I AM SORRY BUT I CAN NOT HOLD BACK ANYMORE AND JUST HAVE TO SAY WHAT I FEEL.
SOME WORDS ARE BEST UNSAID OR SAID SOME WHERE ELSE

Dear Terry:

I got your facebook message about my poem and really no words can express what an angel you are, but I tried.

Also, I have to confess, when I was on the food line I had mentioned that I had orginally voted for Prospect Hall, but only because of the fact that I thought it would have been a bigger place for all the people and maybe less work for you. It absolutely had no reflection on the job you did with this reunion. I don't think anyone could or should have questioned that. It was absolutely fantastic!!!!!!!! There I made my confession and now I will do my penance, 3 Hail Mary's, 2 Our fathers, etc etc........Thanks again for the wonderful time.

I didnt even get to eat, sit or drink or dance for that matter! Pictures ...I can pass.....on ......everyone knows that ...my stitches look really bad! Im really sorry I didnt get to see you on Saturday!

I think anywhere we go we'll have a great time. It's so much fun to just be together to talk and laugh!!!!

Yeah Suzie...I'll always be a Brooklynite even though I may have adapted SOME of the southern ways. Was a busy morning here huh. I don't believe I know Pinto but I'm certain that I had to have seen him bein he worked in Murino Bros. If this is Pinto posting these pictures(even I believe it is) it would be nice of you to reach out to some of the genuine people here that seem to truly care about you...and that's all I'll say on that...for now anyway.

Michael ...I thought you left me and did a type-by....(wink)

Deb ......your right ...but we could do a few things every now & then....it would be so much fun ....like we were kids again ......we could jump on a bus and take it to the end and ride back .....LMAO (Im kidding)

ahh white castles chciken with cheese yummmm lol

That was very well said Barabra, I believe that put this whole situation in the proper perspective.

Hey JP......I have to finish a few things ...but I told Patsy ....if you need someone to talk too ...other than her....and I know you love her ....she can give you my cell!

You better be around ....when I need you ....you stinker!

I'm still here Suzie...just sortin out the shit.

I can feel you

you could have said...the guy on top of Helen and THAT would have been funny

Hi Everyone! Hope you are all resting up after the fabulous weekend get together. I think today might be our last day in the 80's then we drop into the 70's.

I found out yesterday that my cousin (age 19) needs a kidney transplant, please add him (Christopher) to our prayer list, this will be his second transplant. Thanks to all of you.

Have a great day!!!

LOL....I was ....but I dont like to share.....LOL

Afternoon Folks...Read back and I think I am missing something???

Joey if that is you, come out & say hello! You have been missed for a long time!... Family is family & we all care about you no matter what is going on!.... Those pictures were beautiful, but the jumper has me a little frazzles... Like I told Paul... COME OUT, COME OUT, WHEREVER YOU ARE!

WE MISS YOU....

Ohhh God MaryAnn .....of course!

You see what I mean .....some times our problems seem so bad ....and there is always someone who is worse off .....and trying to stay alive!

Love & prayers

Suzie.....we should do some little things in between. Even if it's just meeting for lunch. You know you really shouldn't be so selfish.....share with your friends will ya!!!!! LOL

taking my mom to dinner saturday she got a sitter for my brother

HI MaryannL...I first want to offer my condolences for the losses in your family recently and also for you welcoming me here the other day

Maryann he is in our prayers......some people choose to not be happy and there are people who are sick and have no choice!!!!! God bless him.

MaryAnn I will certainly add Christopher to my daily prayers... He is much too young for that kind of hardship. God Bless Him!......
