What's New

Steve, thanks for getting this started.  Many of us have very fond memories of Mike.  Some of my favorite remembrances of him are around our trips to the "sanitarium" in Baltimore when he had TB.  We went pretty regularly while he was there.  I think I can also say that he and Sample had two of the best "rakes" at BCC.  Lord knows how or when that haircut became popular but my mother forbid me from getting a fresh cut before my senior picture..

Many years since Mrs. howe's Biology class. Hope you have had a great life. Have a beautiful birthday. Steve

Happy Birthday Pete. It has been a long time since we spoke. I hope you have had a good career. I haven't seen you since Frostburg. I retired from teaching special education 4 years ago. I tried administration but it was too negative for me. I enjoyed working with the kids, but 43 years was enough. Drop me a line sometime so we can talk. Steve

Wishing you a happy birthday and a great 2018. Steve

Happy Birthday - didn't know your were a Leo too ;-)

Happy Birthday Kathy. Its been 50+ years since we have spoken.
life goes far too quickly. This is a picture of me and my wife, Dee, that was taken at our 50th class reunion last June. I retired 3 years ago after teaching special education for 43 years. It was an enjoyable run but I prefer retirement.

Wishing you a happy birthday Pete. A lot of years have passed since I last saw you. Drop me a line and lets get reacquainted. Steve

Hey guy missed u at reunion. Still have the house in Rockville/Potomac area, but spend 99% in our condo on the Susquehanna River north of Baltimore. Hope all well by u and the family. Steve

Although I didn't move to Bethesda until the 8th grade at Leland, I also lived in GF after we started BCC - right on Hampden Lane across from the triangle.  I have connected with Eldon and let him know of Donn's passing. I have very fond memories of that neighborhhod.  My parents lived there for over 20 years.  

Please let others know of Donn's passing; his roots to that neighbothood go way back.  And "HI" to you both. 

Donn lived a couple of blocks from me so we spent a lot of time kicking around Bethesda together as youngsters....I remember the time he freewheeled his bike down the steep hill on York road at brack neck speed only to t-bone a car, leaving himself in the hospital and having to recuperate at home for a week or so....but what I remembe best is the time in the 6th grade at Bethesda Elementry when Donn perforrned his Elvis Presley imitation in front of the class, lip-syncing to "Hound Dog" while gyrating and swiveling just as Elvis did, and I said to myself,

"This guy is going to have no problem getting chicks"

Happy Birthday Mike, It was great seeing you at the reunion this past summer. Hopefully we might get together next time I get ti DC.Have a great day and Happy Hanukkah.

The "In memory" form combined some information so this post is a a bit incorrect.  Donn's residence at the time of his death was Stanardsville, Va. - outside of Charlottesville.

I believe that poet Maya Angelou said it best when she said "People will forget what you said. People will forget what you did. But people will never forget how you made them feel." Our time at B-CC was gone in a flash as have the last 50 years, but our memories are with us forever.
