"I grew up in the same Monroe St neighborhood as Greg, but hadn't seen him in quite a while. Always intended to look him up and chat about old times but, sadly, I never got around to it. I recall his wedding to Marge Grant at the church on Regent St - he borrowed my red convertible for the day. Moral of story - look up old friends today!"

"No where to really start.............we were neighbors in Madison at Chalet Gardens..many great memories..Lesa was born at this time, Kristen would visit often.....camping, games, great conversation, buying gold, Wisconsin Badger games, laughing, being brave during huge snow storms...our doors opened in a foyer, so we didn't have to go outside...will never forget..."
