I wrote a little poem, which you’ll see soon and only you and I will get the slight inference in that poem, but I think you’ll enjoy it

The news of Nancy's passing hit me harder and deeper than I would've ever expected.  I Could feel my heart sync in my chest   When I read the Classmates email  
I met Nancy at Ida Fisher, junior high school, and we dated for a very, very short time in eighth grade if you could even call it dating.     But she was the first girl I ever dated and the first girl I ever danced with  We had a small get-together at Sandy veiths  apartment on 13th and euclid or Pennsylvania 
I actually remember the name of the song that we danced to. It was a beautiful Slow dance And as I stared into her eyes  i still hear it today.   I love how you love me.  I still remember that night vividly Holding her in my arms, even at 13 years old at the time  

 Her mother was a wonderful person. I never met her dad.   And as I moved west ....each time I came back to Miami I would visit her and Barbara at their business  

It was always so good to see her...but    I heard that her husband who was not that well  but he was a lucky man to have her care for him.     I didn't know a lot of the details, but that's what I heard   

Albert, you were also very lucky to know her this long.  
But I guess as the first girl  I ever dated it had much more of an impact on me then I would've imagined 

I miss her face. I miss her smile, and I miss her kindness.   Rest well  Know that there are many people who loved you, Nancy

Well, you haven’t changed a bit… and now you don’t even need glasses. Good job L.
Rick sender. Hope to see you in November

Hey Nancy, Ricky Sender and Ruth, who, as you recall, was nice enough to throw some change in Tom‘s face years ago, When she was anwhen she was a server at her father’s deli, and he used to leave a $.15 tip and said he needed it more than her.
Congratulations and a very, very happy birthday.
By the way, JAN zwilling sounds very familiar to me. Was he a Beach High alum as well but maybe a little older. Once again, have a sweet birthday.

Thank you for helping to take drugs off the street my friend. This is RICK Sender now living in Las Vegas after living in California for 30 years Married 54 years to a beach high graduate.

Hey nance….miss seeing you have the happiest of your youthful birthdays… I keep posting ?? and it replaces him with? I’m sure you’re still looking as beautiful as ever
Ruth and I send you the best…Ricky Sender

Allen and I were very close in high school.  he was probably one of the best athletes at Beach,  but people did not know that at that time.  He ran a six flat 50 yd dash  could hit up baseball a country mile and obviously excelled in tennis. 

my last memory was giving each other a huge hug at our last reunion.  

Terribly sad to see him leave us.   God bless you Allen 

Friends pass away, but memories live on. A really good pitcher until a shop accident cut this endeavor short. I watched as he ran through the open corridors of Beach High, holding his hand as blood was pouring out. A sad moment for me as a teammate. One of the sweetest people I've ever known. And he was so admired for the manner in which he handled this loss.

 I have not seen him since high school but the permanent smile on his face and his positive attitude will always remain with me. A  Truly shocking loss.
