"A Sad Day."
Jul. 23rd, 2021 09:21 pmThat, I'm told, is the way my mother described a very significant event in the life of our late sister, born this day in 1939.
Not as sad as the day in October 1988 when we lost her.
But sad all the same.
She graduated in East Meadow High School's first-ever senior class in 1957, twenty years before I did.
That's Sandy on the right of the photo, outside what was then our family's church. I remember Pat, on the other side of the guy in the middle, from around the corner; Ronnie, in the middle, I never did track down, but I believe I confirmed he has also passed.
I still think of her every day. Happy 82nd.
ETA. No, I didn't confirm that. Sorry, Ronnie:( I posted that, and a couple other pictures, a year ago June when I came across them. Some others of the same last name had passed away by then, but Ronnie was apparently alive and well in Florida. Hopefully he still is.
