I had not looked at the chat board for quite awhile. This has been a great trip down memory lane. A few sad moments: Tate mentioned Pete Staddon. I was honored to attend his service here. Phyllis mentioned Buck Albright ('67). His family was on my paper route. I rang their doorbell to collect not 10 min after the telegram came. The chatter about old neighborhood friends reminds me of all the fun and trouble I got into with some of guys around Mitchell school. Don Peterson, Ted Maish, Mike Delamater, Charlie Brownd, Butch Bennet, Ross Thompson, Bob Hart. Jr. Hi we started a small fire at JayCee park with match guns. Skim boarding in the irrigation at Mitchell School. Tackle football in the irrigation -- the water tastes really bad!! Following a homemade 'hotair balloon' ( dry cleaning bag tied to an alum. pietin with a candle) from Ted's house at Univ. & Priest one evening on our bikes all the way to the MU on campus and then hauling a-- when it landed on the roof of the MU. The memories of Tempe Beach that I have are similar to those of others: Riding bikes down there to spend a whole day, playing dibble dabble, eating taffy and having a snow cone. Alex Arredondo taught the swim class when I finally learned to swim (8yrs old). Then in high school: TP raids on our motor scooters: Maish, Peterson and I hade Honda's, Delamater rode a Vespa, Hart had a Cushman and Langhi had a Trail 90. Working at Burger Chef with Maish and Dave Mattox, Bob Johnson and his brother Bruce ('71), Sara Timmer and others younger and older. Many Buff's worked there at one time or another, most all ate there, and a few won or lost a fight there. I was lucky too, a great neiborhood and great friends. Tempe in the 50's and 60's was a really great place to grow up.
