Alan (Al)'s Story
Life
After teaching with Toronto Board till 1998, I had some changes in my domestic life, i.e. grown up son Carl and several years on my own. I remarried and moved to Kitchener where my wife Vicki and I now live with 2 cats. - I wasn't ready to fully retire, but wanted a less stressful teaching assignment and became a secondary teacher (Spec. Ed. at Bramalea SS) with Peel Board.
Love to hear from the old Lakeshore TC, (or Toronto schools) crowd.

Shirley St. P.S. memories 1956-57 (before Parkdale Collegiate 57 to 62):
I was known as "Axel" then before I anglicized my first name to "Alan". My family had just come to Canada and we lived at 1735 Dundas St. I joined Mr. Melmer's gr. 7's in May 1956 and had Mr. Heard for. gr. 8, then going of...Expand for more
f to Parkdale C.I., the Canadian Army where I became a lieutenant for 5 years. Also graduated U.of T. and Lakeshore Teachers' College.
I surprised Mr. Heard walking into his class at Gladstone in June 1967, exactly 10 years after gr. 8 at Shirley, showing him my brand new Toronto Board teacher contract. - Proud as punch he was walking around with his arm around my shoulder introducing me to half the school. Good memories!
I'm retired now living in Kitchener with my wife.
I'd love to hear from anyone who remembers me including Danny Hibbins, Ernie Pani, George Holian, Sandra Woodburn, Joanne Stade, Monica Zado, Jack Kingsley, Ingrida Hagedorn and all others!
I have the May 1957 gr.8 Class Photo. Anyone interested in how innocent we (most of us) looked ?
