GINKO BILOBA

Ginko Biloba is an herb that is supposed to help your memory..... my darling children used to tell people that "mom bought some Ginko Biloba but she forgot where she put it"....ha ha ha aren't they cute........anyway.......what was I saying? Oh yeah - I think we should all stock up. This has been my favorite remark so far, made by Anna Caravello Stebbins when asked a question: "Oh no...I have no recollection. I am looking forward to the reunion so someone can tell me what I did for four years!"

Send me your memories - if you have any.

NAME THESE LEGS

"Has anyone seen my pompoms? In anticipation of our reunion, I thought that I would try doing a cheer. Crusaders we are…Crusaders we are… I know the reason I pulled something in my leg is that I did not have my pompoms! I mean what else could it be? "

PROMISES, PROMISES



We all meant to " keep in touch". But there was college - then careers and marriages and babies - and not always in that order. Then those babies had school and college ....and now are having weddings and babies. Life is busy ! But finally, we are at the point where we are beginning to see the light at the end of the tunnel .... and for once it's not a locomotive heading straight at us.


There is such a wonderful comfort in "history" ...so let's come together to celebrate our history and our survival !! We won't question each others absence in our lives - just be thankful for this second chance. Hope to see you next summer !

WHO ARE THESE KIDS ?


Yes - I confess I STOLE this photo from the yearbook office. You can even see where I folded it in half and probably put under my sweater. Hey ! I worked hard on this yearbook - I earned it. What are you gonna do to me Gregg....take away my birthday? Look at that Neal - always a rebel....and excuse me, Steve, are you wearing gloves? Whatever - I am looking for photos - so any of you that have some to share - you can email them to me or send them to me ( and I will return them). Let's have some fun with this.

FINALLY

Well !! Who knew this would take so long - everyplace was either booked or over- priced - or over- rated ..... but after a couple of false starts , it's finally done !!
So save the date:

EHS 1969 Class Reunion
July 31st
Adler's Pub and Grill
Watt's Road

The restaurant will close for our party so we will have the whole place to ourselves. Also will plan an informal gathering for Friday and golf for Saturday. Mass for those inclined on Sunday followed by a picnic.

We will need help and will be sending a "Save the Date" card

Spread the word and stay turned.
