Happy Thanksgiving from Karen

This is a message from Karen Leonardi.

Hello Everyone,

Recently I had the opportunity to visit our website and noticed that there has been no postings on our website blog lately, so in an attempt to keep our website (that Lee has worked so very long hours to create and maintain) I am posting a blog and for me this is long overdue. For those that have sent , called or offered condolences regarding my mom, I thank you. I also thank Lee for adding the recent obituaries to the website as I did not know of a few that appeared there. It appears that I’m not alone with a great loss and sadness this year, especially with the Thanksgiving Holiday being next week and the Christmas Holidays right around the corner, there have been many losses of parents, but there is a good part, we are all still here to pass on what our parents and teachers taught us, it’s called Traditions.

I am most saddened by not seeing any recent pics of Jay’s grandson Aidan, there’s an oldie from one of our old blogs, who knows, maybe he’s in grade school, or possibly high school by now, but it won’t be Bishop O’Reilly, now did I say that, who knows, maybe he’s in preschool and has a little girlfriend by now, It would be nice to see new pictures of Aidan and any other grandchildren he may have increased in the Tobias household, even recent Halloween pictures would be nice. I would really like to see some happy and uplifting stuff by now, It would be nice for a change. Aidan if you see this, please tell Grandpa Jay we need to see some new pictures of the first grandchild of the Class of 1977, maybe some others would post and we can all pass on our Traditions to Aidan. Jay, Aidan is soooo cute, how could you not add newer pics, bad grandpa.

For all others that have not posted, I know there’s facebook out there too, I recently added my name, but I still come back to this website, it’s like going back home and you never get bored of it. Even though it sounds like I’m singling Jay out, but I'm not, no one is free of this, Bruce & Beverly, c’mon, get with the program, I’m sure everyone would love to hear and see pictures of Adam, he’s doing great, but I’ll let them tell us more, our 1977 Class is so great, we could have a good little soap opera going on here, I’m sure Mark Hession could tell a lot, anyway, I’m waiting to hear from all of you and Aidan, I’m waiting for a new picture!!!!

Hmmmm, maybe I should have written all of this to Sister Heloise??????

PS: Happy Thanksgiving Everyone…Cluck, Cluck!!!
