  WOW! People from Irvington Congregation!!!! I lived in Indy for a few years and went to Irvington Congregation. Then they switched things around I was supposed to go to Christian Park, but I moved up to the North Side briefly....College Park Congregation, but then came back to the East side again (it wasn't Arlington Heights, I don't think, but at that same KH on 21st street....no longer Irvington.....can't remember.....) Then I left Indy for good....that was about 1992. Anyone remember the Kleines, Kevin & Cathy McAtee, Carl Bredensteiner?

  Alana:

  Yep, I'm talking about the KH on 21st Street. Irvington, Arlington Heights and at some point Eastgate. I remember the Kleine's, but not the other two. The biggest family in the Eastgate Cong. were the Deerburg's. Half the cong. was inter-related to them.

  I'm almost 40, so this would have been in the 70's.

  Hi Carol and Alana,

  I'm going to pm Waiting (my sister) because I've heard her talk about Glenn Klein often. I'll bet she knows quite a few people you both do. She went there a long time. It's a small world sometimes, isn't it??

  I went to Scecina High School (up around 16th St.?) (so did Waiting) and graduated in 1964--she did later. Actually I think I had a date or two with guys from Warren Central! That really takes me back! I remember Washington Square too.

  I'll be going to Indianapolis this October.

  Wellllllllllllllllllllll, HEY y'all! (I've been in South Car-ro-Liiiiii-naa for 22 yrs now)

  If you haven't seen the movie "Hoosiers" - go get it. Great movie - particularily if you remember the basketball Sectionals at that Indpls Butler? college campus. Such memories!

  I lived (along with Patio) close to Arlington St. on southside of Washington Street. Before Scecina, we attended Our Lady of Lourdes grade school.

  In 1969, I started attending Irvington Cong. The Kleins were a great family, so were the Needhams. Remember the Staileys? They moved to the Eastgate congr. in late 70's. Florence Sparks studied with me.........but I don't hold a grudge- she's a fabulous woman, along with her husband, Don.

  Mary Whalin & her daughters? Such good memories! Barb & Steve Jackson?

  Ah well..............some have left, some still "Blinded by the Light" - (insert approp. old rock song tune - Hilliary Step will know)

  I left there to attend Kokomo cong. Ugh! Awful! Some good people - but the Elders In Power controlled with a heavy hand. Reeeeeeeeeeeeal heavy. Couple of confirmed child molesters in that congregation.

  Then to Frankfort, IN cong. - Doyle Coonrod being another Very Good Man. He finally stepped down as an elder & told me later "They never told us when we accepted the position, it was going to be all these decades. We figured a couple of years.....being that the New System was right around the corner."

  Don't miss the Blizzards! But miss the beautiful fall foliage...................
