Happy! Happy! Happy! Have a blessed day! And many more!
Sewell and I were in cub scouts together - probably a Webeloes den. We met at his house on Washington Street off Glenwood Avenue. His house was right next to the train tracks. As I remember it was a huge yard and they had chickens roaming around. A very special place for 10 year olds to play.
Later in life we ran into each other at political events. I believe he lived out in the Marsh Creek area near Wendell during that time.
It was good to see him at our last reunion. I think I can say with confidence that Sewell as a man of conviction who lived his beliefs. Rest in peace my friend.
Felix was always the fastest kid in our after-school football games down between Wayland Dr and Cambridge way up on the hill.
I didn't see you at the 50th! Would love to catch up!
Happy Birthday!
Felix! Happy Birthday! They seem to come too quickly but I'm sure you appreciate that they keep coming! Celebrate!
Yesterday was Buzzy's birthday. How would have been 69.
Buzzy was my childhood best friend - all through Sherwood Bates and Daniels. We were inseparable. We even produced a neighborhood event called the B & B Circus complete with bike tricks, dog tricks and I'm not sure what else. I don't remember whether anyone other than our parents came. It really didn't matter.
Not having anything else to do one summer day, Buzzy and I got out our snow sleds and slid down this steep (but short) pine straw covered hill (off Banbury Rd) and tumbled into a dry creek bed. It was fast and no one got hurt or cold! Summer fun!
Buzzy was the last of his immediate family - his younger brother and both parents passed before he did. The last time I saw him was down at Morehead City as he was leaving Captain Bill's Restaurant one evening.
Watching the sunrise on Bogue Sound yesterday morning, Buzzy came to mind. A good friend and good memories. You left us too soon!
Happy birthday! We missed you at the 50TH! Have you a great day!
Hi Danny! Thanks for joining in the Alumni page. Look forward to hearing more about the last 50 years!
