Brian's Story
After a few fits and starts following high school, I moved to Boston, MA and lived there and in Cambridge across the Charles for 30 years. I worked in Human Services for many years and later managed a Stationery Store for 16 years serving the Harvard Square community. When my father died in 2011, I moved to Philips Mountain in the Taconic Range where I was born, in order to be my mother's caretaker as she traveled the road that Alzheimer's took her. That ended dramatically on June 20, 2018 when Mom died. Seven years I cared for her and it was awful and wonderful. I am grateful that she trusted me to do it.
Some of you in Johnstown may remember I sang a bit. I have over 300 videos posted ...Expand for more
on a site called Singsnap. Since we can't post website addresses here,you can google, Singsnap Philipsmountain and the link to my profile should appear at the top of the page. Go to it and click on "Recordings"
Just to clarify, I went to Ockawamick Central School in Mellenville, NY from kindergarten to 5th grade in 1968. Then we lived in Ticonderoga, NY from 1968 - 1972. From then we lived in Johnstown where I graduated in 1975. Classmates seems a little confused about all this.
Whether you were a friend, a foe, or even just an acquaintance, if we went to school together you are part of me and I carry you with me always. I embrace it all, good and bad and wish all of you peace and health.
