hey Ken, welcome to our Essex forum! It's about time you visited, considering your engineering company incorporates Essex in its name. Isn't it Essex Engineering Co? I wonder where the word comes from? Webster's says it's a county in S.E. England. Yes Ken, I/we encourage prayer here. As the self appointed cyberpastor of the boysweekend.com site (and boy do we need it over there!) I always accept prayer requests. Feel free to post them publicly, or e-mail me privately. By the way, be sure to sign the guestbook and include your websites and addresses. Also, let other people know about this site. Who needs classmates.com, when we have a more personal way to stay in touch with each other, here at ejhs76.com.

I don't remember the blue 'vette at Hiawatha, but Jean Claude Guillon (building trades) had a white one, as I remember; this guy was amazing. I remember him telling us how he went awol from the French Army and learned English on the streets of New York, by reading the classified section of the NY Times. Seven years later, he was living the American dream, teaching building trades in Vermont with a bachelor pad in Charlotte and a corvette. To a seventeen year old boy, this was pure inspiration!

I feel left out having grown up on Pleasant Street. I dont know that side of town!! But we had Tip Top on Railroad Ave. when we walked to Summit Street School. I vividly reemmber that! I used to play in the orchestra with Alan, so am happy to hear he is doing well! I still play bass, a little with the middle school band in South Hero where I teach k-8 French, but I mostly sing now (usually contemporary Christian music with a group out of Community Lutheran in S. Burlington and with Tim)!!
Did anyone work on creating the Discovery Museum?? I read that Dick Emerick died a week or so ago. I remember painting the shutters with Mark when we were putting it together!!
