President’s Message
Celebrating my mother-in-law’s 80th birthday in Antigua, Guatemala, was a perfectly natural choice for our family. The Newton story began in Guatemala City where my in-laws met at the Engel Apartments while both were launching their careers; she a biology teacher and he a Coca-Cola executive.

President’s Message – November 2018
