MILLIE do I know Tina ? one of the Joy sister's, I'm confused. The one I knew had short red/ auburn hair. I think her son went to Farrell HIgh School because I saw her there once. Do I have the right person ?

Hola: to all new and old friends
RALPH SUARATO: for a second i thought Rosa was giving you Spanish lessons. i have emailed you in the past, it didn't come back to me it probably got lost in cyberspace. i am really looking forward to Sunday, how exciting; Anthony Micari and his son are in Africa they should be coming home some time this week. i will give u his #. they are doing well, thank God. Sorry i missed u at Betty's Funeral, but i was committed that weekend with my daughter, she was called into work, she's a nurse. I am looking forward to meeting Rosa and seeing you and Donnie, i pray that he could make it. His son looks just like him.
lINDA JOY: I will call you tonight or tomorrow, so tell me was it u or i who had a crush on Jimmy Pepper or was it that we thought he was sooooo cute.
TWIGGY; is Annette Aversano and Deleo coming to the reunion? i would love to see them.
Every one have a blessed evening. -

HI NEICE GINA,
AUNT JEANETTE,
LOVE YA SEE YA SUNDAY -
Hola:
ALAN LA GRECA: i want to thank you for that great 8th avenue link. this summer my friend Donna and i walked everyday to Prospect Park from 17 street bet. 3-4 ave much of our walk was on 8th avenue, we would admire the edifices but didn't know much of the the history; thanks for enlightening me. the history lesson was/is great. I noticed in our walks that some of the buildings have some very uniquely shaped fire escapes. Gracias.
Every one should take time out to view the 8th avenue link we have much beauty in Brooklyn, and many don't realize it. i am going to cut and paste and email it to people. Gracias again -

I will always remember Sheila. She was a beautiful woman in and out.
She had grace and dignity. I am sure you miss her; I can't imagine losing my sister. And that was at a time when no one 'got cancer' or even talked about it. Now it's a common occurence/more out in the open.
I remember when Sheila and Donnie were doing major construction in
their house in Staten Island, and they were building this massive 'great
room.' All Donnie's uncles, father?? were there. You were probably
there also, Ralphie S... I remember the faux brick work in the kitchen.
I'd love to see how their children turned out (I saw Nilda's comment that
Donnie's son looks just like him). I remember Michael... is that right?
My ex-husband would always tease him and sing that song to him "My name is Michael, I have a nickel..." (something silly like that).
Well I'm sure Sheila is with mom now and they are at peace. I hope
you can find some peace of mind knowing that.
Look forward to seeing you Sunday! With all this anticipation, I hope I
don't have an anxiety attack.
Love & God Bless Your Evening!
GOOD NIGHT TO ALL! -
Hello Pasty Kirk (Miele) Donna is right you have the two Ralph's mixed up. Jimmy Brown did stay with us for awhile, I don't remember you around the neighborhood. do you have a bother named George? Jimmy Brother Bill works with me now in same city agency.
I did have a firbird and drag raced on 86 st, for the love of me I can't remember the hot dog/ hamberger joint on corner of 86 st and 7th ave.
I'm sure someone on here does, plesase let me know.
Mildred, I have to agree , mildred is far better then Millie, as you know I have a sister named Millie. never liked that name.
Terry , Staten Italy Neighbor here, Milk, Franks, or Rolls? lol
Tina, Thanks for informing about this blog, brings back lots of good memories. -
