The "Corner" will forever be the only Detroit ball yard for me. I envy Boston and Chicago and their commitment to the historical purity of "America's National Pasttime" by keeping, restoring,...

I totally agree, aoife. He's the very best example of a Catholic priest.

Well said, KR.

You know, that surprises me that I never knew that. You were always so confident and self-assured!

I think that probably a good thing - not that he's probably a serial killer, but that you don't know what happened to him. What an incredibly horrific story to tell a kid just to get her out of the...

Geez, Jean - that's a "life" time story. No doubt, good old "Frank" would never be far from mind! - or nightmare! Glad your sister didn't marry that one! I wonder if he's met the "Most Wanted"...

We "won" goldfish at the 1st St. Jude Mardi Gras in 2007 and they're still alive - I wonder if the planners fished them out of the big goldfish tank at Kresges? We always seem to come home with one...

I'm sure you're right about Frank, I don't remember him - but just the reference to "Go Go". Wasn't the incinerator in the playground square between 4-100 and the gym? I remember watching them out...

It was a Walter Gogolewski, for sure - don't remember the Bartilino. We did have a priest, Fr. Charles DeSantis from 1953- 1955

Whoops, I meant Lindhurst, not Fordham. Yes, Mrs. Sullivan was the "Grandma" of us all! What about janitor Frank Gogolewski - wasn't he there for ages? His daughter still comes to Mass at St....

WOW - I don't remember the office being paneled when it was in the connecting hall, but it WAS paneled when it was in the office off of 7 mile road. Does anyone remember when the office moved? Mrs....

It has been fascinating to assemble an Anniversary memory book. It's a work still in progress, but I was glad to read that the original renovation plans called for the painting over of all the...

Looking at the brand new windows and doors, newly poured concrete around the school and a "campus" like appearance will certainly enhance the value of our parish property and hopefully bring us more...

St. Jude web site has been up-dated to include some details on the new school administration. I know folks find it sad that it's no longer "St. Jude School" - however, some of those folks never saw...

The event will be held on October 29th. There will be a concelebrated Mass at 4:00pm with the Anniversary/Reunion/Silent Auction held immediately after at the Harper Woods Community Center. Tickets...

that's right, I'll be a published author! darn the luck, Oprah's book club is history, and I'll have a best seller on my hands!

I just typed up the page for former nuns and priests and tried to visualize them. I had forgotten so many! I'm up to page 70 of our Anniversary book and I still keep going! I'll never get this to...

I think the only nun I remember in the short dress was Sister Joyce, though Sr. Marie Christine wore a modified veil. When we graduated, it was still during the transition time. At Regina, the nuns...

We never had the music on the good humor trucks - just the row of bells that the driver would pull!
I forgot about the "sanding of the books" too! I do remember washing all the blackboards on/near...

Ok, where are the St. Jude Slackers?

I remember the florist that held out to the bitter end at across from Chatham's on the N side of Morang - when they built the Burger King. It ended up just closing.
I think we bought a few trees...

ahh, Ross Drugs, was too "blue" for me - I was thinking of the drug store across the street from Indian Village Cleaners. I remember the butcher shop too - and also the one that was a Parkgrove and...

Yes, KR, shoe repair WAS around that corner. I remember going with my Dad to get his shoes re-soled, or Mom's purse sewn if it ripped.

Was Ross Drugs ever re-named "Morang Drugs"? Was it next to the Henney Penny Chicken Place?

Supreme Drugs - was our "Merits" on Hayes just S of 7.
