Hello and thank you to everyone on the Planning Committee for the great 50th Class Reunion!
I have a hard time saying "50th Class Reunion", as it feels like such a short time ago that we walked down the halls of Aquinas!
It sounds l missed an eventul evening at Moon Tunes, but I hope to attend next year's event. Friday evening at Big Al's was so much fun catching up with people from my past! Some I recognized and some I did not...I was hoping to see everyone looking the same as in 1971! It was fun sharing stories with Nancy Geier, who reminded me that we were ALWAYS the last two people in line for First Communion, Confirmation, and Graduation, as we were the tallest girls in our class!
Saturday evening was just as fun, meeting more new faces, and remincing how we ever fit into our gym uniform, which either Mary Sauer or Rose Service had on display. I also enjoyed speaking to John Petrucelli, as we always had a locker next to each other - always...Petry and Petrucelli! I guess that is how they did things back then.
Until next time, thanks for the memories!
