Aileen’s marriage experience to understand her own marriage problems.
