From Damascus to Quechee

May 11, 2021 by Khalid Mamlouk 1 Comment
QLLA member Khalid Mamlouk with his wife, Christina, and their daughters Claire and Lily

Thousands of miles away and over a quarter century ago, my journey to the US started. Reflecting on that journey fills me with fond memories. After graduating from Damascus University in Syria with a Master’s in Pharmacy and Pharmaceutical Chemistry, I decided to follow my siblings’ footsteps and move to the US to pursue a postgraduate degree, and fulfill my dream of curing cancer, the disease that killed my father.

I was not sure when I left Damascus in November 1994 that my stay in the US would be permanent; and I could not have imagined my homeland would be devastated with an endless war and civil unrest.… Read More

Meet Your Neighbors: The Sanders – The Magic of Five Miles

February 26, 2018 by Molly O'Hara No Comments
Barry and Pat Sanders

Pat and Barry Sanders are often seen running along Quechee Main Street, in fact, they are known for it, at least by other Quechee residents.

Pat and Barry met running, so it’s only fitting that they are continuing the tradition. They were working at the same company where Pat was head of human resources. In fact, Pat was the first person Barry met at the company. She had organized a “lunch bunch” running group for employees and Barry joined. The rest, as they say, is history.

A love of sports
Barry says that running every day in the morning is a great way to find the time to connect as a couple, to just chat without interference and catch up on day-to-day business.… Read More

Meet Your Neighbor: The DeLaus Family

February 21, 2018 by adminQT No Comments
Mike, Michael, Daniel, Robert, and Susan

Mike DeLaus and Susan Feindt and their three sons Michael, Robert, and Daniel, live in Andover, Massachusetts. Sam and Janet Nork, also from Andover, introduced the DeLaus family to Quechee. Susan says they like being part of the Quechee community because of “the people” and the fact that is very family-oriented. “Everyone that we’ve met through the ski team have been great,” says Susan and adds, “We really like getting away from school, work, just relaxing. There is always something to do outdoors no matter what the season.” Noting that the scenery and surroundings are beautiful, Susan says, “We want to be in Quechee whenever we can.… Read More

Meet your Neighbor: The McDougalls

Meet the McDougalls

In 1979, while living in our home town of Lowell, MA, a friend invited Deb and I and, at that time, our three little boys — Rob, Peter, and Mike — to use his house in Quechee in the winter. We wound up having a great week and loved every aspect of the Quechee lifestyle.

From 1979 to 1982 we rented, and in 1986 we bought our home on Hard Road. In 1990, having been impacted by the recession, and with lots of college tuition on the horizon, we decided we needed to become a “one home family.” Despite having lots of professional advice about where the best career opportunities were, we chose Quechee, and have never had a moment of regret!… Read More
