Kelly’s son graduated from Akron with a Master’s in Exercise Science and Physiology.

Irma was happy to be going golfing.

George was happy to be having this writer taking notes for the Tri-Gear.

Nancy was happy that her grand-daughter was able to get a teaching position at NYU, to have enjoyed a wonderful Mother’s Day, and to have another grand-daughter graduating college.

Pat Little was happy to be going fishing and is promising the club a dollar for every fish caught.

Brittany was happy to have gone to the Warwick Valley Winery.

Lisa Peck passed along the sad news that she is being transferred to Hackensack but was happy for her daughter’s being named to second team All-County in lacrosse.

Steve Hopper was happy for Kelley and that he was about to go on a weekend camping trip with his son’s Scout troop.

PE Bob was happy for his upcoming date night and golf with his wife, for Mother’s Day, and for the chance to see a St. John’s baseball game.
