Norma Carruth (Soldati)
Greetings to my former classmates. I am SO SORRY I can't join you at this special weekend. You can be sure that my thoughts will be with you all.
When I think back on the early days, there are certain moments I especially remember; for example: dancing school at the Unitarian church. After fiinishing 6 years of classes, we had a 'ball' to celebrate. Joyce Spooner, Mike and Mark Bobola and I performed the 'Charleston' after weeks of intense practice.
I remember the many parties that I had in the cellar of our house. My parents were upstairs (if we needed them) and we were downstairs and danced to 45 rpm records.
I remember Brownes drug store in the center of town on Sunday mornings. Many of us attended our respective church service and then met at Brownes drug store afterwards. Remember the soda-fountain and the orange or cherry cokes?
I remember performing 'Amahl and the Night Visitors' in the Unitarian church.
I'm sure sure you will add to this small list when you get together. Enjoy your walks down 'Memory Lane'.
Take care and God bless you all.
Norma
