| Hi guys, here's just a quick update on my life!
Married a New York City fireman from da Bronx - going on 14 years now. We have two boys - Richie - 8 and Jason - 6. I went to Adelphi University and worked in the garment industry in Manhattan for 10 years which took me to some very cool places like Hong Kong and China. We lived in Dobbs Ferry for 12 years in a cute tudor on Ashford ave and just moved to Ridgefield CT. My husband, Richard, retired from the fire dept and I haven't worked since my second son was born so the two of us are attempting to remodel the house ourselves. HGTV needs to send a camera crew here and follow us around - it definitely would make for a good show! I just hope we don't kill each other by the time we're done. I might be showing up to the reunion alone! We've been doing a good bit of travel - the last big trip we did was last summer to Croatia for 6 weeks. It was great - met up w/Steve Rubich and his family while there. The beaches are incredible! We actually just came back yest from Disney/Universal. I attached a few pics from there. Now I need another vacation just to chill and unwind from that. I'll have to say one of the most memorable vacations I had was my 40th cruise w/ Linda Zahn, Catherine Smith, and Sharon Katz. Damn that was a nice break from reality - felt like we were 20 years old again - and yeah we did act like it too. Can't wait to see everyone! Ivanka Lozina Donovan |

| I know this may sound nuts, but perhaps you guys could put before and after shots up on the web. The after shots are easy (who doesn't have a digital picture of himself nowadays?), though the before shots could be tricky (I burned every shot of me taken between 1975-1988).

| After all these years I am divorced and I reside in Wantagh, Long Island near my parents. I have 4 wonder children who keep me on my toes. 3 of my children live in Maryland and one with me. This past Christmas 2 of them traveled to NY to spend some time with me. In the pic is my son Joseph 16, Myself...(26..hehehe), My son David 20, My daughter Melissa 19 and Davids Girlfriend Melissa...My oldest Alexsis is 22 she didn't make it to NY for the holidays. She was tending to her father who recently had a heart attack that resulted into a quadruple bipass. As you can see I have spent most of my life raising 4 great kids (nothing like me). The only traveling that we did was moving around to see different areas. We lived from Maryland to Florida back to Maryland and then NY.
After children I did go back to school to become a Medical Assitant and then on to a Critical Care Tech. I work in a pediatric office and I volunteer in the Wantagh Fire Department as a Captain of an Ambulance and a critical care tech saving lives. Loving every moment! I still speak to, and occasionally hang out with Carla, Corky, Val, Amico and Angel...of course I am so busy and they get mad at me for not spending more time with them... I am so looking forward to seeing everyone at the reunion. I can't believe that it is almost 25 years later... So much more to say...But I will save it for when I see you all..... Lisa Mazzo |

| After moving from NY, I moved to St. Augustine, FL. I have 2 wonderful kids - Jessica is 22 and just got married and they have purchased their first house. Daniel is 20, going to UF and has purchased a condo there. I still keep in touch with Ingrid Shank, Adrienne Richter and Milli Anderson. I went to visit Ingrid - who is living in Norway, and Milli - who is living in Denmark. Adrienne is living in Utah - who I visited about 5 years ago.I think Ingrid's parents are still living in Ardsley. I have pretty much stayed living in St. Augustine - although I did move to MA for a year for work. Have travelled all over the US, Japan, and Europe. I have been working as a network / systems administrator. I have worked for Northrop Grumman, Luhrs Marine Group, the local government here in St. Augustine, and now working for a no stress place - that's their goal! I'm happy as long as I am working on computers. I am seeing a great guy - Chris. He's got a recording studio, plays mostly guitar but can play it all. He's been doing talk radio down here with his friends - supposed to talk about sports but I have never heard anything but joking around. My goal is to stay happy! Robin |

| What can I say about the last 25 years??? It would take many pages, so I will condense it into a short e-mail. I graduated from Colgate University in 1987 and got my MBA in accounting from SUNY @ Buffalo in 1992 and my CPA shortly thereafter. I lived in Forest Hills, Queens from 1992 until 1996, working at various accounting jobs in Manhattan. In 1996 I moved to Edgewater, NJ and got married in 1997. That didn't work out, and I got divorced in 1999. I went through a pre-midlife crisis after that and started riding really fast motorcycles. This was a lot of fun until I got into an accident that made my life flash before my eyes, so I gave up the bikes. I got remarried in 2004 to my wonderful wife Paula who is with me in the picture above and last year we moved to a nice high rise apartment in Hackensack with a great view of scenic New Jersey. I am now working for the Board of Education in Elizabeth, NJ.
I still keep in touch with Ken Kramer and Jim Klepper, and I am really excited to see what my classmates are up to 25 years after the Ardsley experience. I would be more than happy to help with the reunion, and I look forward to seeing everyone next year. Andy |
