I believe I knew your sister Terry she married John Faist. : : : : : : : : : i knew your cousin "leopard "...my brother was lump-lump.. : : : : : : : : I use to hang out with your sister Terry. The last time I saw Terry she was living in North Bergen. I remember your mother and father. You guys lived on Danforth Avenue. Your father's name was Onofrio. I hung out with Terry back in the late 1950's. I remember your brother lump-lump lived upstairs in the house on Danforth Avenue. Where is your sister Terry now? My cousin Vinnie lives in Princeton, New Jersey now. : : : : : : : : I have often thought about Terry, I went to her first baby girl's christening. My last name was DiBartolomeo. If you talk to Terry ask her if she remembers me. Terry and I hung out together on Ocean Avenue. : : : : : : : I just stumbled in here. Was thinking about JC and Greenville. : : : : : : I remember the Romans, and how they hung out at Triangle Park and down in Columbia park, too, l think. The black and lime green jackets. I loved hanging in Reylets as a young teen. All the guys were so exciting. sitting in the back room at a table and listening to the great songs on the juke box. Then leaving at about 9PM before my father came looking for me and caught me with a guy who was smoking. I remember the runs over the Bayonne bridge into "the Island" and going to the Log Cabin at age 16 and drinking beer there and dancing. Who remembers some names? I do! .....Janet.... : : : : : I also hung out on ocean ave and reylets and the danforth ave. area. I think l know who you are, Janet : : : i remember the loafers from Randolph avenue...they would sit on the Wall as we called it ..there was a lot of them.. they liked to play cards knuckles they called the one game...they wore their black jackets with pride... one named balty? had only one leg and could outrun anybody on his crutches... i remember a Shannon my one friend had a crush on... we lived on Randolph avenue so we knew a lot of them....the romans would come down once in a while to hang out with the loafers.. : :
