Like the rest of you I cannot believe that fifty years have passed! Unlike many of you, I have not kept in touch very well with my old high school friends. Mea Culpa! Am truly looking forward to seeing people who played such a role during the formative years. Only 6 weeks left....
Cheers and felicitations to the organizing committee and Neal! I am so impressed with your ability to find former classmates, organize the Party, and appropriately memorialize those who have sadly passed. Great work and many thanks to all !!
I kind of left White Plains behind when I began my residency and my folks took off for Florida. Then, Uncle Sam bestowed upon my hubby, a 2-year trip to Fort Benjamin Harrison and the land of Hoosiers. Eli Lilly put some golden handcuffs on me and we are still adopted Hoosiers (Indiana). Four years ago we bought a place on Candlewood Lake in Connecticut as a family retreat for our kids who were City bound and now I fly to White Plains airport several times a month. Why the Westchester Mall is but a mere 45 minutes from my door!
Please forgive me if I do not remember you immediately. While my recent memory is quite intact, my long term memory for people and some events seems to have been replaced by all that "stuff" I have to learn. Hopefully, others will also suffer not too much from mild "oldtimers" as well.
Here are a couple of more recent pics of me, a bit less dorky-looking that in high school. In the corner is my 2008 passport picture pre chemo and the rest is what you can expect to see in a few weeks (minus the twins and hubby, Neil).
Happy end of summer to all. Be safe and see ya in WP!
