Baele, Barbara Vincensi   ('68)   -   38 yrs, can't believe it.
What a great idea for a reunion and I'm looking forward to it.
I am a divorced mom of a 15 year old daughter (Liz) who just
recieved her beginners permit for driving. Need I say more?
Great kid, smart and pretty. Makes me laugh alot!
I left So. Bend to go to Purdue for my bachelors in nursing,
then a Master of Science in Nursing from Indiana U at
Indianapolis, and Post Master's as a Family Nurse Practitioner
(FNP) up here in Michigan. Been working as an FNP for 9 years
in a family practice office as well as volunteering as an FNP in
our local indigent and lower income clinic in Holland, Michigan
( 31 years as an RN). I am looking forward to starting as an
assistant professor this fall at Hope College here in Holland,
Michigan teaching nursing.  Plan to finish my PhD by 2009 from
Loyola University in Chicago.
I've enjoyed gardening throughout all of this and have won an
award up here in Holland for my garden. It's actually good  
therapy for me with my schedule.
Can't wait to see everyone!

Blume Annmarie Forman  ('68)   -   Looking forward to the
reunion!  Sure wish more classmates from 1968 sent current
photos!  Graduated from Marian H.S. then went to Ball State.  
Eventually (after a few years living in Florida) graduated from
Bethel College and have worked in the accounting/financial
development fields.  Got really tired of all the administrative duties
and accepted a position six years ago as an internal auditor.  Lots
of travel, but interesting work.  Am married to George Forman (he'll
be happy to autograph your grills at the reunion :-)  We travel  
whenever we have a chance with Rome being our very favorite
place in the world!  Last fall at my brother's ordination in Rome, we
had a private audience with Pope Benedict.  It was the single most
amazing experience you can possibly imagine!  This reunion sure
has brought back fun memories of OLH.  Can't wait to see
everyone.
Bobelenyi, Ronald   ('59)    -     I can remember when OLoH had
their first football team in the fall of 1958.  We had a perfect season
of 0 - 10.  Not the greatest but perfect none the less.  I also
remember some of the dance parties I was able to attend, pretty
great.  I also remember the nuns using the hickory stick on more
than one occasion, (don't know why I was a real angle) might be my
memory is not too good any more.  I also remember choir practice
with Mr. Budzinski ans one time us boys came down the stairs
rather noisly and he made us go back up and come down in a more
quite manner and the teacher was at the top with the pointer,
guess what happened then.
I do look forward to seeing many of the folks from school.  Many of
them were also neighbors so there will be a lot of things to talk
about.  My wife of 37 years is Rose Pecsi (61) so you can read the
family info there.
I am and have been a Tool & Die maker starting my apprenciceship
in 1967.  
I spent 3 years on active duty in the Navy (Seabee's)serving on
Okinawa at a Naval Air Facility and Vietnam with MCB-9. I also spent
the remainder of my 22 years in the Navy in the active reserves.  
When I turned 60 I finally started getting my retirement income.  
Nice!  Its not a whole lot but better than nothing.
Again, looking forward to this reunion and seeing everyone again

Bronicki, Helen (Housand)   ('61)   -    My husband, Mike and I
have lived in Mishawaka all of our married lives except for two
years spent in Venetia, PA.  Mike is a Sales Engineer for
Mechanovent Corp., a division of New York Blower, in LaPorte,
IN.  I work "on top of the world" on the 24th floor of the tallest
building in South Bend (which is not tall at all by most standards).
 I work for a Financial Advisor associated with a philanthropist.

We have lived for 27 years in a Victorian Home built in 1896.  In
the back yard is a two-story Firemen's Barn which is one of the
few left in this area.  All I can say is that it's a good thing that Mike
is handy around the house because this house sure has kept him
and me busy.  If anyone has some spare time and would like to
help with replacing the front porch, you are more that welcome to
come.

We have two children and one grandson.  We just attended our
son, Aaron's wedding earlier this month which was held in front
of a waterfall in the Smokey Mountains.  They live in Indianapolis.  
Our daughter, Tara is married and living in Mishawaka and has
our 16 month old grandson, Cooper, who is running (not walking)
all over the place.

This reunion belongs in the Guinness Book of Records.  If we all
survive it, it will be a thing to remember.  Thanks to all of you that
had a hand in putting this reunion together.  You did a great job!  
Looking forward to seeing everyone.
