I pray The Rockaways make a comeback 2 September 12, 2011 - 04:39 PM Alan Steinberg   Dean, if you're reading this personally, you might remember me and my brother Mike. I was Greg's good friend in Rockaway throughout childhood, and we were great teammates together on that remarkable baseball team that won it all, despite Jack Kerchman. Greg and I were key to winning that title, and when we spoke for the first time since high school a few years before he passed, we re-lived all that, and he sounded as passionate about it as I was. I only learned of hi passing years later from my still close Rockaway friend, Roger Koerner. Greg felt like me about the significance of that team and title -- FR's first ever. He was a magnificent catcher -- the best I ever played with -- and I didn't stop playing basbeall until I was 42, still hitting 3rd and closing out with a .328 average. Greg was not just a singular athlete to me, but one of the finest human beings I knew in my youth. If we'd've lived near each other after high school, I believe we would've remained great pals. And he would've continued to argur -- futlily -- that he was a better hitter than me. If you have any memories of me at all, love to know them. PS: Your tribute to Greg here is wonderful, like the site itself. All the best, your old Rockaway neighbor from 549 Bch. 132nd St., Steiny (#4) 3 September 11, 2011 - 10:05 PM Jim Meador   Dean, Great to reconnect!

Thank You> 7 August 26, 2011 - 12:24 AM Catherine   Was curious about Hog island and came upon this very charming site! Thanks so much for it.. so fascinating.. 8 August 09, 2011 - 04:55 PM Susan Brodsky   This is a fabulous web site! Please allow me to correct an error in Section 3, postcard 8. The postcard locates the home shown in the photo as at the corner of Bay View and Healy Avenue, and the text indicates that these names have been changed to Faber Terrace and Beach 25th. The actual location of this home, which still exists, is at the corner of Healy Ave. and Bay 25th Street. I am certain about this as I live a block away! 9 June 08, 2011 - 07:43 PM Charlotte (Neufeld) Greenwald Roth   My parents brought me to the Rockaways for summers when I was a small girl. After I married I lived on Nielson Ave. and later moved to Bayswater from 1957 - 1975 I worked at the Hebrew Kindergarten and Children's home from 1952-54. I later taught at PS 114 in Rockaway Park from 1966 -1978. These postcards and your narrative are amazing. How the memories flood back! Thank you. 10 June 05, 2011 - 06:20 PM Vincent Chiachiere   The bowling alley upstairs was the Arcade lanes first owned by my grandfather. Iworked at Ginos Pizza, Freddies Tower of Pizza, Carvel.
