Susie, Thank you so much for your birthday greeting. Can you believe we have made it to 76. Oh so many memories from Beth El...You were a big part of that. Even the trading comic books. :-) Flip
It is with deep sadness I learned of the passing of Janet. Janet always made a positive impact to her roots in Phoenix and made tremendous contibutions to the Jewish community. She never waiverd from doing Mitzvahs for others, and her memory will be remembered by those that loved her.

Hi Ben,
Early in 1990 Sandy and I were having an open house and invited Stan, my Bar Mitzvah freind to our house. He did not show up and a few dayslater found out from Jerry Kosowsky Stan had a heart attack that evening. His health deteriated and he needed a heart transplant. Stan was adopted and Florence his mom was still alive when he passed away on December 31st 1991. He had two daughters with Maureen and later married Georglyn. Stan had a great sense of humor and a very kind soul. From the age of about 12 through college at PC and then ASU we remained friends. As I write this note I can hear him saying hey Five ( short for Fivel)

As the years pass it is interesting that I feel more like my parents generation than our high school selves. With the continued passing of friends and family from our generation the window closes, yet we still have today to make a difference. I hope you Rich and family are all doing well.

I remeber Cliff form AZA days. I am sorry for his passing. A life lived well far beyond our short encounters in school and Jewish events. I guess we all have lives far beyond growing up in Phoenix, or maybe because we did grow up in Phoneix. Sorry for Cliffs passing, but the legacy will stay in my mind and heart.

So sad . Only great memories of Eddie and AZA. Eddie did the fun risky things I always wished I had the guts to do....Motorcycles

Susie,
Well I guess at t3 a few days doesn't matter much at this stage. I hope all is well with your family. How many grandchildren, and if so do any live in Phoenix? EVERYTHING here is fine. Three grandchildren, 2 in KC and i in Boston. I am still teaching full time at UMKC.(University of Missouri Kansas City) Been there 11 years now and hope to continue for years to come. Sandy retired from the classroom like you and now teaches at Rockhurst University and mentors student teachers. She loves still connecting to the classroom.
Love Flip
