We received so many wonderful messages from classmates both before and after our 40th reunion weekend that, with permission, we wanted to share them. Thank you to everyone! Here's to keeping the memories alive and creating new ones too!
Thank you for the effort you and the reunion team are putting into making this event special. I shall not be joining everyone, but would like to pass on my best wishes, and hopes that everyone from our H.S. Class (and their guests) have a wonderful evening together. ~ Tony Baker
I will be in France most of September thus unable to attend. Sending warm wishes to each of my classmates. ~ Mark Polansky
After my grade 9 year, I transferred to Catholic Memorial HS in West Roxbury and graduated in 1985. From there, I attended Marquette University from which I completed my Bachelor of Arts degree. While at university, I met my wife Therese— we’ve been together 35 years and have four adult children. After Marquette, we spent close to a decade living in Montreal where I completed my medical degree and residency training at McGill University. Since 2001, we have lived in the Interior of British Columbia where I practice emergency medicine. We live close to a large provincial park and count bears, cougars, and eagles as neighbours. Due to geographic distance and prior commitments, I am unfortunately unable to attend the upcoming class reunion. Please send my best to our former classmates and wishes for a wonderful reunion. ~ Mike Concannon
I spoke with Jack Cort the other day to send word that I am unable to make it to our class reunion, as I will be in Portugal visiting with my father for his birthday. I will be there from September 15- September 27th. (There were unfortunately no other available flight dates in the month of September for the length of visit I was hoping to have with him.) I am so sorry to miss you all. I am sending all of you my love, joy and support. Jackie will be saying “hello” to all of you from me…and he knows how to reach me in Los Angeles, California if anyone would like to be in touch. I am thinking of everyone in our class, and I hope you know my memories of so many of you make me smile and laugh often. Lots of love to everyone in the Class of 1984 from Weston, MA. ~ Harley Pryor (Jill Savitz-Pryor)
Everything was beautiful and was quite a success! You did an incredible job! We are grateful for all your hard work! ~ Kim Healey Flynn
A very memorable evening for sure and great to connect with old friends after 40+ years. Had a great time with you all and could not believe how quickly the evening went by. Fun to be around some old buds and appreciate all the hard work and the incredible efforts you put into making it such a special event for so many folks. ~ E-4 Twining

Memories are just the mind's active choices out of an infinite number of possibilities. I wanted to thank everyone who came tonight for bringing back some old ones and creating some great new ones. I especially wanted to thank the reunion committee who did such an AMAZING job. The venue, the event, the weather and most importantly, the company...it was all fantastic. Thank you! With deepest appreciate and gratitude. ~ Vinny Chiang
A very special night indeed...this was my first reunion in decades. Why? No discernible reason. I'll be back for 45. And all you guys are a damned good-looking bunch of 50-somethings! ~ Mark Retik
A great turn out, and great to see everyone! Hats off to the committee members for the hard work in organizing our reunion. ~ Chris Hesse
Thank you for bringing us all together and for all of your hard work that made the special evening possible. ~ Susan Sandler Brennan
I just wanted to take a minute to thank you and the whole reunion planning team for all the great work you did in putting together the reunion. It was exceptionally well done and a great chance to reconnect with old friends and share old memories. I particularly enjoyed the additional activities like the tour of the high school and the Dairy Joy and appreciated the team planning for more than just the one evening to connect. ~ David Norquist
Thank you! The venue was perfect. Well done on all your communications, organizing, pivoting and putting it together! ~ Katie King
