Alfred's Story
I'm still alive, but old and fat now. I do HVAC repairs part time for a living, not married and no kids.
I still have my old 1949 Buick ( under restoration since 02), and I'll sell it if I ever get it put back together.Sold the original Triumph TR3 around 1992, and sold the (same) spare I built in 2002, got good $$ for that one -it was totally restored and real pretty. I guess after driving TR3's for 12 years or so I kinda got tired of it.
Living in the same home in Bolton as 1969, part inherited part bought in 1988 after my Dad died.
I still use old cars and boats. I drive a 1984 Ford wagon daily and have a 1985 Ford wagon as a back up. Way to much work to keep cars this old running, but 2 good things... no emission tests and $30.00 a year property tax each!
As to family, Mom died 1971, ...Expand for more
Brother Roger died in 1981, Father Horace died in 1987. Have older sister Ann, in Vernon, and younger sister Linda in Hartford. I'm not alone, as I somehow managed to wind up with 6 cats! I spend my days vacuuming mountains of cat hair and carting out dirty kitty litter.
Do part time HVAC work for R+R plmb. in Manchester, and M+M plmb. in Bolton. My PT business is Ace Appliance, but to be honest I avoid fixing appliances like the plague.I don't do TV repair any more either.
A little prophecy from the yearbook did come true.... I fixed up both Greg Carini's, and Jim Minicucci's motor scooters in 2010. Greg still has the 150 cc he used to ride and Jim got his used 125 Vespa with a seized engine.
I sincerely hope that all my old classmates are Healthy and reasonably happy with their lives.
