Yes, Don Nevins was a great guy and very musically talented. I was lucky enough not only to play softball, baseball, and basketball with him, but sing some barbershop and go to one of his voice lessons in St.Louis. After one of our barbershop practices, we even went to Norb's Tavern and earned a pitcher of beer singing a few songs!! What a great talent and good upper Alton friend. One more thing, when he came back from NYC, he gave me an LP he cut, and I'm holding it in my hands right now, " myheartsings "!!! Perfect title don't you think?
Dear Ralpha,boys, and family, Debbie, Sally and I were very sorry to hear Randy had passed away. I had been thinking about Randy over the weekend without knowing about his passing. We go back a long way, grade school, East Jr., and Alton High. We were in Cub Scouts together, visited each other's homes, played football and ran track together at East and Alton High, were neighbors on Euclid where Ben and Sally found trouble easily together. What a great guy and family! Our upper Alton group has had wonderful things to say about him, and I echo those thoughts. As usual, we always wish we had stayed in closer contact through the years, but when we did see each other it was just like it had been, always friends. Our very best to all of you.

What a Great Guy Carl was! Sorry to see him go. Prayers to all the family, I know he will be missed. Met Carl at East Jr., and played football with him through high school. As Mike Smith said, he had an older brother, Ed, who was a great basketball player a year or two ahead of Carl. Carl was the strong silent type. He showed what he was made of, didn't need to talk about it. Always thought a lot of him. It was good to see him at some of our reunions. He would play golf with our small group of has beens. May he rest in peace. Bill Kodros
Sorry to get this news. Jeff, David Plunk, Terry Frank, and Charley Richmond were neighborhood buddies that I went to school with from grade school through East Jr. to High School. We were in Cub Scouts together too. Lot's of great memories! My best to Jeff's family and friends. Bill K
Hey Lester, I still remember you leaning into that turn on the 880 relay team we were on. Good to know you are still kicking. Best to you, Bill
Judy and I were next door neighbors. We knew eachother for over 72 years. We always remembered each other's birthdays, and acted like siblings, teasing etc.. We did go out once, always felt comfortable, until we started home. Pulled into her driveway, mine too, and went very uncomfortably to the front door. Both remarked it felt very strange to go into their house this way. At the door, we kissed! Parted and looked at each other and laughed at the same time!! Brother and sister to the end. I got to be with her in January when I came home for a weekend. Just an hour, but as usual a good time, No mention of health problems then, she just talked about Rusty and Chad, and her grandchildren. Glad we spent time together. A very big loss for me, and I'm sure others. God Bless Judy and her family.
