The 63rd anniversary of our Saints graduation

 The 63rd anniversary of our Saints graduation was celebrated on Thursday, July 20th at the Matunuck Oyster Bar in South Kingston. 

The attendees included (in order in the photo) on the left side of the table, Jim Doane and wife, Bill Murray , Ray Baril and wife, Andy Loughlin and wife , Tom O’Brien and his wife and Tom Raczelowski. On the right side of the table was Dot Murray (unfortunately not in the picture), my wife Jeddy McCarthy, Paul and Maureen Dalpe, Dave Shallcross and his wife, Frank Mooney and his wife and , last but not least, Bill Farley.

The discussions ranged from talk of old teachers, who was on what team, classmates who were living elsewhere, what we’ve been doing for the last 60 years, old events which should never be put in writing and, of course, the latest health conditions including new joints, stents, operations and accidental falls. 

 We learned of new developments of absent classmates, but thankfully, learned of no recent deaths.

 Fortunately, Andy Loughlin was his usual shy retireing self and only paused in his storytelling long enough to allow his end of the table to come up for air.

   All in all, we throughly enjoyed the day and decided by acclimation to do it again next year, same time same place. So, mark your calendars.
