The comeback of NORWIN 65 Lunch was successful once again. We had 26 join us for lunch at Siena at Norwin. The food was wonderful and the company was even better. Before lunch was over there were many requests to repeat at Siena’s next month. Enjoy the pictures and start planning to attend next month on August 19th.

As promised, the Norwin Class of ‘65 FINALLY got our monthly lunches restarted! We met at Abruzzi’s Restaurant June 17th for a most delightful afternoon. Can you believe we had 33 join us for a great day of good food and real conversations. The consensus was it felt so wonderful to be able to see, hug and talk to everyone after such a long time with no interactions.
For those of you who couldn’t join us for the fun, I am including some photos of the crowd. It was a definite record setting afternoon. I hope to see you ALL back next month at a location to be announced.

We don’t have to say much before there is at least a 90% agreement that the past 14-15 months has been one of the worst periods any of us have lived through. The class of 1965 abandoned our monthly lunches after February 2020. I personally grew tired of putting yet another picture on the “In Memory” page. Since the beginning we have lost 12 of our classmates. A few died of Covid, or complications. Others were taken by cancer. All were equally devastating.
It seems now that we are seeing a little light at the end of the tunnel. That brings us to getting the monthly lunches started again. I will be talking to Rodney’s Restaurant to set up lunch for June 17th beginning around 11:30. I would appreciate it if you could reply by email or by replying to the blog on the website. I will need a count on how many will be attending.
In closing, the classmates we lost over the last 15 months were:
