Patsy,
Before I even say another word on this thread, I want to say that I was very happy to see you and I hope this won't be the last time. Please keep in touch. Also, excuse my being "elsewhere" mentally for a few moments. I put on someone else's name tag (Mongo) and I guess I had an "out of Bob Horan" temporary experience.
Bob Horan -
OK. Now Patsy, Terry, Millie, Carol and Elliott and all the other folks I was lucky enough to see tonight this is my second post-reunion post and I want to say that I was glad to have made it tonight.
Elliot: You are a great guy. I know you were back then......but you seem even nicer now. I remember what a nice man your father was - so no surprise.
to all of you: I really hope that we can get together again soon. -
Terry: You not only did a great job.......you looked great. Really dug the outfit too.
-
Karen Dritto: I know I said it at the reunion and I am sure you heard it from everyone but of all the pictures I had in my head of the way people looked "back then"......you win the prize for looking the same. Patsy, you should share that prize.
OK, TAS, you probably look even better than before. -
HI BOB YOU MADE IT HOME ALREADY? THAT WAS QUICK. IT WAS SO GREAT SEEING YOU AND I WILL CALL NAT TOMORROW AND TELL HOW ALL ABOUT THIS AND THAT YOU WERE ASKING FOR HIM. I AM STILL ON CLOUD NINE POST REUNION. YOU LOOK GREAT, YOU REALLY HAVEN'T CHANGED MUCH. I WAS SO GLAD YOU MADE IT. WE NEED TO START PLANNING NEXT YEAR'S REUNION. HAVE A GREAT NIGHT (WHAT'S LEFT OF IT)
-
CUZ TERRY, IT WAS PROBABLY ONE OF THE BEST AND MEMORABLE NIGHTS OF MY LIFE. WHAT GREAT FUN WE ALL HAD. IT WENT WITHOUT A HITCH. HOW DOES ONE THANK YOU FOR ALL THAT YOU DID FOR SO MANY PEOPLE. LOVE YOU LOTS
-
JUDY IT WAS GREAT SEEING YOU AND RICHIE AFTER ALL THESE YEAR
FRANNY, WHAT CAN I SAY? YOU ARE SUCH A WONDERFUL AND CARING PERSON. I HOPE WE SEE EACH OTHER AGIN SOON. ENJOY THE PJ PARTY W/THE GIRLS. -
Hi Mary Ellen Conroy Trocchio: This is Janet and I am on my sister Marilyn's computer. Say Hello to both Michael & Jimmy for all of us, Bob, Marilyn & me.
Everyone Else: Great to see everyone and thank you Terry for pulling it all together. -
Hi All, just had to say WOW!! what a wonderful day it was. Old friends reconnected and new friendships were forged.
Terry, AnnMarie, Twiggy (who I think traveled the farthest to be here), Lori a huge heartfelf THANK YOU for pulling it together and pulling it off (Terry's Mike - thank you for your help!) I also want to thank Mildred Romano and I'm sorry, but I can't remember your name, for the beautiful rose and the lovely note. And to Terry, thank you for the gift.
It's truly amazing and somewhat humbling knowing what a great neighborhood we all came from. It made us who we are. I think Sen. Clinton must have known about our old 'hood when she said it takes a village to raise a child. We are testiment to that!
For all our mothers, fathers, brothers, sisters, aunts, uncles, sons, daughters (well you get the idea), they were with us enjoying every minute of it too!
Good night all. Can't wait to see the pictures. Can't wait to wear my tee shirt. Sweet dreams.
Karen -
Hey, Bob. I really liked your outfit, too. I have commandeered your sister Marilyn's computer and am holding your two sisters hostage until you show your yellow face. Either you come out and face me like a man or the sisters go.
Sissy L. -
Thanks Bob Horan. Those are sweet words to any woman!! I hope the traffic wasn't to bad going back home.
It was fun - I enjoyed putting names to faces.
Good night.
Karen -

Subject: MARYELLEN
Maryellen - This is your old baby sitter Danny. HOW ARE YOU? Was at the reunion today with Ralph and Maryellen. They look fantastic! I'm on my sister n law Carol's website right now. Asking Ralph about you and Anthony and the kids. I know that the kids are retired (Ralph and I are doing something wrong) and doing great! I'm glad to hear it. My home email is [email protected]. I won't be able to get to my computer until I get home Saturday morning. So write me and I can get back to you. The reunion was GREAT! And everyone looked great! It was really great to see everyone that I knew and meeting people that I didn't know. Terry and Twiggy and all the people who did a lot of the work behind the scenes should get an award to pull this off the way they did. Very grateful to her and all. They really rekindled old friends and I'm sure we will all stay in touch. Anyway, write me and I promise to get back to you. Your ex-babysitter, Danny -
TO ALL IT WAS SO OVERWHELMING SEEING EVERYONE AFTER ALL THESE YEARS. I HOPE EVERYONE HAD AS GREAT A TIME AS I DID. I CAME HOME TO MY HUSBAND AND KIDS AND I COULDN'T GET THE WORDS OUT FAST ENOUGH ON WHAT A GREAT TIME I HAD, AND HOW AMAZING IT WAS SEEING EVERYONE. I AM STILL SO WOUND UP, I CAN'T EVEN THINK ABOUT GOING TO SLEEP ANY TIME SOON TONITE. HOPE, WE CAN DO THIS GAIN NEXT YEAR
