St. Mel High School Class of 1964 - 50th Reunion

Since so many STA graduates attended St. Mel High School, the following message from Carl Alaimo, St. Mel High School Class of 1964, is shared here.

Hello,

Just wanted to take a moment to let you know that the St Mel High School Class of 1964 is celebrating its 50th year anniversary this year. The class will be recognized at the St Mel reunion banquet to be held Friday, June 6th, 2014 at White Eagle Restaurant. More information will be sent out in a mailer in just a few weeks.

A few of the 1964 graduates meet last night at the Christian Brothers of the Midwest office in Burr Ridge, IL. Those present were Pat Kenny, Thomas “Mick” Hyland, Arnie Carlstrom, Mike Carbonara, Ray Redding, and myself. While I’ll admit we spent most of our time talking about our classmates and the Brothers, Rob Cummings, St Mel Alumni Director, attempted to keep us on track for our assignment.

We have a roster of 328 graduates containing the usual ID information. We will be making calls and sending out mailings to those we have been able to verify through our contacts etc.  I have been informed by my kids that the social media is the way to go to find your friends, so I am addressing this email as a start to the addresses we have on record. We know some of the database needs to be corrected from our own personal contacts with classmates.

I hope you can help us with contact information, and information in general about our classmates, and even let us know if we may see you June 6th at a private cocktail reception set up for the Class of 1964. 

You may recall just a couple of names of friends who have passed, John “Jack” Ryan was killed in Viet Nam, William “Bill” Hibbler was a Judge at 26th and California, the Cook County Criminal Courts, Chicago, promoted to a U.S. Federal Judge and passed in 2012. Perhaps you know of others from our class who lost their lives serving our Country, as did Jack. We could make mention of our fallen heroes at our reunion, as well as those who have pasted. Information on deceased class members, information to assist us with the database would be invaluable given our short time frame to the event.

Thanks for taking time to send us any information that would be helpful in contacting and/or correcting our 1964 Class data base.

Hope to hear from you and perhaps see you at the Reunion,

Carl Alaimo

P.S. If you would be available to help us stuff envelops etc. we are meeting again at the Midwest Office of the Christian Brothers on March 3rd at 3pm. Call the office for directions and talk with Rob or Megan for easy directions 630-323-3725 or email Rob at rcummings@cbmidwest.org
