To the committee what a wonderful job you did. It was a great time and and what a pleasure to see so many classmates there. 

Stephen B. Malerman

It was truly a wonderful experience seeing everyone and sharing our memories again, from a "few (haha) years ago.

i was happy that we had  only a 5 year break so i could see my dear friend Nancy Rattner, instead of waiting 10 years .

looking forward to our 60th

Sorry I couldn't make it for # 55. I live in Ca and timing was poor. ( I will be in Det for a Bat Mitzvah Labor Day  weekend.) Sounds like everyone had a good time. Hopefully we'll make it for #60! Steve Millman

    Donnie Bigelman will be greatly missed by many, including those, some of whom  may not have even seen him in decades. There is a group of us that were with him in the late 1940s and all of the 1950s and into the 1960s and his  best friends in Detroit. Many of us were with him from 1st grade  at Bagley Elementary, then at Post Intermediate, and/or at Mumford High School.  And 2 of us (Danny and myself) were also with Donnie at Michigan State in the dorm as roommates  and I was even “his brother” in ZBT at MSU before moving to Florida.  In addition to being his closest schoolmates, we were also with Donnie  in our JCC Club and sports teams, the Normans, and most of us were also with him in our highly esteemed high school fraternity, the Cosmos.  
    Myself, Ricky Schwartz, Danny Stewart,  Marty Tessler, Billy Shell and Mel Chase will all miss Donnie  very much.  Marty, Ricky and I were hoping to be there in Daytona for the “Donnie’s Celebration of Life” on March 19th,  but could not finalize our schedules to come over from the west coast of Florida.  But we  will be there “in spirit.”  
     We all send our regards and best wishers to Rhoda and Jimmy, who should remember all of us from “back then”  and as how close we all  were with Donnie “back in the day.”  We always knew the proper spelling of the surname and I can still hear Donnie slogan with his smile saying “It’s Big-Man “with an “EL” in the middle” !! He was “a great and fun guy.”

A name out of the past...I remember him from Bagley -always a good guy- life is not a dress rehearsal.

Sorry to hear about "Wee Dee".  Will always remember his dance/hand slap routines with Ricky Schwartz.

So sorry to hear about Don. Soon it'll be our turn. Life goes on. Alan (Kay) that is a beautiful message that has me proud to know so many great Mumford people. Too bad we only get together so often only at the reunions. My very best to Don's family and to everyone.

Melvyn Chase

I lived next door to Donnie on Kentucky all thru Mumford and before. He was a class act. It really hits home when you lose someone that close. Condolences to his whole family. And well done, Alan, you said it all.

I enjoy reading the posts and keeping connected, especially after reading the memorials.  I'm still here!!!

I just did a series of youtube interviews with Jeffrey Mishlove PhD from Thinking Allowed (PBS). This link below is a 1/2 hour on the Secrets and Implications of Medicinal Marijuana:  https://youtu.be/bt74s-Jnp6Y

Mini-Reunion In Florida: Marty Tessler, Rickey Schwartz and Alan Kay

We had a Mini-Reunion here in Florida on March 29th, 2015.  Marty Tessler and Rickey Schwartz spend their Winters in Sarasota, going back and forth to the Detroit area, Chicago and the east coast of Florida.   I live in the St Petersburg Area about an hour away.  It took us a while this year to schedule a time when all three of us were available to schmooze.

As usual, we had a great time talking about the old days and what's been going on recently.

During this get together, we were on the phone with Danny Stewart and Mark Gould and recently I spoke with Billy Shell.

Just wanted to share this photo.

We are part time in Sarasota. Why not expand your get together for others that live in the area? We did a mini reunion years ago when I lived in Connecticut and it was fun!  Barbara Silverman Whitfield

Did anyone take photos of the 60th Reunion? I am living in Arizona and could not attend, besides the fact that my wife and I are recovering from Covid. Togetherness going to far. 

I hope everyone had a wonderful time.

I asked before, but did not get a response; was there a 60th Reunion? if so were there any photos?
