Bonnie (Luczak) Byrne, Karen Orlando, Marsha (Marecki) Thompson, Muff (Schiller) St. Germaine - 2013 - Florida

A rather elderly gentleman (mid-80's) walks into an upscale cocktail lounge. He is very well-dressed, smelling slightly of an expensive after- shave, hair well-groomed, great-looking suit, flower in his lapel, shoes shined and no walker. He presents a suave, well-looked-after image.

Seated at the bar is an elderly (70-ish) fine-looking lady. The gentleman walks over, sits along-side of her, orders a drink, takes a sip, turns to her and says, "So tell me good looking, do I come here often?"

"I believe this was Mr. Longman’s Social Studies class (see 1965 Talon yearbook page 23). It looks like Bob Anderson in the black polo shirt. He was sort of the ring leader of the impromptu “Meaties” gesture the class is doing. Okay, most of the class is doing."

"How often did we get to wear shorts to school? NOT. But on that day, we had a ball."

"Drummer Boy" for The Montclairs

It was great fun playing the drums for the Montclairs at a number of our dances and sock hops. Those are George Risler’s saxophones next to the drum set.

Do you remember ... Bernie and The Montclairs?

Only George Risler and myself were from Forest View, the other three were from Arlington HS.
