Hello Terry,
Thank you for your reply. This is just too amazing-such a small world.
Yes! Maureen and Kenny are my aunt and uncle. Maureen is my mom's sister. I am trying so hard to picture you-I can't wait to call my aunt and ask her. I will never forget Judy's mom, Millie. She always gave candy and extra nickels in our halloween bag if we lifted the mask and showed her who we were

Italian Princess- Hello Rose. Greeting from Las Vegas to Sarasota!

So many bells are ringing! My mom was Dee and Steven is my Dad's brother. I remember JJ Walsh. I was very small when my Dad knew Joey Walsh. I mostly remember my Dad driving me to Burgerama and passing your corner on the way home from those awesome burgers!

What a small world!

Hi Jeanette

Wow, my aunt and uncle lived there when my cousin was first born. Hard to believe he has 2 children of his own now-time sure flies. I do remember Arnold. It would be great to get him on here! I remember Helen and Bobby Benoit. Little Bobby was the oldest son and they had another son and 2 girls if I remember correctly. I remember my aunt saying at 1 time she saw Helen in the market somewhere on SI.

ANTHONY UNBRIA ........... JANET HORAN

Janet & I were just talking about the candy in the cup with the little spoon.
Not to many people remember them., and here you are mentioning it.
They came in pastel colors also. remember ?
They still have flying saucers, they were at the reunion.

I remember when you wanted a coke or soda in the glass bottle you reached down into the frig, and out came an ice cold dripping wet bottle.

GO CART ..... SCOOTER........ what were they called ?
I also remember the first time I saw my husband many many moons ago pushing a go cart with a skate on the back & front and a wood crate in the front with lots of metal soda bottle caps sticking in the wood as decoration, 2 wooden handles to guide it.

RALPH T. you introduced Pete to me way back in Mikes candy store,he was into scooters at the time not girls. LOL You made him turn RED, maybe I did too ???? Bet you don't remember that Ralph.

Bobby, tell Arlene HAPPY BIRTHDAY!

Hello again! Thank you for your response. I was watching a video of my family that my dad had on reel to reel and we had it put on VHS. The entire video is my childhood and your cousin Katie is on it at several of my Birthday parties. It really is a small world. My friend lives in Vegas and introduced me to this page. It really is awesome. Keep in touch.

Patsy, good morning. I hope you have a good day also.
