Oprah in New York
After many months of entering an on-line 'lottery draw' for tickets to an Oprah Winfrey Show, the goal was finally realized and Pam Zollner along with 3 friends went to New York City to attend an Oprah show taping. Although the show is usually taped in Chicago, this was a special episode at Radio City Music Hall in NYC to celebrate the 10th Anniversary of 'O' Magazine. Pam was among 5000 audience members who were able to see guests Dr. Phil, Dr. Oz, Suze Orman, Nate Berkus, and several others, as well as the singing performance by Christina Aguilera. The episode was taped and aired on Fri. May 7th.
Pam also participated in the "Live Your Best Life" Oprah Charity Walk on Sunday from the NY Hudson River to Times Square where Oprah, Gail King, Jennifer Hudson, Mary J. Blige and more spoke/sang to the large crowd. It was a once-in-a-lifetime experience and a great thrill & opportunity to see the iconic Oprah Winfrey in person (albeit at a distance!).
Picking up the tickets--finally I have them in my hand!

Graduation Announcement--Sharon Roth
On 12 June 2009, Sharon Roth graduated from the University of Maastricht, The Netherlands with an International Executive Masters of Business Administration designation. The EMBA designation was presented to Sharon by the Director of Academics from the University of Maastricht. Sharon's graduating class colleagues included Danish, American, Dutch, Mexican, Puerto Rican, German and Belgian nationalities.
The most special and memorable moment was the fact that family members such as Sharon's husband Scott Godsoe, along with her older brother Laverne Roth and her sister-in-law, Rita had just happened to plan on being on a European vacation at the same time were able to share and witness the momentous event. In traditional European style, Sharon and Scott hosted various celebrations with their old close friends from Sittard, The Netherlands area and with their new friends, work colleagues and neighbours in Gries, Germany area.
Shortly after the celebrations, Sharon and Scott returned to Canada with Laverne and Rita to enjoy a short vacation time with family in Medicine Hat, their granddaughter's(Sharon and Scott's) graduation in Quesnel, B.C., and a time-out with the whole Godsoe clan in Sun Peaks, B.C. Scott and Sharon are fully embedded within the German and international business culture in the Gries (not Greece) area in Germany in which they thoroughly enjoy their ongoing European vacation. Sharon Roth is the daughter of Esther Roth (nee Gomke).
