The Mother Superior Of All Reunions




1993 was the year of the 25th Reunion, which had the largest turnout. You can click the photo with your mouse and enlarge the picture for somewhat better viewing. It was held at Rick-Ann Hall in Primrose on the day after Thanksgiving. I think it was the anniversary of Marie and Jerry Zebertavage.

Some facts about 1993: The Rock and Roll Hall of Fame inducted Cream, Creedance Clearwater Revival, The Doors, Van Morrison, and Sly and the Family Stone.
Hillary Clinton's husband was beginning his first term as President.
World Series: Toronto Blue Jays vs. Philadelphia Phillies Series: 4-2. Blue Jays won.

Sgt Pepper


On the album cover above one will find Mrs. Cantwell and in the rear Father Nugent. Neither appeared on the final cover of the legendary rock album released in June 1967. Sgt Pepper was ranked as the greatest rock album of all time by Rolling Stone magazine back in 2003. An image of Gandhi was also removed. While Mae West objected at first, she relented and remains visible in the back row on the left. Below is a photo of Mrs. Cantwell with her real band:

random photograph #11




An obvious fraudulent photograph. One good look and you will see female students not wearing their traditional drab green uniforms while Sister Alacoque has Moe Howard, Curly Howard and Larry Fine has visitors.


Here is a Youtube video of The Three Stooges in a classroom: The Alphabet Song.

I think it's about time someone dropped an email to this blog: nativity1968@gmail.com
