Hi Guys,
Nice turnout for lunch with 14 in attendence.
Jim Dimond, Dave Britz, Dave Tyree, Larry Moser, Tom Troskey, Dick Butler, Mike Gaida, Tom Schleck, Joe M McGrath, Joe Schufman, Ed Kurhajetz, Dave Moore, Brian Dobie, John Runyon.
We talked a bit about how the hockey and basketball teams at CDH are doing—-both quite well.
Also, about CDH’s new web site, take a look and click all over the place because it is filled with interesting items from what is going on in the school today to how the school came to be and the history of the Christian Brothers and Sisters of St Joseph.
Our classmate Steve Nachtsheim has offered some men’s basketball tickets for the University of St Thomas men’s home games to his Cretin classmates, Steve a graduate of St Thomas and life long supporter of the University who lives in California has 4 season tickets to their games but as you can imagine can not attend all the games. These are legacy club tickets—-VERY NICE—-
So,if you are interested in seeing the Division 1 men’s basketball team in the brand new arena contact Steve at stephen@nachtsheim.com THANK YOU STEVE.
Many of you are aware that the St Thomas Academy class of 63 also meets on the second Thursday of each month at the Pool & Yacht Club and we converse with them regularly. One of their members (Mike Byrne) brought a photo Christmas card he got from one of his life long friends who lives in North Carolina——that friend is also a member of our Cretin class of 63—-It was Tony Tuk and his beautiful family.
Thank you to Mike and it was great to see the photo of Tony and his family.
There are two photos with this email showing John Runyon holding a copy of a March of 1963 Comment . John was a page editor on the Comment staff. The other photo is of a cartoon drawn by our classmate Len Mitsch. Len, and a couple of other talented classmates always had drawing in the Comment. The other artists as I recall were Greg Ridge, Jim Szalapski and I think Bill Jack.
All editions of the Comment are Joe M McGrath’s and I just have them in my possession to share with you guys in these class updates. —-THANK YOU JOE
Thanks guys, that’s all for now, next meeting is Thursday February12th.
Tom Troskey
