Ellen-- I have one or two sitting on my desk from when Sue L visited.  She told me to scan them and send them to all.  Obviously, it's my lack of time or lack of computer skills that deterred me.  Congratulations on your retirement.  Enjoy your trip.  Come see my "kids" bcI won't be able to go anywhere.   It will be hard to find a babysitter for goats!  Nancy

Carrie Czajkowski (Hogan)

WOW! Look what I started!

Nancy congrats on your kids and your sons graduation.

Ellen congrats on your retirement. I hope you enjoy it as much as us. Enjoy your trip. We have not been there.

Sabina I can't believe they canceled it. I was hoping you would be coming to NY and we could get together.

Busy working in my gardens. After a long winter it is so nice to be out digging in the dirt!

Carrie Czajkowski (Hogan)

PS I'm not on Facebook(and I don't think Sabina is) so you need to keep me informed on this site or my regular email address.

Carrie Czajkowski (Hogan)

Let me know if you decide to get together in NY

Carrie Czajkowski (Hogan)

I was just looking at updated profiles and see many of you have recently retired. Congratulations! Hope you enjoy it as much as my husband and I!

Carrie Czajkowski (Hogan)

My sister Fran was here a few weeks ago and we discussed the LC reunion. She is still working on it. Still trying to find members. If you know anyone from any class in LC please let me know.

Nancy Jacob (Belluscio)

Carrie-  My cousin, Debbie Klingener, was in GLC a few years behind me.  I have talked to her about Fran's idea. 

Carrie Czajkowski (Hogan)

Thanks Nancy.

It is with my deepest regret and a very heavy heart that i have to inform you that on Tuesday July 15, 2014 our classmate and my best friend Pat Minogue has passed away....i dont have any other details and at the families request they ask you to respect their right to privacy .....i will try to get more information at a later date as i know this comes as a shock to all of us who knew him....rest in peace my brother.....you know i love you 

Ronnie Buttacavoli

 That is sad news,  as I was friends with Pat also. Infact, Pat got me an after school job at the Esso gas station on the corner of Linden Blvd and Elmont Rd. Muscle cars and music....... I will miss but not forget you Pat.

Peace,

-Ronnie-

   Pat's passing is really shocking, awful news. Pat was a great guy. We shared the same birthday, same grade school classes, bought SCUBA gear together, drove to Hungry Hermans cutting out for lunches in his brand new 1968 GTO and had lots of good times.

    He was driving my first car, a Triumph TR-3, on Dutch Broadway, and said "Let's see what this baby can do", stepped on the gas and the hood we forgot to latch flipped up, bounced off our heads, and wound up sailing about 20 feet in the air. We always had a fine laugh over that one.

    We played Steve McQueen in "The Great Escape" all over a North Shore golf course on our motorcycles.We were the guys with the pea shooters that annoyed everybody in the darkened EMHS auditorium trying to listen to a classical concert. We guzzled a fifth of Gilbey's gin behind the elementary school in 1965, got so staggeringly drunk and sick afterward neither of us could ever look at Gin again.

   He was voted "best dressed guy" in our 6th grade class. I am sure he's up in heaven and if they take a vote there, he'll again win the best dressed guy.

   God bless him, a wonderful guy, who will be missed. My condolences to Eileen and family and all his good friends.

Nancy Jacob (Belluscio)

I am very sadden to hear of Pat's passing.  I will always remember our 6th grade class.  It was so much fun and I do recall that Pat and I danced a mean "Mashed Potatoes."  He was always a kind young man.  May he  rest in peace.

Edward Meslin

After college, my first job was a salesman at Syntex Laboratories. After joining the company, I found out that Pat was also in my region. We reported to the same manager. He covered LI and I covered Queens. He was always fun to be around and had a very successul career at Syntex for many years. It was a shock to hear this news. Rest in Peace, Pat

Angelo Amendolare

Just a quick note to let everyone know that i am in touch with the family and i am passing all your condolences on to them and that they are thankful for your kind words ....

Frances Milstein (Poris)

I first met Pat in 7th grade when we were in the orchestra class together.  He played the bass well and I played the cello horribly.  Pat was a gentle and sensitive young man and I have many fond memories of all the shenanigans we got into in that class. My thoughts are with his family at this very difficult time.

Frank Gervasi

One day after Angelo tells us about Pat my sister calls to tell me that Eddy Cornetta died as well. I guess it doesn't just rain it pours.

Ed was a real nice guy. He was self employed, did plumbing work, earned an honest living. I understand cancer took him, so his suffering is over.

We were on the freshman football team together, it was hard work, lots of fun, and we had an undefeated team to feel proud of. We were a great bunch of guys.

Rest in peace Ed, you will be well remembered.

Fred Spielmann

So sad to hear about Pat. I hate to say how many of my passed friends I have on Facebook. I use to hear from Pat occasionaly, but it tapered off. I should have known something was wrong.

RIP Pat

William Salmansohn

Wow I am so sorry to hear about Pat

he was one hell of a guy from beginning until and he was always friendly and just just a great

dude.... You will be missed by many

rest in peace Pat

Carrie Czajkowski (Hogan)

Although I really did not know Pat or Eddy it is always sad when one of our classmates dies.

Rest in peace.

Carrie Czajkowski (Hogan)

I thought I'd pass this on.

Girl Scouts now has an alumnae website, alumnae.girlscouts.com, if anyone who was in GS would like to join.

Carrie Czajkowski (Hogan)

Hi everyone,

Ellen how was your trip?

Nancy how are the kids doing?

Ellen Deutsch (Riseman)

Hi Carrie - Trip is great - thanks for asking. We've been to Barcelona, then on to Morocco. Back to Madrid, and through southern Spain. We're in Granada now. A few more days in Spain and then on to Portugal. Traveling is fun, but at our age, a little more tiring than before!!!

Walt Kubiak

I thought some of you might like to know that my good friend, Stuart Asher passed away suddenly on October 24th.

Stu was a great guy and a good friend.  No matter how long it would be between contact, it always felt like we had just spoken yesterday.   He will be sorely missed, at least by me.

He had no family left other than his wife Marlene.  

Susan Baum (Schloss)

Thanks for telling us this, Walt. I remember Stuart Asher from school, and even though I don't think I've seen or spoken with him since high school, I will always remember that he was a really nice person. Handsome, funny, kind. My condolences.

Angelo Amendolare

im sorry to hear the news...i was friendly with him in high school also and i feel the same way Susan does and we are all getting to the point where we have to start taking better care of ourselves.....if his wife needs anything Walt let me know....Angelo
