Remember Gary Gato and Joey Rodriguez?...How about Charles Burros, Brenda Herz, Linda Cudzil, Donna Cotfer, Ramona Gough, and a boy named Vince, we think, from the 7th grade? Was it Vince Ventrella?? We haven't located any of them either. If you have any leads on any of these classmates, please let us know!

Remember when we would go outside for recess and we were in this stage for fainting. Some classmates even fainted when mass was going on. Now, that was BOLD!! I think we stopped doing it cause we were afraid of getting caught. What the @#$!% were we thinking? I guess we thought we were living on the edge!!

Remember when we would go up to the teacher one at a time and ask for a bathroom pass so we could practice our cheers when class was going on. How could one nun not know that 6 girls would be out at the same time going to the bathroom?? We got in there and really did our cheer good and got out quick!! The things we got away with!!

Hey, is it just me or does Phil Kleminski look like Fez from the Seventies Show and Paul looks like Ralphie from The Christmas Story.
I love you guys man! Jerry

I want to know Kathy Bryans beauty secret. When we saw her for the first time she looks the same if not better. Way to go Kathy.
Valarie Konikowski hasn't changed a bit and Paul Einikis looks about the same too.
And Jerry from what I can tell you haven't changed to much either.

As for me I still have that goofy smile.

I think the boy named Vince was Vince Vitalone. Dot Vittalones brother. As for the others I have no idea. Has anyone contacted the Barrera family, Rubin, Ray and Diana?

Hey Debbie, I went to my Dad's and found some slides from B.S> Found a few slides of me and Fran at the Science Fair when we won for our project on drugs...I'm having my nephew download the slides and put them on disk and I'll give them to you to use for reunion.

John, you were in the ballpark...Dot does have a brother named Vince, but he wasn't in our grade. Thinking it was Mark Kacmar that filtered through the cobwebs and finally churned up the last name. He was thinking it was somewhere between Vitalone and Ventura...and came up with Ventrella...Vince Ventrella! (That Mark..he's got a mind like a steel trap!) We think that may be it? Now just wondering where to find him!
And, yes we've found all the Barreras!

Hi Deb, It is nice to remember Fran Lorenz. She was the sweetest,dearest friend you could have. I had the honor of going all the way through high school with her. Years later after graduating I ran into her at a bakery in Merrillville and she told me that she was getting married. She was so happy. A couple of years later I received a phone call from Kathy Tompi at work telling me that Fran past away. I went to her funeral and it was so sad. Fran you are greatly missed and we love you!!

Saw Chris and Beth today and all I can say is WOW!!! Chris Colle and Beth Settle are some bodacious looking ? something year old babes. I remember them being cute but I just have to say the years have been really kind to you both. It makes me wonder about the men who let you get away. It’s a good thing I’m happily married or I might be thinking about moving back to the region to do some stalking, I mean courting. Again, all I can say is WOW! You should both be inducted into Wayne and Garth’s Baberham Lincoln hall of fame.

Oh Johnny, I'm blushing, hehehe!!!
I got a kick out of seeing you and Paul in the same room again. Sorry it was under the sad circumstances of Paul dad's funeral though.

Seeing some of the old gang from Ranburn Woods, made my mind flash back to some great times.
Seeing the Einikis family together reminded me of there front yard and that hill which we thought was the hill of all hills. Playing football and Tag your it, at night until the street light went on and we couldn't see each other anymore.
What a great childhood we had.

Thanks for the Bodacious compliment.
It's the red hair, honestly.
