Bio Section
Let's start a separate post so everyone can fill us in on whats been going on with themselves and families.
I am married to Al for almost 34 years. He is an Auto Technician for a Toyota dealership. We have two daughters. Jessica, 28, is married to Devin and they live in Ardmore, PA. Jessica is a CPA and works for PriceWaterhouseCoopers in Philadelphia, PA. Andrea, 26, lives in Wilmington, DE and works for ING Direct.
I married Rhonda Cohen whom I met in college and we have two wonderful kids, Anne and AJ. Rhonda is an elementary school teacher working in Short Hills NJ where we haved lived since 1991. Anne (named after my dearly departed sister who passed away in 1984) is 22 years old and just graduated from Williams College with a double major in physics and geo science. She has a Fellowship to continue her studies at Princeton where she will work on getting her PhD in geo science (don't ask). My son AJ (Andrew Jeremiah) just started his first year at Middlebury College in Vt and hopes to play both football and baseball, two sports which he loved and excelled at in high school. I have two choc labs (Nellie who is 14 and Tessie who is 3). My Mom is still hanging in there at 86 years old and still lives on Buel Ave. My Dad just recently passed away, may he rest in peace. I am an Attorney. I had practiced with our own John Connors and his Dad up to 1993 when I began a practice with Michael McMahon (some of you may remember Mike's bro Joseph who was my best friend through high school and passed away in 1980 from a bout with leukemia). John C and I have remained dear friends for some time now and see each other often. Mike McMahon had to resign from my firm last year after he was elected to the US House of Representatives as SI's current Congressman. Some of my fondest memories are of my St Anns days and growing up in the Berry Homes. My biggest blessings have been meeting my wife and having our two children. No regrets really and I am looking forward to meeting up with my St Anns brothers and sisters on Nov 20th!!!!
My wife Deborah, Deb and I have been married for 12 years. We met through work and have lived in California in Irvine, San Fran and Manhattan Beach were we are today. We have one child Samantha who is 8 years old and keeps us very busy. My Mom, Dad and two sisters all still live on Staten Island which brings us back at least twice a year.
John--so sorry to learn that your gorgeous sister passed and that your father recently passed. You have a beautiful family. My father died when I was 30 (still think about him every single day) and my mother passed nine years ago this November.
Calvin--remember when you and Randy Ferraro were fighting over me in Kingergarten?
I currently live in Monmouth County, NJ with my wife Jean. We have three adult children: Daniel(recently married), Michael and Laura. I have worked for the past thirty years in the field of Special Education as a teacher and more recently as a Principal of a NYC Public School in the Great Kills section of Staten Island. Our students have autism and multiple disabilities. My parents are deceased; my brother Steve (Class of 1972) a Port Authority employee passed away on 9-11. My brother Ken and sister Karen also live in NJ. I have many great memories growing up in Dongan Hills and attending St. Ann School. Looking forward to the reunion!
I've been married to Diane for 27 years, and we have three children. We live in Croton on Hudson, NY since leaving Manhattan 16 years ago (big name for a very small town. Diane teaches at Head Start nearby. Melissa is 20, a junior at Hobart William Smith college, where she is a double major in Russian Area Studies and Asian Studies (languages mostly). We just put her on a plane to Russia after Labor Day weekend for a semester at Yaroslavl University. My son Daniel is 18 and just started at Cornell at the end of August, where he plans to major in math. Mary Regina is 11 and missing her brother and sister.
I've been in business and professional publishing and information businesses since I started out, mostly in marketing and product development (with one detour into the ad agency world). I'm working in Hartford these days, in financial services research and consulting.
For those of you who remember my family, my dad and his wife are still on the Island, north shore. My brothers Charlie and Bob are in Montana, in the Missoula area, where they have had a contracting business for 30+ years, and Claire is in California, in Silicon Valley living the good life.
I've often thought of the days at St. Ann's and of all of you through the years, and wished you all the best. I look forward to spending some time together after all this time!
I'm sorry I missed the reunion ! I know many of you- from Boy Scouts, St. Peter's, New Dorp A & P ( hint-hint to the lady who likes Carly Simon music, sings & plays guitar herself ), College of SI- Sunnyside Campus. please inform me of the next get-together of any kind contact: sman356@yahoo.com
