Who went to Verdun High in the 50s?
ReplyDeleteHi SecondAve, Did you know Charlie Watt from 4th ave. He is the uncle of a good friend of mine and always put us kids on his shoulders. He is 6' 7" and we got the biggest kick out of it. He is about 65 years old. He delivered groceries for Gruman's on 4th and Verdun ave. in the late 50's. Dannyb
ReplyDeleteBill W. was a very good buddy of Doctor Bob. I met them 24 years ago and we became friends!
ReplyDeleteDan,
ReplyDeleteAlright! Ya I knew Charley Watt. He was in my class at Bannantyne
school in 56 I believe. Mrs. Martin's class. Great teacher we really
need many more gifted teachers just like her at Bannantyne and
elsewhere. Charley sat a few desks behind me I remember. Very laid back
11 year old. Good penmanship I remember.
In regards to Bill W. and Dr. Bob, I met them when I was 35 and I'm 64
years old now. Small world. I plan to meet them once again in Toronto
in June. How about yourself.

Correction: Grade seven had to have been 1952 or 53. I remember Miss
ReplyDeleteMartin's class was a year after the coronation of Queen Elizabeth.
