My God. All of these names on this site. And so many I knew have passed on. People I played guitar with, scored from, attended Parkville School with, hung out with... Overwhelming. Literally took my breath away. Joe Polisar! Stu Moses! Liz Maslow! Holy shit! And all of the tough guys who passed. Steve Panzarella, Big John Fonda.... Cool heads like Peter Raayman and John Rzekonski. Weeping. Thanks for the shock and the time travel. The wife and I go to Rhinebeck at least twice a year, it's a great town and a beautiful part of New York. The French Bistro across from the hotel is recommended. Bring a convertible if you can, and a visit to the Aerodrome is recommended. I doubt I'll attend this thing, since I wasn't THAT tight with schoolmates back then, and it's been one hell of a ride for me. Just glad I landed on my feet, have a loving family, and I finally escaped Long Island just 7 months ago. I lived in the Town Of North Hempstead for 62 straight years. Amazing. (Also unwise.) Just wonderful seeing all these names. Have fun and savor the memories.

'So excited that this is finally happening! I'm looking forward to spending a nice spring weekend with so many dear friends from childhood. Please make every effort to attend if you can. With warmest regards, Ken(ny)
