I got cited in NYTimes above the fold for commuter conversations with Liz Warren.  https://taxprof.typepad.com/taxprof_blog/2019/08/ny-times-calvin-johnson-and-the-education-of-elizabeth-warren.html  Wonderful story but I should not be the lead.

Ed

I am so sorry to hear that you had been so ill but glad that you have recovered and continue to do so. 

I am so saddened to hear of Nino's death and am reminded of how very fragile life is, at any age but especially as we age. How we expect to just continue on and yet as Ed wrote we need to pay attention to the things that are not our usual. 

I have enjoyed the times I have been able to attend the small reunion in Florida, and that we may have one in White Plains in 2022.

Working at staying well, and enjoying the "summer" seasons of our lives.

Stay well, enjoy "summer"  

Hi Ed,

I am glad you are home and hope you recover quickly and fully to enjoy your life as it is.

All the best,

Felice

Nino passed away last week

The following piece of news was received today, July 6, 2019:

Sorry to hear of your travails; glad to hear of your recovery. Stay healthy, my friend as it gets harder each passing year.

My whole point is this message is to urge my classmates to take care of your health.

Like most of us, I turned 75 this year.  (My body may be 75 but my mind is still 25!)  I had a couple of health scares in June which made me realize how fragile we are as we age.  First was a pneumonia , which put me in the hospital for a week.

Next came the scary one.  Once I got home from the hospital, I was weak and could barely get around.  My daughter and grandson came up for a few days to help.  Being a Type II diabetic (another wonderful condition), I needed to check my blood suger and do my insulin injections before dinner.  While doing that, all of a sudden I was having extreme difficulties breathing (I have COPD, another wonderful condition).  My daughter called 911 and I then spent 8 days in the hospital being treated for fluid in my lungs and atrial fibrillation.  Home now recovering. 

So - listen to your body!  At the slightest sign that something is not right, get it checked out.  A

Stay well, and hope to see everyone at the 60th if we have one.

So very sorry I could not join you all for the luncheon this year at the Waterway in Palm Beach Gardens.  I truly enjoyed seeing all the pictures that were posted and wish you all good health....

Sincerely,

Mary (Prulello) Jorgensen

    The weather was perfect, the food fantastic, and the company....the best.  Once again our valedictorian hostess, Jacquie Gabbe Goldman, organized a great get together at the Waterway Cafe in Palm Beach Gardens.
