My dad Larry Hart (Clarence Hart) worked for you in the 70's. My family and I always talk about the fun we had at the store,on the beach and at the arcade. We were just talking about Dad being part of the rotary Club and how we would spend a free night every year at Rockaway Playland. Sadly, my dad passed away two years ago. He was a florest until about 7 years ago when he had a stroke. Chill (our nickname) loved flowers as you well know. Please feel free to contact us. You and your family will always be part of ours. 12 July 04, 2012 - 10:58 AM marc berland   grow up in wavecrest 2008 & 2020 went to ps 215 jhs 198 went to the far rockaway youth center when i grow up i lived in the bungunglows on 26st & 46st it got very bad so we lift for orlando fla my good friends in far rockaway were they lived the bungunglows on 28st growing up in far rockaway was a wild & tuff & wonderfull my mom &dad moved to long island lived there from 1960 to 1985 i miss it everday my to my old friends i miss you all went to hs at hawthorne ceder knolls school from 1975 to 1978 hope to here from some old friends 13 June 20, 2012 - 05:36 PM Petro(Pete)Kurkimilis   I was a student in the old wooden school house in bayswater far rockaway ny I 1938-1939 with my sister Mary and brothers Angelo and jimmy.I graduated in 1940 from the new brick school house.....We lived across the street on sunnyside street....Does any one remember me ?.... 14 June 20, 2012 - 03:57 PM Pete(Peter)Kurkimilis   I attended ps-104 in bayswater,far rockaway nywhen it was a wooden school house in 1938-1939 and graduated from the new brick building in 1940.Does any one remember me from this time period,my sister Mary and brothers Milton Angelo and demetrius(jimmy) also were students at the old school.We lived near the school on sunnyside street,just across the street. 15 June 19, 2012 - 12:09 PM marc berland   i love to grow up in far rockaway 16 April 27, 2012 - 12:09 PM Eric Perez   i am overwhelmed by the history of farrockaway.

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) [Top] Page # 1  2  3  4  5  6  7  8  9  10  ... of 18 [Bottom]
