Joyce's Story
Life
November 9 - Former classmates from P.S. 32, P.S. 159, P.S. 130, I.S. 25, Francis Lewis and Bayside High Schools got together at Caffe on the Green. Hey, we celebrated turning 50! Why not!
This took 6 months to plan.
What I want to do with the rest of my life is open a place where a few people can get together without having to leave a deposit or guarantee that a certain amount of people have to show up!
March 9, 2008 - Former classmates from P.S. 32, I.S. 25 and FLHS got together for an impromptu gathering at The Sly Fox Inn. We had a blast!
June 2011 - Time to plan another Francis Lewis Reunion for class of 1976... to celebrate graduating 35 years ago!
My story...
I lived in Flushing, Queens for 22 years of my life... on 161st Street. My parents are now gone, and we sold the family house. I miss my parents very much and even miss the house. The house is for sale again and I want to buy it back! It is a mess outside and I feel bad about it! Why, I'm not sure. Because I always felt it was my home! I still feel New York is my h...Expand for more
ome and I've lived in New Jersey way longer than I lived in New York! I work in New York City. I guess that's why! I met my husband at The Dublin Pub in New Hyde Park on St. Patrick's Day many years ago. We moved to New Jersey when we got married because he was offered a job in Newark, rather than Dallas which is where we almost ended up. We have been living in New Jersey ever since, but I am still a New Yorker at heart, having worked in the city my whole working life, except for Burger King while I attended Queensborough! I have been in the advertising industry since 1979. I was at Benton & Bowles (D'Arcy Masius Benton & Bowles) for 23 years. I lost my job there and now work at Avrett Free Ginsberg with an alumni of Francis Lewis High School. I am looking forward to getting out of this rat race soon. My husband had a dream about Winter Haven Florida. Never heard of it. Looked it up... not bad! Toll Brothers make nice houses close by. It's nice to dream! Hope all is well with everyone. If you read this... send me a note, okay! Take care all!
