John's Story
Attached picture shows my brothers: Charlie '59, David '60, Bill '64 and myself.
After Cathedral, I went to Maryknoll Seminary for two years. Transferred to Salem State and graduated in '66. Got married. Started teaching in Saugus until deferment ran out. Joined Navy and went to OCS in Newport, then stationed in Oakland CA for two years and returned to teaching. Adopted a boy in '72 and a girl in '75. Taught eighth grade English in Saugus until '82. Owned a gift shop in Salem. Mid-life crisis crashed in around then and separated, ultimately divorced. Wandered, but not lost.

Happily holding a part-time job with an orthotic and prosthetic company in Beverly, enjoying the grandkids on a regular basis and trying to keep up with my daughter and son as they wend their way through life. Egads!!!
Looking forward to our 50th.
