Hi Renee,

I was good friends with the Worry's. You have a good memory. Lived across the street from them on North Eleventh. They were at 207 and we were 198.

Nice to hear from you. I am teaching in town, have three children, and run around Motown like a chicken without a head. How are you doing? Probably just as crazed.

Take care,
Barbara

love the fact i can walk down memory lane on this site. i am so grateful to john. good to talk to more & more classmates. interesting to see how we all turned out. most of us somewhat sane, (not egan or davis) but don't tell them................:)

I saw that Renee. And I'm tellin' Jimmy. You'll have to go to the Principal's office AGAIN!!!

i know, i know bob. i always get punished for speaking the TRUTH! i will meet you & jimmy down there since it was your home away from home!

Barb, I too hung around with the Worrys. Michael, more than Maureen. I tried to email Maureen Worry (from her email on our site) but it came back, so I assumed it has changed or just listed incorrectly. Anyway, I heard Michael is a priest. Any one know how we can locate him....Take care....

Barb, here's those photos you sent in. Discuss among yourselves.

The Worlds Fair Beanies! What I would give to have kept mine! or had a camera that day! The CYO Day at the Fair was something else in the history of StRose
I do recall seeing groups of Black and White habits over at the Schaefer Beer Pavillion!

is that sis maureen francis? i kinda rem her. i know i thought she was beautiful.she was my best teacher there along with Mrs. Lannon & Ms Gilhooly.
i remember we (not too sure who was in our "group") got lost & we HAD to meet at 6p somewhere in order to catch the bus i believe. we spent more time getting our sense of direction that we missed things at that fair. i think we missed more then saw because of the deadline.i still regret it to that day.
see what i mean jim, bob, ro & billy when i told you i get lost going around the corner? perfect example.........

john, obviously i am not working today (boss is off), i have some old pics from srl. i don't know how to get to you if i don't have tech equipt. i know i have 1 of ms gilhooly, kindergarten class & few others i would love you to have (not originals, i scp book). mail them?

Renee, ask someone who has a scanner to scan them and attach them in an email to me.

hi john, will do. use the bonaire email? i will bring in as soon as i finish cleaning my craft area & have my IT guy here at work scan for me, i know how to attach & send to you from there. I am soooooooooooo pc illiterate!
thanks

Top picture, Sr, Alexandra in the middle?
Margaret Cullinane above her. I can't really see
the rest. I think the nun on the left is the one who
always had "rosy" cheeks.

Second picture: Maureen Worry on left, Dee O Rourke
in middle (and someone's gonna hate me for this but?)
Phil Silvers in drag (Sgt, Bilko). Huh???

Hi Guys,

I found this pictures at my mom's. It is definitely Maureen and DeeDee. I have no idea who the other gal is....And I am drawing a blank with the nun picture. They had to have been my friends if I took their picture! Oh well.

I know Michael Worry was a brother up here at Delbarton. Friends of mine knew him when their sons were there. He was apparently one heck of a character. He is no longer at Delbarton. I lost contact with Maureen as soon as we went to HS.

John, thanks for posting the pictures. What a kick!

Barbara

Jimmy,

Sgt. Bilko??? I did not know we went to school with him. My memory is really....bad.

Barbara

The Phil Silvers show aired 1955 -1959, then ran
as reruns in early 60's.Sgt. Bilko was the character
Phil Silvers played. When you were homw sick it would be on.

Loved the Show. My brother and I watched it all the time. Good old Phil Silvers. We were also addicted to I Love Lucy!

The girl on the right in the picture with the two nuns is my old friend Mary Cordero. She lived at 46 North Sixth Street. She left I think after Mrs. Foti's class in the fourth grade. She moved to West Orange & I never heard from her.

I do!!!!

The nun on the left is either Sr. Anne Zachary or Sr. Michella. Michael Worry is the Pastor of a Catholic Church in Linden. His sister Maureen lives in Linden also. She works for Archie Schwartz Realtors. BD

Michael, Father Benedict Worry OSB, is pastor
of Saint Elizabeth's in Linden on Hussa Street.
They (the parish) is celebrating their 100th
anniversary this year.

Hey Bobby, any chance of getting Michael Worry to attend First Friday or better still the Christmas bash?.....Take care.....

I spoke with Worry a few years back. He is uninterested in reuniting with anybody.

I am quite surprised to hear that. Michael was always such a friendly kid, always willing to help & he knew early on he would be a priest. I can't understand that, him being a member of the cloth & all. So, when he gives sermons, does he tell everyone where he grew up or not????????
