6/29/99 Hi Glenn and ECR's: Woo! have you brought up some memories here. Particularly with St. Peters on Lyons Avenue. I was there back in late 50's. Several years ago, I wrote away for my records and got school records only but I'm satisfied, its still a part of my history. Thanks for sharing. patty mccoy therealmac1817@email.msn.com -----Original Message----- From: Glenn G.
