At the Aug 29 Rotary Luncheon, senior members had the opportunity to greet former inbound exchange student Matesh. 
Matesh Kurkani was an inbound exchange student from India 37 years ago and was hosted by several Rotarian families.  He and his wife are both Rotarians.  He has come back several times to visit.  Don and Jean Sick took him to Niagara Falls and other places. 
 
When he went back to India, he got his MBA in Finance and started his own non-banking finance company.  He also owns a construction company that builds and sells condominiums in India.   
 
They have 2 daughters. His 24 yr old daughter is a lawyer and member of the bar in India. They are flying into Ottowa, where she is pursuing further studies.  Their youngest daughter won a scholarship at Wheaton College in MA, where they have visited. 
 
He has wonderful memories of his time in Tunkhannock and encouraged the current exchange students to make the most of their time here.
