Good Morning Jeanette, lucky you ---- getting the eggplant------because I started my garden late this year, I only got some tomatoes and green peppers. Everything is pretty much dying off.

Woke up with a sinus headache this morning so I need to go take some meds and start my day!!! Have a good one!!

I have to put David's marine photo in there that is just the photo that came with it. that is David's flag from the funeral. My son Jonathan framed it and has it in his room. I have all his medals, have to put them in the box also. He was a marine in vietnam in the 60"s... 2 years in nam.

Hi Terry, this is Danny Sanchez. I was browsing the old web site last night and I saw where you wrote that Geraldine Gagliardi is your cousin. When we were about 9 years old Gerry, Flossie Catalano would hang out in the empty store below her house and one year we put on a haunted house show for Halloween. Gerry & Flossie were also my first kiss playing spin the bottle down there. They were both great friends and I do miss them. I have done searches over the years trying to find them, but I guess because of changes in names through marriage I had no luck. As I told you in an email I have been married for 33 years to a wonderful woman who I married 18 days after I met her. I remember people in the neighborhood thinking I was crazy or she must be pregnant. She was not, my daughter was born 17 months later. LOL. we have four children, two still at home because we took a nine year break between the second one and the third one. I don 't know what we were thinking. I miss the old crew, Jimmy Catalano & his brother Richie. I remember driving down to Washington, DC to visit his brother, Junior (Louie) in the hospital when he got back from Viet Nam. Billy Catalano got us all jobs cutting grass in Greenwood Cemetary. Then there was Jamsie, Dominck Bruzzese, Stanley Drezek, Chickie Ligouri, Alan Taglianetti, Frankie, Willy & Robert Manzione and the twins Annette & Nicky. Their mom would make me promise to hold the twins hand when we crossed the street every day going to PS 172 on 29th St. There is just so much I don't want to go on forever. Paul's brother Peter Giglio went through JHS 10 with me. I heard from Francesca and saying prayers that her surgery goes well. If anyone wants to contact me my email is [email hidden] and my cell number is 302-420-9387. Please make sure your cousin Geraldine gets my contact info and if Judy can get it to Richie, Flossie & Jimmy. Jimmy use to make me fix his hair whenever we went dancing. He was so particular, every hair had to be in place. Thanks for keeping the web site going. I love you all.

omg memory lane!!!

Geraldine is on a cruise and I will cut and paste this and she will probably read it anyway when she gets back. she still keeps in touch with Flossie. Judy and richie will be at my house for the reunion. I enjoyed reading the above and peeing my pants about Jimmy (froggy to me) LOL Paul will probably read this also.
I believe Annette manzione is still on 22nd Street next to Annie S..

Hi Jeanette...our beach bunny!! Love ya!

MaryAnn ..... You reminded me of what I play with my grandchildren.
They sit on the bottom step of wherever we are ....and you hide something in your hand behind your back ......
and they get to choose which hand the item is in....if they get it right they go up to the next step......
Samantha laughing everytime she gets it right ....ohhh what a feeling!
Still keeping all of you in my prayers

Hi Danny .....you have to tell Charlie to come on here also! How is your Beautiful Mom?
Thank so much for the memories....loved reading that right now!
You mentioned Alan Taglienetti....he used to stay with Eddie Pessalano
at the Gym alot. There was a time where we would hang out
by the mailbox on the corner 17th and 5th .....
watching Alan walk to the gym was the highlight of our night
(if you know what I mean) (wink).

Geri ...is on her Cruise right now to Alaska
