Hi Robyn, The pleasure was mine, as far as the apartment numbers, if I change that picture I lose the comments so I decided not to continue making changes and let people add their comments under the pictures. The next reunion is in 3 years, or so I am told. If you know different please tell me when you get the details so I can post it. Julio

Hello Julio
We met on the boat ride 2004. Our apartment number has not been added correctly, it should be first #3A and then 5E (247 West 61st Drive). It was a pleasure meeting you and Pat Mann, hope to see you next year.

Hello everyone....

This is a great site! My sister Rose Mary Hilerio and I lived at 250 W. 61st Street in apartment 4C next to the Ocasio and Urrutia family. We have great memories of our childhood living there. Recently attended the reunion of the class of 1969 at St. Paul the Apostle with my sister and had a great time. I am planning to attend the reunion on September 18th with my husband so that I can see some of my classmates from 1970. It should be fun.
