Al's Story
Our class of 1966 went to the old high school that was in the back yard of my home on Irving Avenue.
I played tennis all four years and probably did other things but can't remember what <grin>
Married 1971; divorced 1979 or 80; one son I raised until he moved to Colorado at age 21. Lived in Pa of course but also Ohio cities, Youngstown the longest. Then back to Pittsburgh and built a house in Kennedy Township near Pittsburgh in 1987.
1991 or 92 moved to Albany Ga to take a job that was a great career leap and was soon moved to Atlanta to take over all of Georgia, Alabama and part of Florida.

joined a group called the Baby Boomers Rock and Roll Show. I am the MC and introduce the acts, singers and some fabulous dancers as well as talk about the history of Rock and Roll.

Hmm, That does not seem much to cover over 40 years but it gives you the flavor of my life.
I've lost my year books over the years so if anyone knows where I might get replacements that would be nice. (Really regret not having the signatures though). I would like to mention names of those I think of but know that I will miss some because you all helped shape the great life I have had even if you don't think you did. And those from classes just before and after the class of 1966 too.
I wish I had come to the reunions and kept up with everyone. So many questions. . .
