Our Senior Ski Trip. The SWEAT BOX! And to you Tommy and Mike..."WHO IZ THAT?!" that was one of the best nites of my life. I also had some great times hanging out with all my friends at Brothers Pub and Baker Street. Those were the days.

Mark Fradkin - 1962 - mrfradkin@aol.com - Freehold, NJ - 2000.01.25
Looking for: Anyone with whom I was acquainted in the early 1960s (and before).
Memories: It's hard to pick individual things. Spending six years in the same school piles up a lot of potential material (and this is not counting first grade back in 1950-51). The really best memories and just the people -- classmates, friends and teachers.
Comments: I am really impressed with the website. Having been completely out of touch with everyone since the 1960s, it really is wonderful to see some names and read the comments from people with whom I went to school. It is a little disappointing to see so few people listed from the Class of 1962, but I hope that will grow. I certainly would be interested in the giant reunion I saw mentioned here. I hope to hear from anyone who wants to contact me.

Cosmo, and the "Country Store On Wheels", spirit week, the Rutgers Cup winners, & our awesome baseball team! Does anyone else remember the teachers strike in 1978? Or "Fusco Mustgo?" A truly great school, with great teachers, & a great student body...
Comments: This web site is a great idea, and I hope all will pass the word to alumni to add their comments as well! Long Live the DIVISION AVENUE BLUE DRAGONS! Thanx for the memories!

Memories: I now live in Wantagh with my husband John and our three children, Johnny 4, Kerri 3, and Jamie 7 months. I spent 7 years on the NYC Police Department before becoming a full-time Mom.
I still stay in touch with a lot of the high-school gang but would love to hear from others.
My high school memories are homecoming, volleyball, basketball, softball, football games, ski trips, hanging out on the bleachers, running from the cops, and never getting cold in zero-degree temperatures.

Looking for: Rose Cardali, Callie Varellas, Monica Sampson, anyone from 1981
Memories: Driver's Ed at 6:00 am with Mr. Clapps. I think I drove him the craziest out of all us who were in the car. The Senior Prom and going to Great Adventure. Cosmetology class at the old Pintail or Laurel Lane School.
The senior ski trip to the Berkshires. Mrs Miranda's 9th grade Spanish class. I couldn't stand her and I think the feeling was mutual. Those of you who were in the class know what I mean. Hanging out with great friends.

Richard Jacobia - Coach, J.V. Softball 1987-1994 - grouchy3647@aol.com - Cape Coral, Florida - 2000.02.05
Looking for: Former Lady Dragon Softball players
Memories: My favorite memories of Division are those of the hard work that the girls did to achieve the success they deserved. They were out there in the rain and cold and sometimes even snow working hard for a common goal.They all gave 110% all of the time and it showed in their success. It was a great feeling after a game to have the umpires, the opponents' parents, and even the other team, congratulate me on the fine team we had. I even got a note in the mail from one parent of an opposing team that played in our J.V. Invitational Softball tournament stating how much she enjoyed watching the Lady Dragons play. I would also like to thank the many parents who supported the team at both home and away games. Well enough about softball for now. I hope everyone is doing well, and if you ever find yourself in beautiful South West Florida, please feel free to visit. Bye for now.

I have been at DAHS for 31 years - since 1969-1970. I taught Social Studies, then became Social Studies Chairperson in 1991 and finally one of two Assistant Principals in 1995. I am currently working with the children of many, many former students which is an added benefit to a career that I have thoroughly enjoyed. Any former students wishing to come back and tour the building are certainly welcome. Just give me a call at 520-8350 X703 and I'll be happy to show you around.

Marilyn Reynolds - 1970 - maroro@msn.com - New Jersey - 2000.02.05 (new e-mail 2001.01.11)
Comments: It's really hard to believe it's been almost 30 years since my class graduated from Division. I've remained friends with several DAHS-ers and run into a few others in recent years, since I still live in the New York area. There were others I wanted to get in touch with but didn't know how, so I think this website is a great idea! As for where I've been -- after a bunch of heavy music study and lots of experience of both life and performing, I feel I can say I did become a good violinist and have been working as such in New York for many years. I am married to an opera singer and we have a son. My sisters, Margaret Reynolds Sargent (class of 1974) and Charlotte Reynolds (class of 1977) are living in the NYC area also, and my father, Bill Reynolds (chorus teacher at DAHS) and mother have been living in western Texas since 1993. I'd be glad to hear from anyone who knew me at Division.

Memories: Hanging out on the bleachers in the freezing cold weather. Going to Sweet 16 parties and parties at houses. Watching all the lacrosse/football/basketball/baseball/wrestling games/matches, being a cheerleader, keeping score for the best lacrosse team and getting paid for it. The prom, dances, smoking in the bathroom, hanging out in the senior lounge. Ahhh those were the days.
Comments: Hi, I married a wonderful man from Westbury. We have two beautiful children: girl, Kaycie 6 yrs old and boy, Michael 3 yrs old. I live in Jericho we just bought a home in East Northport. We will be moving by 8/2000. Ok gotta run, kids are screaming. Take care. :)

Old friends touching base would be lovely! I'm doing well, kids are 23 & 21, still married to the same man, celebrated our 26th anniversary last year. OOOOhhh getting old, man! Some of you will get a kick out of this. I got me a 1973 Volkswagen Bug last year. We call it the anniversary beetle in honour of our wedding. Think I'm regressing? Working for a Global company in an environmental field, I'm a national accounts rep. Translation: I put out fires all day long. Look for me in the listings. Deb C.

Jill Geisman (now Jill Budney) - would have been 1971 - jbudney389@aol.com - King of Prussia, PA - 2000.02.10
Looking for: Diane Gelfer, Mary Grace Miner, Jerry Reichert
Memories: I was only at DAHS from 7th through 9th grade, but I remember feeling like I was part of something really special - could any other high school have as much school spirit as DAHS? The Blue Dragons were undefeated so the football games were always lots of fun and I also remember "Instant parties" that were held at my cousins' house (Jeff 1961 and Ellen Peyton 1965). I moved to New Jersey in 1968 and my new high school never measured up to the expectations I had after being at DAHS for three years.

I'm not a computer person, so I do not have a computer at home. Been living in this cold state of Maine for the last 23 years. It has kept me well preserved. I have two grown children; a 22 year old son and a 19 year old daughter (both away at school), divorced (anyone have a single friend? {male please}) Would love to hear from other 1969 grads! Look forward to a reunion.

Looking for: Any 1960-1963 KIDS!!!
Just yesterday, we were all in H.S., worrying about whose house we were going over to watch American Bandstand at, or who was going to have a party that night. The year 2000 was an undreamed-of science fiction movie. Now most of us are parents, grandparents, semi-retired or retired. AMAZING, WHERE DID THE TIME GO? But bring us to a Levittown DAHS reunion and we all are 16 again.
I look forward to the 1960's (&1961's) reunion this July 2000. I will be there. Hope to see as many old friends as possible there.
Maryann Webster Delaney (class of 1962) and her husband, Ed, own a restaurant on Hicksville Road in Hicksville, called Delaney's. Why not drop in for an informal reunion..., or why don't we plan one? Anyone interested, drop me a line and let's get it rolling.

Bob O'Brien - 1960? (dropped out 4/1959) - trkstopfl5@aol.com - Sanford, Florida - 1999.11.07
Looking for: any grads who may presently reside in Florida.
Memories: those toughguy (not really) gym teachers, i.e. Gene Aiello, Jerry Jewell; and all the memories I missed when I joined the Navy in 1959.
I believe I attended Division Avenue High School 1957, 1958, 1959. I remember Bob Noonan who dropped out the same year as I did. Others I remember are Al Smith, Al Pike, Tom Smith and a biology teacher Mr. Tessier.

Bob Pickard - 1988 - pickardb@aol.com (bad e-mail 2003.03.27) - Seaford, NY - 2000.02.18
First of all, to everyone at the 10-year reunion who I told I was a Gynecologist... I lied, sorry. I would also like to apologize to the guy in the mens room who I called Phil, who later turned out NOT to be Phil.
Come to think of it, I don't even think we graduated with a Phil.
Memories:
Scoring the winning touchdown in the homecoming game against MacArthur.
Senior year.
Giving the Valedictory speech at graduation.
Beating up an assistant coach who cursed me out during a game.
(Actually I did this four years later in a bar... well worth the wait.)
Signing everyone's yearbook "Someday you'll be sorry!!!" (that one still cracks me up)
Fond hellos to:
Coach Gorman, who abused me day in and day out for two years. It was worth it.
Coach Robins, who taught me the fundamentals of the game of basketball. Applied later in life but again, worth the wait.
Seņor Capo, who fed my ego like nobody's business.
Mr. Ryan - Truly the funniest teacher in the history of secondary education.
Mr. Tier - A worthy adversary.
Shaun Walters, Rob Hall and Joe Bonsignore (in no particular order). The best friends a guy could ever have.
My wife Theresa, who taught me how to succeed. And how to say I'm sorry with jewelry and baby grand pianos (which she never plays but I don't complain because I APPRECIATE HER).
I hope this message finds you all well.

Jim Ambrose - 1989 - Long Island - 2000.02.22 - thatsjustjim99@aol.com - Sarasota, Florida - (update 2001.10.28)

Looking for: So many!!
Memories: I made so many wonderful friends who have truly influenced my life as it is today. I had a chance to see some of them in 1999 at our reunion. I especially loved performing in plays and musical productions. I met my husband of 32 years while I was in 11th grade. I remember the excitement I felt knowing he'd be waiting outside the school to pick me up after class. It was such a wonderful time in my life.
Comments: The Class of 1965 had a very successful reunion on 9/18/1999. Approximately 140 attended. A journal was published and I am now working on a post-reunion journal. Many of our classmates are still missing. We're planning a 40th reunion in 2005 and would love to give everyone a chance to attend. If you are not yet part of the list, please contact me via e-mail or phone (516) 431-8176.

Looking for: Old friends
Memories: My fondest memories were in the music department. I loved the marching band tournaments, and musicals. Mr. G and Henry were awesome teachers and I learned a lot from them. I made a lot of friends and learned a lot about people. Those are lessons that I have taken with me through my lifetime.
Comments: I married my husband Brian in September 1995. We were married at West Point Military Academy. He is currently a Blackhawk helicopter pilot and is due to take his company command this summer. We have a beautiful 3 year old daughter named Lindsay Nicole. Right now I enjoy being a stay at home mom. We have lived in North Carolina and Alabama. I lived with my parents during his Bosnia deployment but stuck it out here in Europe while he was deployed to Albania. We currently reside in Giebelstadt, Germany. We love Germany and have tried to absorb as much of the culture as possible. In addition to sight-seeing I enjoy going to all of the antique stores here and refinishing the pieces that I buy. I have also learned how to quilt and I am currently making quilts to sell at our Craft Cottage on post. Mostly I am kept busy with a very active 3 year old who attends pre-school and ballet classes. I am curious about the whereabouts of a few people and I would love to hear from any of my old friends.

I married my husband, Lewis, in July of 1992. He is a Senior V.P. at Zurich Scudder Investments in Manhattan. We have two beautiful boys: Joseph was born in August of 1996. He is smart, funny, athletic, PC literate (gets that from Daddy) and loves to sing and dance (gets that from me!). Our newest addition, Jason, was born in September of 2000. We are living in a beautiful house on Long Island and are very happy. Our brother and sister-in-law just bought the house next door to us and gave us our first niece, Jessica, in May 2000. We love skiing, sailing, and traveling.
Sandy Geller-Apgar (1988) and Chris Sauer (1986) are still two of my closest friends. It was great seeing everyone at our 10-year reunion in 1998. Thanks to this wonderful website, I've been in touch with many old friends. I hope all my old friends are well and look forward to hearing from anyone who knew me way back when...

Larry Campbell - 1973 - lcmp406@cswebmail.com - Merrick, NY - 2000.02.25
Memories: Mostly I remember the day I won the town race and the town folk carried me through the marketplace on their shoulders. That evening, dozens of teenage girls didn't want me to leave the party. I was too polite to tell them I had to go home and finish writing my valedictorian speech, the one where I first laid out my vision of the Internet. I also remember the many lives I saved with simple acts of heroism and the countless lives I touched with my generous spirit. I am so grateful that my memory is so sharp, these memories still so clear. Unlike you who are reading this. How I pity you. I can see you sitting at your PC reading this, shaking your head, wondering out loud "Why don't I even remember this guy?" It's a pity, it really is.

Bob Mancino / "Monk" - 1969 - rmancino@jps.net - Clearlake, Calif. - 2000.02.28
Memories: Saturday afternoon football games are some of my fondest memories.
The comraderie with the other players, the bragging rights if we won or even just the honor of representing DAHS, win or lose. I believe the years I spent at Division were the formative years of my character. I didn't realize it then but many of my teachers would say that those would be some of the best years and they were right. "The child is the father to the man" as someone once said and those years spent as a child at DAHS have made me a better man.
To all those that I have spent those years with that I may have hurt by cruel things I may have done or said, I apologize. I hope you can find it in your heart to forgive me and if you don't it doesn't really matter cause next time I see you... I'M GONNA GIVE IT TO YOU EVEN WORSE AND SEE HOW YOU LIKE IT THIS TIME !!! Love, the Monk

Memories: My favorite years were spent on the stage of D.A.H.S. appearing in the school musicals each year ("Sound of Music, "Oliver," "Mame," and "South Pacific." I played flute and piccolo in the band and orchestra and sang in chorus. Loved Mr. Teichardt, band director. I loved marching in the football games in the fall. Took five years of language (both French and Spanish) with Miss Felicetti (she and I remain close friends since graduation). I had Mrs. Stillwaggon for bio (loved her), Mrs. Jarrett English, remember Mr. Bunton?, some great teachers -- some not so great. Loved being able to walk to the Mays shopping Center during lunch hour. Remember Grants and Woolworths? I walked those hallowed halls about 10 or 11 years ago holding my children's hands and taking them on a tour of the halls and auditorium. It was strange! Anybody remember me?

Memories: Hanging out with friends, helping out with the yearbook, working at McDonald's with lots of other classmates (yikes! cannot believe that we actually had fun working there!)
Comments: After Division, graduated SUNY Albany (went to school with Wendy Neifeld and Doug) with degrees in Psychology and Sociology and then off to Saint John's Law School -- graduated in 1989 and went to work for a very large law firm in Manhattan (hated that)so came back to Long Island and worked for a few small firms where I met a fellow SJU graduate and opened our own practice in Mineola -- which has been doing very well for the last few years and continues to grow. In the interim, met a wonderful man and married him (13 years this past February) and have three beautiful children -- Kayleigh, 8; Dallas, 2 1/2; Tristan, 9 months! Moved out to Setauket and built a house -- every once in a while I run into someone from High School and fondly recall our teenage years! Just recently ran into Mr. Pahl and had a blast talking to him and my daughter at the same time (weird experience!) Just this week had a big case with opposing counsel Avrum Rosen (and over 76 hours of working together, discovered that he was a Division graduate also (ten years before me) and he told me about this site! Hope to hear from some classmates soon!

Memories: Dances at the new "Pintail Lane School", being a sophomore in a high school with its first-ever "senior" graduating class. Thursday bus trips to Jones Beach in the summer. Baseball games breaking out almost anyplace in the neighborhood. But more than anything else, growing up in a place where tranquill peace set in, knowing that no matter what, we all looked out for each other. Mr. Levitt had a dream, it was up to us to fulfill it. And based on this web site I believe we have.

Comments: I would like to wish all of my former classmates well. I have a melancholy feeling when I think of high school days. I was never one of the outgoing characters of Division, but I enjoyed being a part of that wonderful group of people. These days, I am married and have three beautiful children, Melanie (6), Bobby (4) and Jessica (1). I attend Levittown Baptist Church and have embarked on a lifelong journey to learn God's word and become closer to our Lord and Saviour Jesus Christ. Ironically, Danny Walsh's mom attends my church and when Danny lived in Levittown, he too was a member. I was able to see Danny just last sunday, he is married and doing well. I am still great friends with Andy Atkins; he was my best man and I was his. He is a schoolteacher now. I still hang with Brian Parpan, he is married and is a Nassau County cop. Well that's all for now. God Bless you all and good-night -- BG.

Looking for: Kristin Lennstrom, Tricia Lennstrom, Sheila Pourch, Christine Wyler.
Memories: All the years' chorus. My fondest memories were of those I sang alongside.
Comments: In retrospect attending DAHS helped to make me who I am today and more importantly it taught me the effect one human being has on another by how we treat them. In looking back, DAHS was not the hell I thought it was, only purgatory. Since leaving and reflecting on my life since then I thought I had done a 180 degree turn (until recently). I have discovered I am still evolving. Since leaving high school I have spent most of my time on Long Island, with the exception of 15 hellish months I spent in Fort Lauderdale from 1979 until 1980. I have had many careers including retail, restaurant work and banking (which I thought I was going to retire from). I am now a flight attendant with American Airlines and have been with them for 10 1/2 years. That is what I am doing now. Last year though I decided I wanted to try my hand at acting and am currently studying in Manhattan. No this was not a life-long dream, just something I decided I wanted to try. I will do my first showcase at the school on May 11th and then a second play on July 28th, 29th and 30th. Hopefully with some the right direction and my connections maybe I will start another career. Who knows, but I have decided that I will not let life pass me by and I will not die wondering what if!

Maryann McGuire (now Doyle) - 1974 - skama@juno.com (bad e-mail 2003.03.27) - Levittown, again! - 2000.03.14
Memories: I have lots of fond memories of Division Avenue HS. The most important being the good friends that I met there. I am fortunate to still keep in touch with some. Some other things that come to mind are the many fun times we had back then such as the prom weekend, senior variety show, senior lounge, some of the more colorful teachers (who shall remain anonymous, but you know their names), those ugly yellow gym suits, the plays, and "hanging out".
Comments: A giant reunion sounds great. I know a lot of people asked what happened to me, because I did the other reunions. To be honest, I moved since the last reunion and lost track of all the info. It was a huge undertaking trying to find all of you the first time, and I wasn't up to doing it again. I'm glad to see this site. I'm grateful to all who have made it so wonderful.

I hope I didn't forget anyone. As for the students there are many I remember and some I can't seem to. But I am glad my final move was to Levittown. I have been to many different schools. from Brooklyn to Queens to Long Island - I have lived everywhere. But Levittown was definitely my favorite place! Thank you Maria for finding me after all these years - I had a great time at your wedding! God Bless you ALL! I hope He sends His love and Peace to you and His Angels to protect you! yes, still preaching after all these years!

Martin Librett - 1973 - librettlubey@cs.com - New York, NY - 2000.03.27
Memories: My favorite memory is noticing a girl named Pat Lubey in 11th grade English class who some 16 or so years later became my wife. We now live on the upper west side of Manhattan with our twin 3 1/2 year old daughters. Their backyard is Central Park and their rainy day hangout is the Museum of Natural History.
I also have fond memories of some good teachers; Dr. Levy, Mr. Sobanski, Mr. Miller, Mr. Segal and some others that tried hard.
My senior year was the first year of the Integrated Studies program. As part of the program we ran a mock election. I think it was the only place other than Massachusetts that George McGovern won. Unfortunately we had not yet submitted our application for statehood.
I also remember Larry Campbell winning the big race. Larry was too modest to add that all the girls laughed at his jokes at the party afterwards.

Emily Estow (now Emily Carroll) - 1960 - ecarroll@nmh.org or bobem2@21stcentury.net - Chicago - 2000.03.30
Comments: I love this website. It's transported me back in time, and our family was an early "settler" of Levittown, moving out from the Bronx when I was in 4th grade (1951). It was the best thing that ever happened to me, learning to ride a bicycle, play in grass, see dogs, go to the pool, meet my friends. I wasn't meant to stay in NY, since I looked for a job in Manhattan after college but never found one. Now I love Chicago and love to visit NY. My memories include the great outdoors, the playgrounds, the friends in high school, the Elvis Presley Fan Club vs. the Delta Gamma Phi Sorority, and the teachers, especially Mr. Fricke, Mr. Kalinowski, Mrs. Rowe, Mrs. Drumm, Mr. Chapman, Mr. Simes, many others, and especially Mr. James R. Reilly, my principal. Also Mr. Kiefer, Mrs. Eleanor Brownell, Mr. Gallo my 4th grade teacher, and all the rest. Really, all great influences on my life. Thanks.

I went shopping every weekend with Louise Nicolosi and used to hang out a lot with the girls in my sorority. (Delta Gamma Phi). I loved dancing the Lindy and listening to Night Train every night.
