[NFB-Seniors] : Hello,

Fri Nov 20 08:34:01 UTC 2020

Hey Catherine,
   My name is Paul and I enjoyed reading your post. I am originally from Silver Spring and Sligo Creek made it into my high school alma mater, so your post reminded me of my hometown, But now I reside in Florida. I was supposed to return this past October for my 50th reunion, but thanks to Covid that got pushed back at least a year, so anybody reading this definitely knows that I fit into the seniors group.
Thanks for reminding me of times gone by and greetings to all of the other members in the seniors affiliate.
