PSH CLASS OF '59 SNOWBIRD REUNIONS IN FL: THE START OF A TRADITION.

The idea has been there, but to date only in thought. It is time to start what will be an annual event. Other PSH classes have similar reunions with great success. PSH '59 is the most active of all classes so we will assuredly continue to build on our connections and friendships. This year we will start small, attempt to make it as easy as possible for everyone to attend and thus allow us to gather your thoughts and ideas for the future. The PSH Florida Reunion tradition has begun with roaring successes. A small, but happy gathering was held in Orlando last November. We were happy to have Jim Peroni (`60) attend with his wife, our classmate, Nancy Koska Peroni. Jim passed away a couple months later, but our lives are fuller today for having seen him at the gathering. Nancy is doing OK, thanks to the support of her wonderful family and many friends. Attendees for our Orlando reunion were: Len Besednik, Joni Schloss Besednik, Jim Sidor (`60), Donna Umstott Werner, Bob Werner, Karla Tommasini, Bruno Tommasini, Kathy Kilroy Sidor, Nancy Koska Peroni, Jim Peroni

An unplanned gathering in Ft. Myers was held in November. It was a delightful day spent with some who were otherwise unable to attend the other planned events. This happy group includes: Bruno Tommasini, Karla Tommasini, Rich Klym, Gina Klym, Donna Umstott Werner, Bob Werner, Don (Ihor) Urbansky, Nancy Urbansky

Finally, Punta Gorda, Florida was invaded by the Parma gang, twenty-two of them. They enjoyed lunch and hours of reminiscing on a delightful February day. The gang consisted of the following: Kathy Kilroy Sidor, Angi Zaccardelli, Patti Petrash Martin, Karla Tommasini, Terri Moorhouse, Nina Schmidt, Sandy Robinson Wright (`60), Donna Umstott Werner, Bob Werner, Len Besednik, Austin Moorhouse, Tim Wright, Richard Panko, Darryl Kay, Jim Sidor (`60), Chuck Sikula, Ron Schmidt, Jan St. Martin Panko, Bruno Tommasini, Joni Schloss Besednik, Pat Latavish Macha, Patti Sikula
