I am sorry to report that Vic Cecere passed away "peacefully" Friday night, December 20th. Pre-deseased by his wife, Classmate Sue Tierney.
I said earlier we had connected on Facebook, he often commenting on one of my posts. Just knowing he was 'out there' always brought a smile to my face. I am reminded of our Class Renuion - our '70th' according to the cake - the year we were all truning 70.....2017? We had a picnic at Dwyer Stadium (Wayne Fuller calling the game). I wore my Class of '65 T-shirt that day and Vic came up and said "I designed that shirt!

On a lighter note, I remind you we celebrate another author in our class - Dave Scribner - on the publication of his book -
An accomplishment Dave should be proud of. Available on Amazon and bookstores; I'm asking my own local bookseller in Rochester to order it for me ("Buy Local'). Still time to get it for Christmas.... for your children (or your grandchildren). Say "I know the author" - that will make you a bigwig! (Any other authors out there that you've been hiding from us?!?
Congratulations Dave!

It's that time of year when we all think of others, a Season of Giving - Good Cheer, presents, and yes, donations to causes we support because sometimes it makes a life-long change in someone's life. I think you all know where this is going.
Since 1992 the Freedom Scholarship has given out $32,000 to one or more graduating seniors every year to help them further their education. Look at the 'Freedom Scholarhship' tab to the left for a hint of all those who have benefitted.
Please consider sending a contribution to the scholarship in the form of a check made out to "BHS Class of '65" c/o Steve Hawley, 50 Main Street, Batavia, NY 14020.
Take care of yourselves and save the Date - we want to see you
August 22nd-24th for our 60th Class reunion!
