H A P P Y B I R T H D A Y !!! I'd forgotten how much older you were than me :-)

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..  

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

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. 

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.

Joyce contacted me after the 20th reunion.  She hadn't attended but reached out to me afterward.  I was living in California at the time and we corresponded for a while and I did see her on a trip back to Bethesda.  Marc you are correct - she was a wondeful person and a great friend to me.  I miss her to this day.  I remember all of the good times when she was dating Johnny T..

Yes, that would be about the time he worked for the USPS.  I'm not sure exactly but he started after he finished his service in the Navy.  I'm not sure how long he worked there but it was at least a few years so 1975 would be about right.

Steve was a great friend and a funloving companion who enjoyed the outdoors all of his life.  He was the very proud father of two delighful children and the devoted husband of MaryAnn.  His humor and sense of play is sorely missed.
