Patti's Story

Wow, lets see.... where to begin. I can not believe it 's been almost 35 years. What now may seem a lifetime ago yet those memories have stayed with me always. I often wondered about so many and those that i was fortunate to call friend and who I had the luck of spending so many special , silly sometimes but fun memories with during the years I was at St. Mary's. The school buildings ,the bathrooms and stairwells, the cafeteria homeroom,"joy to theworld" every morning on the juke box(what year was that?) the lunchenette on the corner,Tina's, all the wonderful people and places that maybe did not seem so special at the time are such nice memories now. And if I had known then what I know now I would have been an even better friend and esp. a better student and not worried about which color pink or yellow summer uniform I should wear. ( Idid like those summer dresses) And most importantly I would have stayed in touch with so many of you esp. my dearest late friend Susan Carey. I moved on and away so quickly and so ready to take on the world and leave all behind. Life has been very full and rich with so ...Expand for more
many great tales good and bad so many lessons learned along the way. Seeing many wonderful places in travel and living in some pretty nice places here and on the East coast and in Calif. With many new friends along the way. Not always easy but always an adventure. And now at 51 I get to share the best years of my life with a very special person my husband Robert of 15 years( this week.) So fortunate to have found such a good and generous partner. And a really special little guy named Blaise who just turned 5 years old. I never gave up hoping for this blessing and at 47 we were blessed! He is such a joy and so much fun to see life through the eyes and spirit of a small child . I have worked in Retail and Management for years and now have my own small Antiques business in Connecticut were we live . Robert is in the wine and beverage industry and this keeps us busy with lots of good times and travel. My family is still all in New Jersey and doing great. And I hope all of you who take the time to read this are healthy and happy and living life to the hilt.... Stay in touch and God Bless . Cheers, Patti
