    My brother, Eddie Elardo's computer is down, so he asked me to respond for him. Patsy, thanks for the news on Nat (My brother had two wives himself). Too bad about Billy; he was always such a character. I gave Eddie the email addresses people left him; hopefully, he'll be back on line soon. He says hello to Janet, Patty N. and Kayak Bob.

    I remember Jerome HOward very well; he was in my class and always threw snowballs at me. His brother, Charlie, was a great dancer and we all used to gather around when he did the lindy.

    Hey, Kayak Bob - do you remember dancing in your basement and in Rita Garbato's basement. Of course, this is before we all started to like heavy metal and rock.

    Cousin Allen La Greca! My love to you and Phyllis! See you at the reunion.

    Ann Marie Walton - I found Joe Flynn he's in Florida. He will get back to me about coming to NY for the reunion and sends all the best to you. I told him to tell his sister and brothers about this site. This is Joe Flynn who used to live over Regina's bakery right?

    Sally Calciano- Say 'HI' Annie! Are you coming to the reunion? Hope to see you!

    Hi Terry -
    I am finally home. I just sent you an email. It's so good to be back
    home. Flight was very delayed and rocky landing at Newark. To
    make matters worse, I had a seat in front of my gynecologist who
    was on the same flight... And I have to see him next week. :)
    Feeling tired and grouchy.... got to go hug my "babies" and I will feel better. Missed you too!!! Talk to you tomorrow.

    Love,
    Franny xxx

    RALPHIE,

    I saw you on FaceBook. Hey, listen to this. I saw a "John Gagliardi" on Facebook and thought is was Rocco's brother. So I'm having a conversation with him and it turns out it's another John Gagliardi who also lived in our neighborhood. Am I the only one who did not know that two Johnny Gagliardi's lived in Brooklyn?

    Janet Horan - you asked Barbra Elardo Gil what about Billy Fox. I replied to Eddie Elardo when he asked about Fox, Nat, & Elliot.
    Told my brother Elliot about Eddie asking for him. Elliot saw Timmy Fox at the labor day parade & Timmy said Billy had a stroke. Confined to house right now. Let me know if you read this post Janie.

    Also incase I messed up on F.Book I laughed so hard about your comment on F.Bk. - you leaving me behind (back then ) long hair "little" & now Im an adult , I see the sence of humor runs in your family :D
    :wink: Carol the adult

    Hello, GEORGETTE HEGARTY MAGNAVITA

    your name 1st popped up when Dan Lovaglio ( my brother n law ) read a bunch of names off the site to see do i know any. Well I only know one Georgette so I thought it might be you. Then Janet Horan contacted me (that was wild ) and we spoke and at some point you came up. I asked Jan what was her last name she said Magnavita. I called Dan back and said yes it was you and for him to call Bobby Bianco to get word to you & Joann. I am Elliots sister Carol.
    Who ever said the world is a big place ? I cannot believe how far & how fast this moves. I mentioned to Terry Angelo 6 more months and she would be booking a wedding hall with the amount of people popping up.

    Guess what? Paul has to work until 4:00 p.m. on the day of the reunion. Hopefully, we'll still be there so he can come by for a little while.

    Love,
    Christina

    Hi, Carol. This forum is really something.
    My cousins, Barbara, Eddie and my sister Jo Ann have talked so much about all of you and the old neighborhood throughout the years that our kids are sick of listening to us.
    Tell Dan that I've been with Bobby and Jeanne for the past three days.
    Bobby is as crazy as ever.
    Hope all is well with you and yours, Carol.

    Thanks, Terry for making this happen.

    GEORGETTE BARBARA EDDIE

    I found somthing out that I could not remember for the life of me. Due to this site I have been explaining to some how as a little girl I remember help,caring, from some ladies. Joanie Red, Bella, Jeanie Aversano & a lady who was very pretty who would give me cookies & milk, thats all I can remember. Fast forward.... I tell my brother (Elliot ) Eddie Elardo
    mentioned you on this site. He said wowwwwwwww give Eddie regards.
    He says to me do you know where Eddie lived & he tells me and I screamed "thats the cookie lady !! " after all these yrs. the mystrey is solved (I think ) if anyone comes to the gathering & you have a photo of I guess the mom to Ed & Barb. she was beautiful.
