overwhelmed

WOW!

I stopped in Aledo a couple weeks ago for the first time in at least 30 years. What a sight! North Barracks and Niles Hall are sorely neglected. But boy, did it bring back a flood of memories to wander around the campus and downtown.

Since visiting Aledo I found this sight and have spent hours reading everything here. A BIG THANK YOU to Bob Fritz for maintaining this for all of us.

I enjoyed studying the photo from the reunion. I recognize several names: Paul May, Joe Greco, Mitch Russo, Ray Rossi, Paul Roush, Louis Hallstrom, Norm Iglarsh, and Sam Fantino. And I can even recognize some of the faces -- after 42 years! Congratulations to you guys who haven't changed much in all that time.

What memories!!

KNOW WHAT YOU ARE TALKING ABOUT, JACK. I GOT THE SAME FEELING WHEN I TRAVELED BACK. HOPE YOU WILL MAKE THE 2006 ALL CLASS REUNION.

Re: overwhelmed

Well,it sure is nice to know some of you old farts that haven't been with us since school let out finally found us. Your right about the school. The last time I was there (1994), with Mr. Iglarsh it looked really bad. We were picking out all the rooms we had been in during the course of our stay at school. I even took a tour around the slab to bring back the memories. You should check out taps to see how many of the people you knew are there. Nice to see that you found us Sir, now stay in the fould.....Rich Karpes class of 64'
