ReplyDeleteHere's a slightly Photoshopped version of the 25th Reunion photo. (View Large and Larger.) I included a link to a satellite image of the St Tommy neighborhood.

Dan and Denny - Thanks for identifying some of our classmates. I've updated the information on the post.
ReplyDeleteThe person to the left of Ray Mangan in the fourth row is Robert Parry. The tall person in the third row far right is Walter Renyhen.

Arnie - Thanks for the additions. Hope to see you at the reunion. I think we only have one more person who has not been identified. It is the gentleman furthest left in the fourth/back row.
ReplyDeleteI beleive that it is Tom O'Halleran
ReplyDeleteTom O'Halleran didn't respond to the 25th reunion "call" and I don't believe he attended. However, I have James Fitzgerald noted as paid. In looking very closely at the blurred nametag, I think it is James Fitzgerald. Then all who "paid" 25 years ago will be accounted for in the photo with the exception of Dan Carr and Janet Jankuski.
