Yvette's Story
Hey everybody, I have to go back a little further starting with St. Gregory's. I attended there firs thru third grade. I used to live around the corner on Lincoln Place. When mu family moved my mom decided to take me out of the school since my sister graduated already. My memories of St. Gregorys were church, prayer, and lots of homework.

rom my junior high school was going there (IS 232-Winthrop). The first day I got lost and had to walk for what seemed 5 miles tired, scared, & sweaty. By the time I got there school was ofcourse over. My father put me on the wrong train (R), telling me there was no B train, how wrong he was!! Anyway, got used to the travel but couldn't stand the racial drama. I did bowl for the school and met some nice people (including my future spouse). After graduation went away to college (Howard) and returned home in '79. Ran into a old friend from Utrecht, Glenn Edwards & we got married in 1980. I have two sons from that union, got divorced but we are still friends. Currently employed and just trying to connect with old friends and meet some new ones. (smile)
