holyfamilyhs@aol.com - Jan 2, 2009 I wish you all a very happy New Year, may you all be healthy, prosperous and blessed. What would make my new year much happier is if I received the DVD of our reunion, it has been 2 1/2 months, long enough to make so many copies. What's up??

jnrloeffler@verizon.net - Dec 1, 2008 Thanks to all those who worked so hard to make the reunion another success. It was great to see the "regulars" from the Class of '62 who have been been attending the reunions. There were fewer, but we got to really talk and enjoy the evening. I'm really sorry that we did not come early enough to take the EXTENSIVE tour that was offered this year. Last reunion, we were limited to the lunchroom and the gym. I heard they went to the roof this year. Bummer! T

320.
Jimandlu308@aol.com - Nov 25, 2008 This is Lu Naughton, again. Now I remember. I said goodbye to you and I asked you what your last name was and I thought you said Dines. I thought you said Ridgefield Park and that you were in the book.
319.
Jimandlu308@aol.com - Nov 24, 2008 I am looking forward to hearing from you either by email or this message board. If you don't have a computer, I hope somebody will see this message and get in touch with you.

Jimandlu308@aol.com - Nov 24, 2008 Jim said your maiden name is Eisenburg. If you see this message, please respond to it as I would like to get in touch with you. I guess you would see our email address when this comes up on the screen.
316.
Jimandlu308@aol.com - Nov 24, 2008 I thought when I asked what your last name was, you said Dine something but when I put it in, nothing came up. I can't remember what you said but again I think it was Dine something.
315.
Jimandlu308@aol.com - Nov 24, 2008 The reason I haven't gotten back to you is this house keeps me busy and I haven't had time to go on this message board. You told me that you live in Ridgefield or Ridgefield Park and that you were in the telephone book.
314.
Jimandlu308@aol.com - Nov 24, 2008 This is Lu Naughton, Jim Naughton's wife. This message is for Diane who sat at our table. I hope that you have a computer and also the Internet and you see this message. I told you that I would keep in touch before we left the reunion.

302.
edjeanbuja@comcast.net - Oct 17, 2008 To Jelg@aol.com On this past Tuesday we tried to book a room at the hampton Inn and was told that there was no such arrangements for Holy Family reunion group and when we asked to speak to the Manager we were told they were all filled up for that evening, We really believe that this gal was just trying to put us off and didn't want to deal with the situation. So we went over to the Crown Plaza and booked a room there. We appreciated all the trouble that you

JELG@AOL.COM - Oct 17, 2008 it seems few indivials availd themselves of the Hampton Inn secauucs rates. The opporunity for a 129.00 rate has lapsed due to minimal interst and a shrinking inventory of rooms at te hotel due to growing reservations from general public. Rate has increased to 189.00

jimandlu308@aol.com - Sep 28, 2008 Hi, this is Lu, Jim Naughton's wife. I just wanted to answer the question about the hotels. Union City itself doesn't have any hotels but there is a hotel in Lincoln Harbor. When you go into Lincoln Harbor, there is a hotel on your right. Lincoln Harbor is the development by the Lincoln Tunnel, hence the name Lincoln Harbor. There is also another hotel as you are coming up from Route 3. It used to be the Holiday Inn, now it is, I think, called the Days In

tombro1414@yahoo.com - Aug 19, 2008 JUST A THOUGHT. I SEE THAT A GREAT NUMBER OF PEOPLE ARE CONCERNED ABOUT WHETHER OTHER PEOPLE FROM THEIR PARTICULAR CLASS ARE COMING. I GRADUATED IN 1967 IN A CLASS OF ABOUT 70. FROM THE TIME I ARRIVED IN SEPTEMBER OF 63, BECAUSE HFHS WAS SUCH A SMALL HS, I GOT TO KNOW MOST EVERYONE IN THE BUILDING AT ANY GIVEN TIME. 7 GRADUATING CLASSES (64 THRU 70) TIMES 70 EQUALS 490 PEOPLE. BE THE FIRST FROM YOUR CLASS TO SIGN UP AND WE CAN TELL OTHERS. JUST A THOUGHT.

ebbsoft@optonline.net - Jul 4, 2008 It appears that the Holy Family Reunion website is fully functional again since it went down when our web hosting company changed webservers.

And Mrs. Kane telling me I was a good boy but just a little bit too highstrung. Of course, I took offense until I looked up the word "highstrung" in the dictionary and found it wasn't insulting at a

St. Al's HS in Jersey City, the home of Vinnie Ernst, was notified the Archdiocese will be closing it at the end of the 2007 school year. St Al's may have been 84 years old. I remeber tuition in the peeriod 1958 to 1962 was $15.00 a month; perhaps for only 10 months a year No summer payment??? St Al's may presently cost $5000.00 per year and could hv risen to $7000.00 if they had attempted to keep it open.
