Letters: Former Gloucesterite Remembers When *

Hello Bill,

I just wanted to say, thanks for your great website. I sat here for the last few hours reviewing all sub category titles. I discovered your site when my sister sent me a picture of me and my two brothers with Torch, Shaffer, and Hall together at the Ray Ford\’s Old Timers held in October at the Gloucester Hts. Fire Hall.

Terry lives in Virginia Beach, Virginia. I reside at Churchville, Maryland east of Baltimore. I grew up on Oxford Ave. in the \’Heights\’. After 39 years working for the Federal Government I just stayed here.

The \’Old-timers\’\’ get-together was fun. It was good to rekindle old memories; great time again. If you go to the photo gallery of Ray Ford\’s gathering I am kneeling with my brother Mike (hand on shoulder) and John, right of him is Walt Hall.

see photo

Keep up the good work. I will see you all at the January 26th Breakfast Club meeting.

Happy New Year

Walt Zdon
