Long time . We remember your brick house on Euclid street in Delmar, NY

Our daughter, Jennifer, played there . She is now 40 and a social worker
for Gateway managed care of Pittsburgh PA . She is in the process of adopting
a little girl who is 2 1/2 through foster care . A long row to hoe . She has
cared for Savanna (no ‘H’) since getting her to care for at 3 mos.
Our son, Wayne, now 37, was a computer programmer/analyst at SUNY Albany for 8 years eight years when his unit was disolved and is now working for Walgreen pharmacy .
We were so relieved at finding your website and finding that Anne and
Sarah are both OK and doing very well. I remember how Anne was ill
and you had to put her in seclusion whenever anyone nearby would contract
an illness (measles?) Vaila and I are good – - I (Ed) am retired from
Bethlehem school in Delmar as a custodial worker, and Vaila continues
working as an audit clerk for office of state comptroller in Albany, hoping
to retire in three years .
We would enjoy very much hearing from you, tho we can see you are a
very busy person, involved in some very exciting, rewarding work .
