• Hello fellow Needhamites and ex-fellow Needhamites!
  
  Greetings from Plymouth(Mass)on Plymouth Bay.
  
  Fall is in the air and my mind goes back to Needham vs Wellesley football fun and rivalry, way back when to NHS Class of '62!
  
  I'm posting our business homepage for Colonial Saw, maybe some of you locals remember Paul Ravinski from The Falls?(Newton Class of '57)
  
  I'm born and raised in The Heights, across from The Cricket Field. I remember treat or treating as a kid, going to the Carter mansion and hoping for a BIG LOAD of candy bars! One time we kids were chased off someone's property by a guy with a shotgun! WAHOO!!
  
  Anyway, lived to tell the story.....(GRIN)!
  
  Love to hear from any of the Old Gang from The Falls, The Heights, the back road, MAC'S!
  
  Still cruisin' and lovin' every minute of it all....Jean and Paul

William Gunther Staubach - Rotonda West, FL, USA

• The Needham web site is very good and I find the entries in the Needham on-line guest book interesting and illuminating.
  Being a former Needham resident (Bird's Hill) and having been a long-time employee of The William Carter Company, I was surprised to have found only one entry from an ex-Carterite. There must be hundreds of them out there and I certainly would like to hear from one or the other who may read this and remember me. I'm now retired and live in SW Florida.

• Lovely site with loads of information.
  But....you might want to tell people what state you're in.
  The only way I found out was after going through all pages except "History" & "Directions", I hit "History" and read a reference to Boston.
  Still, I do love Pansies and would love to visit your area someday.

  no longer feel so "odd". NHS class of '67, but moved away in '69, just returned to the area a year ago

Barbara Serpliss Wilson - Dubuque,IA USA

• I just found your site. I grew up in Needham and unfortunatly my family moved to Framingham during the last quarter of my junior year at Needham HS. My grade school was Dwight and I went to Pollard Jr. High and was the first class to stay at Pollard for 9th grade:( We were all looking forward to being on the hill for our freshman year! Even though I didn't graduate from NHS I have always considered myself a Needhamite. Perhaps one of these years I will attend the reunion of the class of 1964 with a former classmate.
  Can you put me in touch with a class representative so I will be notified of a reunion in 1999? Thanks

  designing a community/ welcome center. We are still in the prelimary design process and are responsible for providing a study on existing similar buildings. Then we need to define the specific characteristics for
  our site. I was wondering it was at all possible if you could help us with our study? Any information that you could send would be helpful and very much appricated.
