Cathy Pfeiffer Moore... October 7, 2009 6:18 PM
My name is Cathy Pfeiffer Moore; I was born in Managua in 1956, and moved away from there in 1974, after the earthquake (but before the revolution). You might remember my aunt, Ginny (Virginia) Farr McCrea. Most of you all on this blog are a little older than me. I went to ANS for a few years, interspersed with being home-schooled for awhile (we lived on a farm across the lake from Managua), and also going to El Teresiano. I emailed my aunt the link to this page. She was amazed to hear about it! This whole blog turned up as a result of my searching for Arturo Molieri, whom Tootsie mentioned in this post. He was one of my first (much older!) boyfriends in Nicaragua! Do you have any idea of where/how he is?

Cathy, contact me at bnewlin@austin.rr.com with your email address and I'll hook you up with the others who have been following this blog. You'll have better luck contacting them directly instead of waiting to see if they respond to your comment left on the blog. Great to hear from someone "younger" LOL.

ReplyDeleteThanks for this, Bruce. I'll email you right now. Also, I need to correct a date in my post; I said that we left Nicaragua in 1978, when it was actually 1974. Sorry!
ReplyDeleteHi, I'm Pam Meserve Shaw. I lived in Nic. for about 11 great years. The 1st time was from 1966 to 1969,my Dad, Ed Meserve was with the Mil Group. We went back right after the earthquake and I graduate from ANS in 1974. My parents left in '78. I married and lived in Managua from '78 until the revolution.
ReplyDeleteFor the record, some of my best memories are of spending time at Cathy's cotton farm. It was like being in the old West! We would spend all day on horseback....good times!
ReplyDeleteThe Shaw's lived in Nicaragua during the mid-60's. Tom was a good friend. We rode horses, climbed trees, played pool at the pool hall at Monte Tabor. 30 years later we re-connected on the ANS website. We've been married for 5 years. Life is good!

Hi Cathy,
ReplyDeleteI'm David Fisch and lived in Managua from 67 to 76....I knew Arturo ...he was a good friend of my father and he stayed in contact with him. Unfortunately Arturo passed away few years ago after a long battle with cancer.
Hi, David,
ReplyDeleteI'm guessing you're Susan's brother. I haven't checked this board in a few months. Thanks for sharing the information about Arturo. I'm so sorry to hear this. So, he was a friend of your father's; maybe I really didn't realize just how much older than me he was :-)! Again, thanks for posting
He was much younger than my Dad but probably a bit older than you! Susie (yes, she's my sister) could give you more information.
ReplyDeleteIs there anyone who could provide me a picture of Arturo from before he died? It would really mean a lot to me. I don't remember exactly which email addy I subscribed with, but my current one is cathymoore56@gmail.com. Thank in advance!
