Happy Birthday Dave🎂.

I brought your name up at the meeting asking if anyone had heard from you as I was worried you haven’t been well. I was sorry to hear that I was right. I hope you’re taking care of yourself and improving.

I miss your sense of humor.

Hi Bob,

These are the dates Sandy and I have available to go to Alvarado:

10-29, 11-3, 11-10, 11-13 and 11-13

Once you let me know which dates will work for you, I’ll call Alvarado’s principal to see if he has any of our dates available also. Get back to me as soon as possible. Maybe, we can finally make this happen.

See you at the picnic.

Hi Bob,

Funny, your name came up yesterday. My friend, Marnie Mufti (Fricke) said she recently met you. Her sister Suzie (Fricke) Landstra is my bestfriend and is currently visiting from Idaho.

I’m feeling much better and would still like to go. I will get in touch with you and Sandy to set up a date.

I spoke to the principal there who said we would be able to tour the school.

We’ll talk soon.

Thanks for posting this John. Beverly was my closest friend in high school and beyond. We shared an apartment together in El Cerrito. She was flying with United then. I bumped into her several years later at a Gift Show in S. F. and we had dinner. She'd fallen on the job, injured her back and could no longer fly. We had so much fun together during our time together! I spoke on the phone with her not long before she died. I know that life became challenging for her as she got older but on our last phone call she was so present and alive with memories! I'm very grateful to have had her as a friend 🧡!

Hi Bob,
Happy Birthday. I assume it’s a special one, 80. It’s going to be a great year.🎂

I’m still planning on touring Alvarado at some point. I have had two back surgeries since December of 1925 that take a lot a lot of time to recuperate from. Still hoping to make that visit soon and will let you know.

Once again, Happy 80th.

One of my favorite memories of Jack is when he and Jim Hayworth bragged to our class at Portola how they had finally reached their goal of wearing their jeans until they were so dirty that they could finally stand by themselves.

I know I was one of the many of the girls in our class that always wished we'd be the girl who he'd ask to wear his ID bracelet and get a nightly phone call from, which what was the meaning of going steady was in those days.

Sixty plus years later these now mature women, who were those young girls are still asking, "Has anyone run into Jack Palumbo?"

 I knew Chris at Kensington, ECHS, and beyond.  Always humble, always considerate of others ...... a quiet powerhouse.  I'm proud to have known him.

Hi Carole,

Your name came up recently and I said I thought you had lived on the corner of Burlingame and San Benito at one time. Just wondering if my memory is correct?

How are you and when did you move to Eagle? I love that area. Do you remember Carol Wagner Smith or Larry Smith from class of 63? They live in Eagle.

Hope you’re doing well. It’s been a long time.
