Dave and I went through most all of the grades together. He was always the caring young man, which extended into his adult years. Always there to lend a helping hand to anyone. A quiet hard working young man and a fine husband and father. He certainly left a legacy with the Class of '57.

Rest in peace Dave, you have earned a place in heaven.

God Bless Nelly. I will never forget when she first came to this country. I believe we were in the second grade. She immediately assimilated into our society and learned our language very quickly. She seemed a bit sad, but her classmates including myself did things to try and make her feel like she fit in immediately.

When we got to high school she was accepted as a speaker in the "I Speak for Democracy" contest. She gave her speech in an assembly and when I think of that day and that speech it can bring a tear or two to my eyes.It was an amazing speech and everyone was grasped by her words. I believe she went on to win the Vermont title with that speech.

She was fine young woman and always seemd to have a friendly smile. RIP Aniela.

Don was a good friend all the way through school along with his brother Jon. We had a lot of fun and a lot of laughs and had some good times discussing life over a cocktail or two. A very up individual who sadly was taken down by a terrible disease. God Bless.

The three photos are of my grandson Julian pitching for the Cincinnati Fury at the Cooperstown Tournament in 2018 and with his Poppy at The Baseball Hall of Fame in front of Micky Mantle's plaque.

Ray was a good friend, as we grew up together in close neighborhoods. We played a lot of baseball on the "vacant lot" and then down in "the hollow" behind Governor Johnson's home. He was always fun to be around friendly and for sure was the class clown.

I will miss the "always glad to see you attitude when going back for reunions". God bless and rest in piece my lifelong friend.

I remember Marshal as a calm, laid-back young man who was warm and friendly. Rest well Marshall. 

Have a great day Rod. I have fond memories of you in school. I meet with Brad Dunbar at high school hoops t Vermont Academy in Saxtons River.
