Remember diving off of 3rd railing?!!
Georgia!!! Does Amber Duke Of Westbrook Court bring back memories? This is Arthur Walker. I was saddened to read that your Mother had passed. I remember her
fondly and how the girls from that side of the golf course used to join the girls from our
side and golf, golf and golf!!! Included in that group was Lindy T. Oh what fun we used to have in the Summer…Loon Lake, Sun Lake, dancing at the hall on Saturday nights!!! I remember the diving tower at Sun Lake, Sandy Piilo’s fall and her injuries,
Mark Posey’s fall and his injuries. I always remember Sandy. Erick Leskonin(sp) and I knew about each other. He even came to the commune I lived in when I was a student at Wayne State. Life has changed for me. I currently live in an assisted living facility in Berlin, New Jersey. I experienced a botched knee replacement by a reputable Ortho in Philly. He did my right knee, which is fantastic. His residents took care of my left knee. Oh yes, I also developed MRSA in my left leg. How about them apples!!! Must go. I hope that you will write. Take care.
Sincerely,
