August 15th




Of course August 15th is The Feast of the Assumption of Mary. The photo to the left is that of Rev. Harold Dagle in the Chapel. Father Dagle was recently changed from pastor of Immaculate Conception Church in Allentown to pastor emeritus, Immaculate Conception, Allentown. Time marches on.

August 15th was also the traditional "Lithuanian Day" in Schuylkill County. Three of the Lithuanian churches that were recently closed by the Diocese are featured above. Many classmates went to one of these churches or grade schools. By the way Lithuania beat Russia at Bejing Olympics Thursday in basketball. That victory called for a pic of the grateful dead to be inserted for good luck.

August 15th is also the 39th anniversary of the Woodstock Music and Art Fair. Some of the '68 classmates were there: Ed, Jay, Mike, and Maureen to name just a few.

If you thought that you knew all of the lyrics to "With A Little Help From My Friends" then you have to watch this video of Joe Cocker at Woodstock.
