Daniel's Story

Life I left LaSalle when I was 12. At that time, my grandparents were killed by a drunk driver and everything kind of fell apart for a little while. We moved into my grandparent's house in Rosemount and I really hated to leave LaSalle and all my friends there, especially Kevin Stashin and Karen Davidson. I enjoyed my time at J.F.K. The teachers were great and the old Reach For the Top gang will always live dearly in my heart forever. I'd love to hear from Lily Chatterjee, Consolato Gatuso, Maria Theresa Perone, Christine Perreira, Peter Gantous, Sharif Tarabay, Theresa Carluccio, Laura Ricci, Gaetano Geretto or anybody else for that matter!! I went to Vanier and did both a DSC in Pure & Applied and Health Sciences and spent quite a bit of time with Jenny Stewart whom I met while working at the Olympics back in '76. In those days, the fax machine was just coming in and we worked in the Olympic press room as fax operators. Fun times they were. While studying Chemical Engineering at McGill, I got a chance to work in the interior of the Ivory Coast one summer for Redpath Sugar. It was the first time I had ever left Canada and really opened my eyes to travel. Afterwards, I worked at Imperial Oil both in Toronto and Montreal during my summer holidays . I really didn't like McGill all that much, but I met 2 great guys, Domenic Mancuso and Domenic Pilla who I will always co...Expand for more
nsider to be my dearest friends. After graduation, I moved to Toronto, and took my MBA at York while working full time at CIL. In 1986, I met my future wife while on holiday by myself in Teneriffe. Nicky was a British nurse and was also on holiday with her roommate. We communicated regularly and then in 1989 I managed to convince a UK bank to take me on and move me to London. I relocated in 1989 and moved to Etchingham, a small town about 50 miles south of London with Nicky and we got married in 1995. I've got two great sons, Tommy and Michael and I live in the same house I originally moved into in 1990. I really hate moving! After getting kicked around and nearly worked to death in a number of investment banks, I eventually wound up working for myself as a management consultant back in 1997 and I've been on that path ever since. I still love music a great deal and listen to my system whenever I can. I really miss hockey and baseball, but with the Expos gone, it wouldn't be the same anyway. The boys love football (soccer) and we play Risk and chess just like I did when I was a kid with Kevin. We don't get a lot of snow in England, but I remember going down to that hill behind some of the flats in LaSalle Heights and sledding with the gang from Clement from dawn to dusk. Great guys like Larry Sweeney and Michel Provencher. It's hard to let go, isn't it?
