Dear former classmates,
This is Dareyoush Rassi. I was an exchange student (from Iran) at Westchester High for the academic year 1968-69. Those in Mr. Wood’s choir may remember me as the self-proclaimed King of Choir!
I had no idea of all the events and reunions; how exciting! A kind classmate (Michael Poss) managed to track me down and sent me the information about the 50th anniversary reunion in October. I am very grateful to him.
I live in Swansea, UK, where I have been living the quiet life of an academic for the last 35 years. My wife and I had already arranged a holiday (in Spain) for October but I am very keen to attend the reunion and I will do all I can to juggle things around.
My memory, which was never great, is rapidly failing and 50 years is such a long time. Looking at the list of those who have registered for the reunion, I could only recognise one name (Roger Eldridge – who was a member of the Explorer group I used to go hiking with.) Would you please be able to put me in touch with him? I’m sure he will remember me. I am also hoping that others will remember me as the exotic (and sometimes cheeky) one!
My wife is traveling back from an overseas trip this weekend and as soon as I get a chance to discuss our change of plans for October with her I will send you my registration form and book the hotel. I have just subscribed to the Newsletter so hopefully I will receive any updates from now on.
Thank you for your time and hoping to see you in October,
Dareyoush
