Fun lunch but on a sad day -September 11

Apparently it's the delicious food as well as convenient location that keeps us coming back to Dooney's Pub.

Great to see everyone, as always. All are welcome to join us next month on October 23. :-)

Summertime

I missed you all and hope you had a great summer!
What have you been up to?
In Delran friends related activities, I saw The Cher Show in New York City with Marcia Konieczka

and visited with Wilma and Harry Kaelin while Tom and I were in Florida last week.

I am looking forward to seeing some of you on Wednesday, September 11th at 12:30 at Dooney's Pub in Delran.

With school starting next week, my thoughts turn to not having to get ready for it and maybe heading to Seaside to celebrate that fact.

Marcia and I are thinking of going there Thursday, September 5th. Who wants to join us??? :-)   

Skipping August?

Thanks to all who were able to join us for our July lunch. It was great seeing everyone.

Barbara, not me, Shirley, Judie, Rosina, Barbara, Marcia, Jean, Peg, Ron, John

No date is set for August. We'll make the next one for early in September.....How about Seaside for the first day of school???? Just a thought.....

Happy summer!

It seems July is a busy month for not being around town. Nonetheless, we are looking forward to our upcoming Dooney's lunch this coming week.

I was happy to get together with some of our retired Millbridge colleagues earlier this month. They say hi!

So how about this wild summer weather? I hope you have all been keeping cool and having fun despite the hot, humid, rain, wind (tornadoes!). Feel free to share your good times with us in comments below! :-)

A new crop of retirees

I always enjoy attending the annual DEA Retirement event. This year's lunch was no exception.
I appreciate the yearly invitation from the Delran officers.

The photos from this year's event are on the shutterfly share site I still keep up for Delran:

I hope they will consider joining our DEAR Friends group!

I was especially pleased to see that Rosemary Ghegan Larson received the Paraprofessional of the Year Award. She was in my first fifth grade class when I started teaching in Delran!
