    Some of the Comments Received 

    I will publish here some of the comments that we have received by email from classmates:

    From Susan Brown Bennett: “Thanks for all your hard work organizing the reunion. I had a great time. I like the idea of having the official get-together every 5 years. There might even be a bigger turn out at future events especially as the economy improves. I was surprised to find out that so many of our classmates had relocated. “

    From Pat Urbut: “Hi! I received an e mail from Lourdes Morris Garrick expressing interest in a reunion next year. She hopes that some more come who did not show this time.”

    From Jim Weimar: “I am all for it and would be happy to help out again. I really enjoyed it. Roger Smith asked me to call him re: meeting for lunch, any one interested? Also Don Mullaney and his wife Carol would like to get together, if any one is interested just call or e-mail.”

    From Lourdes Morris Garrick: “Thanks for organizing such a fun reunion. I had a wonderful time. It was so good to see you again. And a special thank you for the terrific web site.”

    From Joan Challingsworth Goliak: “The accolades are rolling in as they should be! It was such a nice party and everyone really connected. We couldn’t ask for more. Thank you again.”

    From Frank Ganser: “”We had a great time at the re-union.You did a fantastic job.Thanks for everything.

      I had a fabulous time, and really enjoyed seeing everyone again and talking to you all……. Wish I had more time to talk with everyone. I think a 5 year get together is a grand idea.

    Quick Update 

    We are continuing to dicker with Toby’s on getting us the best deal for the money. We are hoping to get at least an hour or hour and a half of open bar and then go to cash bar after dinner. Check the blog for updates.

    Mike Shaughnessy has submitted his update for the website. There is a great picture of Mike and some of his family, and a few paragraphs of info on what Mike is doing now. Unfortunately, Mike will not be attending, but he does say he will raise a glass or two that night in a toast.

    He also mentions this in his update:
    “Question for the class: does anyone else remember a day in late spring of ’59 when a group of St. E alums celebrating their 50th stopped outside of our classroom? I “think” I recall that scene and hearing Marilou Gannon and some of the other girls commenting on how strange it would be to come back after 50 years.”

    Anyone else remember that???

    Toby’s Squeeze Play 

    Just a little update for those of you following what is happening to get us ready for this Big Event. We found out yesterday that the actual cost of the food/tip is a bit more than we were lead to expect. Seems there is some new county or local tax being added to each meal starting July 1st which brings the total tax up to a whopping 9%.

    That is going to eat into what we thought we had available for flowers, a cake, little prizes, etc. The committee is discussing now how to handle the cash bar tab. More updates as they become available. All thoughts and suggestions are appreciated.

    The Big Event 

    Well guess where i got to, a labor of love. I agree with Tom, damn the martinis, full speed ahead. Less time eating more time on what really matters. Now, if only Patti would come, the evening will be complete.

      Better – but actually I liked the GINORMOUS FONT for an accent – maybe not the whole post.
