Greetings everyone!
Summer is behind us and we look forward to the fall and the great holidays the months ahead will bring us. Our September update offers up several fun versions of our "Original Cast Members" along with some visits back to one of our junior highs. A retro view back when our railroad was ground level, a visit from a television personality during our childhood and a classmate profile of yet another very creative and talented friend of ours.
The past month has seen our home state suffer from mother nature and the ten year anniversary of 9-11 comes all too close to home for many of us. Also, since we last visited I am sorry to say we have lost a classmate of ours, William Terefenko, age 58 and our music teacher Mrs. Musacchia passed last week at the age of 95.
Several of you were quite good in guessing Karen Kiraly as our mystery classmate. September also marks the one year anniversary of our 40th reunion. Hard to believe how fast the year has flown by. Pat Navalany is responsible for this month's music selections, thanks Pat.
This past year also has been a complete kick in the pants joy to work on and deliver these monthly blog updates. I'm sorry to share that given a crunch on my time it has been increasingly more difficult to get the blog out to all of you. From the outset our goal was to springboard from the great reunion and keep the WHS enthusiasm going strong. We are proud of the project we created and produced each month and thank the many of you that have taken the time to write with your appreciation for our efforts. At this point I am sorry but the WHS Blog will be sidelined for the foreseeable future. Hopefully down the road time will permit us to re-enter your inbox. Cindy, Diane and Chris are true sweethearts and I can't begin to thank them for everything they have done for your blog. Whenever there is a group organized to tackle the next reunion you would be wise to ask for these three ladies' assistance...they are and have been priceless to me...thank you. Finally...I say thank you to all of you that have agreed to allow us to profile you and your lives, this zany project of ours graced me with so many new friends as a result. Over seven thousand Internet visits to our blog is not bad I'd say! It has been a fun ride and I wish you all nothing but good in your life and I hope the world is kind to all of you.
Once again Cindy, Diane and Chris....thank you.
Ciao
Thanks Rich, Cindy, Diane and Chris for a wonderful blog, and all your reunion ideas and support for Class of 71!
