I am getting lots of requests for assistance in locating "lost classmates." Rather than creating a separate page for each one, I will be happy to assist by listing them here. The most recent listings will appear first as the "older requests" move down the list. I hope that this will help you find who you are looking for. Please e-mail your requests to me, Skip Weinstock, Class of 1963 at rockaway@astound.net
Should you decide at a later date to remove any information you are sending, please email me at rockaway@astound.net and I will be happy to remove it for you usually within one day. However, information on the Internet is always being copied by search engines such as Google and Yahoo. I have no control over these search engines and it usually takes a lot longer to get information removed from them. So, always be cautious about what you post!
If you spot a name and can assist, please email the person looking and let them know. This is the only way people are finding each other...... with your help!
Your Name Must Accompany

father Joseph Kolton. He lived in the Far Rockaway community growing up and also
died in that community in October 1965.
I never knew my father as at the age of five, I was shipped to Texas to live
with my mother's sister. I have no memory of either my mother or father. I am
looking for anyone who might of known my father and any information about him.
I would appreciate any information on him.
Thank you and I look forward to hearing from you.

Skip,
I used to live in Wavecrest Gardens as a young teen. I'm not sure if you are
still accepting queries on your Rockaway web-site, but I'm trying to locate and
thank a wonderful, inspirational Cardozo JHS teacher I had in the early 1950's,
named Mr. Steinberg (don't remember his first name)...or was it, possibly, Mr.
Bernstein. He was a bald-headed, good looking man and was my English & Music
Appreciation (do they still have that great class, since Music Appreciation,
like many arts classes has mostly been dropped from most schools) teacher, as
well as being Director of the school plays, in which I had featured roles.
He encouraged me to audition for the Manhattan-based High School of Performing
Arts and, surprisingly (since only 30 applications in each of the 3 classes of
drama, dance and music, are accepted yearly from the over 10,000 students
applying), I was chosen to attend. I did so, which paved the way for me to be in
a very unique, hard-working school and go on to become a professional musical
theatre featured performer for 6 years, when I "retired from show biz" to go
into the business world of advertising and public relations and, hence, opening
the first executive search firm in the corporate communications field, Marshall
Consultants.
Is Cardozo still around, since I can't find their contact info and/or can any of
your website followers give me some direction in locating the school and/or him?
Carpe Diem!

Hi! I lived in the US back in 1990 and now for several years I have been trying
to find my big love Mr. Donald Ray Davis, born on Jan. 7, 1958(?). He was raised
in Far Rockaway, and back in -90 he lived on Rockaway Beach. Donald worked
downtown NY as a math/(physics?) teacher in a school for only boys. He used to
work out a lot at the gym back then. Donald also had a son named Donald Jr. I
would just like to know how he is nowadays, hopefully to find out that he´s
doing good and that life has treated him good. Please if you would help me in
finding him and letting him and/or his relatives know my mail address so that we
could get in touch. Donald taught me a lot about life, and the best
one is the reason to why I´m writing this mail; he used to say "Don´t let anyone
steal your dream".

To All,
This is a shot in the DARK!!!
I spend Winters in Palm Beach, FL.. I have known your former classmate, Sam
Davis, for several years. He had lived in south Florida for 20 + years. Bluntly,
Sam was the most unique guy I've ever come across, and his mold is destroyed. He
often spoke of his days in Far Rockaway and Bernie Madoff! I'm now thinking, was
Sam or Bernie the most unique?
Sadly, Sam passed away on 4/18/11 in the hospital of many complications. He went
down with a smile as the same ole Sam! Sam's second wife, Linda, and
his daughter, Jill, predeceased him within the past year.
Sam told his friends that he had been married pre Linda, and had a son with his
first wife. Their names are unknown to us. He said he had recently talked to his
son after a 45 + years hiatus. I think his son is a doctor in Norfolk, VA.
His son the doctor had Sam's biological grandson whom Sam never met.
Sam wanted me to notify his "family" of his death. I want to do this. I got your
email address from the Far Rockaway High School Class of '55 Message Board
through Google.
Can you help me? Thank you,

there since we were little kids. Bob was a lifeguard at different beaches; but
mainly around B 98 and B116. For the last years he worked there he was a

Hello, my name is Leilani Martinez. I resided at 51-45
Almeda Ave.( Edgemere, B. 54th St.) and attended P.S.105 in 1976-1979, I didn't
graduate from this school because my mom (Kathy Martinez) moved out of Far
Rockaway. I'm looking for the Glover family and Maldonado family. I recently
signed up with Classmates hoping to find them, but no luck. I stumbled upon this
website and decided to post something and hope that maybe someone will know and
help me reunite with these families. People knew me by my first name, Leilani,
or Mama or Loni. If anyone knows these families, please help me. Contact me at

There is Always Hope so Don't Give Up!
The Kindness of Strangers
Many
times over the years since I've worked with our database of FRHS alums, I've
received messages from alums and non-alums who are searching for a relative or
friend who attended FRHS. It saddens me when I have to write back that if they
aren't in our database, I don't know where they are located, and I list the web
pages for several search engines. A couple of times I was able to find people
and put them together, which was such a good feeling for me. Then one day the
tables turned.
I had searched for my cousin, Leonard Solomon, for years. I thought he lived in
Florida, but there are many people named Leonard Solomon listed in Florida, New
York and New Jersey (the last address I had for him was in NJ). I called them
all, but never got anywhere...very discouraging. Since we've not seen each other
in well over 50 years, I was concerned that perhaps he wasn't with us any
longer, and out of desperation, googled the high school he went to, Sewanhaka,
the high school he attended when he lived in Floral Park. I found the name and
e-mail of a lady heavily involved in her own class of 1954 55th reunion, took a
chance and mailed her. She mailed me back that her husband graduated with my
cousin in 1952 (they did not know each other) and she even scanned the page in
their yearbook with Lenny's photo. I thanked her profusely for responding so
quickly and said not to worry about getting back to me until after her reunion
was over, but a day later, I got an e-mail from her with two words: LENNY FOUND!
Under that was his address and phone number. I still haven't figured out how she
did it, but five minutes later I was talking to my cousin...she had called him
and he knew it was me. I also was able to get a phone number for Lenny's brother
Irwin, a Sewanhaka grad from 1947, and we had a wonderful family reunion.
Bless the internet and the kindness of strangers.

classmates that graduated that year... Ida Mae Catherwood was the president at
the time and Miss Hahnle (sp) was the graduating teacher. Mrs. Cizik (sp) taught
music appreciation and also led the school chorus, which I was a part of. And
anyone that went to school in those years surely remembers Mrs. Orchard, who
always dressed in orchard and wore orchard jewelry...and a Ms Messner (sp) who
was a bitch on wheels. Some of my classmates were...Marcia Rubinstien, Caroline
Hirschman, Francis Diodati, Gina Greenhill, Alan (Kip) Gerstein, Gloria
Klarfield, Albert Rosen, Alan Bernstein, Gerard (cubby) Cassino (sp) Sondra

My name is Art Kirsch and I’m trying to locate a best
childhood friend who visited me every day for two years when I was homebound and
confined to a wheelchair. I lived on Gipson Street and before my illness, Lloyd
(I called him Lloydee) went to PS 104 together. A couple of years I recovered my
family moved to Brooklyn so I didn’t attend Far Rock (my older sister did).
Lloydee and I lost touch. I’ve thought of him often, checked the Vietnam
Memorial board, searched the Internet, all to no avail. Assuming he
went to Far Rock for 4 years, it is likely he graduated sometime between 1962
and 1964. I now live in California but would love to reconnect with him if
possible.
If you know of his whereabouts, please feel free to forward this email to him.

Hey Skip,
It could be you could help. I have tried for about a year to find my old friend
Mark Goldman from the class of 63. We grew up together at 1087 Gipson St and
went to PS104. I got shipped out to Military School after 1 year of Cardoza, but
would have been in the class of ’63 also. I have been trying to find Mark for a
while…I see his face in the reunion shots, but no email or other references to
him anywhere.
Any info you may have would be appreciated. FYI, my dad owned the Manor
Hotel at 2400 Seagirt Blvd before it became the Phoenix house. My sister
Adrianne (Jodie) is married to cousin Brucie. She was in the class of ’54 or 55.

Hi Skip - I came across the amazing Hall of Honor listed on your alumni website.
What a great way to remember those who have served our country.
I came across the name Henry J. Dehnert listed with the WWII veterans and
wondered if he still has family in the area. I believe he may have gone to
Columbia University with my dad. In fact, dad actually spoke about "Dutch
Dehnert" at an awards dinner at Columbia this week, which happened to fall on
Veterans' Day. Dad told how Dutch went overseas to serve with the army in
Europe, while dad went with the navy to Japanese territory. When dad came home
on leave, the first thing he did was go to Columbia to find his friend Dutch,
only to find out that he had been killed in action. I think it would be
amazing if Dad could touch base with Dutch's family. If you have any information
that would be helpful in contacting them, I would greatly appreciate it if you
would send it to me. Thanks in advance for your time and consideration.
Have a great day!

Probably from 1968-1978 or so I lived at the "park"- the p.s.104 playground in Bayswater. Funny thing, for some reason we ended up there today-haven't been there since the 100 year reunion. For those of us who were fortunate to call it our 2nd home ( because we did virtually live there), they are amazing memories. Without a doubt, we had the best football, basketball, & softball games in the area. Saturday mornings, we started playing football @ 9, and didn't stop till 4- can u imagine that we used to do that? And if you lost, you'd just play basketball until you had "next".
And, we had our very own game, "foot hockey", in the handball courts. How great were those games?? You had to be tough to play in the box! All you guys ( and Nancy Lieberman) that lived there- does anyone know what happened to Jay Smith???? I've often wondered what has become of him. You could always count on jay to paint the lines @ night on the fields, and always ready to play day or night, rain or shine. He was an amazing athelete....yeah, a little nuts, but didn't we have the best games????? Any of you fellow Bayswater boys know what happened, or how he can be reached, please e-mail or post back.

Many thanks for the response.
My wife's family is from Far Rockaway, very early born 60's and 1 cousin in
Breezy Point. There was a family abuse incident that caused all 6 children
to go into foster care then adoption. We have found 2 of them.
Then one day looking at the Far Rock site, there was a couple of pics that the
girl next to Jamie Lepenna almost is an identical twin to my wife. The era of
pic 1978-1982 would have been correct.
I thought Jamie would have known her last name, so sent her an Email 2x with no
response, this including to Rocco to whom also was looking for Jamie.
There also was no response.
Jamie, literally has disappeared off the earth, we lived at one time 20 miles

Hi Skip,
I am interested in finding my prom date, Peter Zaphiris. He was class of '56 . I
am class of '57. While looking thru some of the reunion photos I saw a photo of
Peter at his 50th reunion. What a blast from the past. I started looking for my
50th info this year. I had the wrong year in my mind. My 50th was last June.
Bummer. I have had so much fun reading messages from familiar names and have
laugh and cried at some of them. They have brought back a flood of memories.
Good memories. From what I was able to find on Google Peter may live in
Huntington, Long Island. I emailed and called. No answer and no answering
machine. Do you have any contact info or how I can I get my contact info to him?
We stayed in touch while he was at Tulane and I was at Hunter College here in NY
but drifted apart after awhile. My name was Mary Nafplotis back then. I live in
Jamaica Estates, NY not far from Huntington. It would be a hoot to make contact.
I wish I had found these sites sooner. I sent quite a few emails. So far I have
gotten several undeliverable messages. I heard from Carol today about
registration details.
Keep me posted if there are any get togethers for class of 56 0r 57.
You guys do such a wonderful service for us and take us back to a much earlier
time in our lives.

Skip,
I lived in Edgemere Houses (Almeda Ave. at Beach 54th Street). I attended PS 105
& JHS 198 before going to (and schlepping the one hour plus commute on the
A-Train each way) Brooklyn Tech. However, I have such fond memories of my
years in Far Rockaway and the rivalry with Tech (our football team lost each
year to "The Rock").
I've completely lost touch with great friends such as Michael Bradford and
Dennis Gonzalez, '73. I hope they read this.
This is an incredible site and, as a fellow educator, I congratulate you on what
you have done here. Take Care...

Hi,
It's been quite awhile since I last contacted the FRHS Alumni. I received a call
from a graduate of FRHS. His name is James Houser, and he lived in the Loyard
Apartment House. He was also one of the stars on the Seahorses Football Team in
the early 50s during the Neil Highlander days. He was trying to locate a couple
of his neighbors and students of the school, Barbara Sansone and Barbra Macklas,
who lived in the Loyard and Ellen Friedman who lived on the boardwalk between
123rd St. and 124th St.
And now the sad news. Two of our classmates past away a while back. Paul Satsman
and Rodger Rothstein.
I haven't seen nor spoken with Jimmy since the late 1950s. How he found my phone
number I do not know. He called me late last night and we spoke for almost two
hours.
Please let me know what you can find out. Jimmy has no computer. When you reply,
I wll contact him.

Dear Sir,
I was a graduate of 1945, married a younger alum, Sali Ann Ribakove, in 1957, we both have had remarkable careers in the performing arts, and principally dance and music; I was a critic for The Washington Post 1966-96, earned Pulitzer (in Criticism) in 1976; I am seeking classmate Pearl Ett, a knockout, cheerleader; fellow graduate Sue Goddin Lutkoff, now living in Florida, tells me she knows her and lives not far. As an FRHS undergrad, I had terrific crushes on both Sue and Pearl; have miraculously gotten back in contact with Sue, who was a gifted pianist in her FRHS days, and is now comparing piano notes with my brother-in-law Juilliard grad Sy Ribakove, who lives in Congers, NY. Anyone out there besides Sue who knows Pearl and her whereabouts (PS, when I started college, at MIT, I had a roommate, Bob Lurie, who saw the picture of Pearl in my Dolphin, and ALSO ON THAT BASIS HAD A HUGE CRUSH ON PEARL AND WAS DYING TO MEET HER!!!--never did, of course!).

Hello!
I'm trying to surprise my husband, James V. Cunningham, (Class of 1959). He had
two great friends Michael Boosen (not sure of the spelling) and Dave Proval. I
would love to know if anyone has any info about them or their whereabouts. Jimmy
speaks of them often and I thought it would be nice if I located them and told
them of his interest and his great memories.
Mike Boosen was in my sister-in-law's class (Nancy Cunningham) and she graduated
in 1958. Mike lived on 142nd street in Belle Harbor and I believe he also
graduated with Nancy.
Also, Dave Proval he also would have graduated with my sister in 1958 (I think).
Dave went on to become an actor, playwright. He recently appeared in the
"Sopranos" and had a recurring role in "Everybody Loves Raymond".
Any information would be helpful and I think it would be a wonderful surprise
for my husband.
Sincerely,

Hi,
I am trying to locate someone from the FRHS Class of 1966. Her name was Cathy
Selwyn and she lived in Belle Harbor/Neponsit. I haven't had any luck asking
around the neighborhood. I did locate her old friend & classmate, Marla
Rosengarten, but she doesn't know where Cathy currently is.
My name is Kelly DeMatteis, long time Belle Harbor resident, but Stella Maris
grad. I am the patient of a doctor who dated Cathy back in those days and it's
one of those "whatever happened to Cathy" inquiries. He lived in Rockville
Centre and used to take the bus to Rockaway to see Cathy. When he heard that I
was from Rockaway, he wanted to know if I knew the Selwyns. He thought they
owned a hotel in Manhattan.
If you could post a request in the missing classmates section, I'd appreciate
it.

my best friend Marcia and I don’t remember her last name. I remember she lived
near a teacher’s house on I think beach 20th St. She moved to Oceanside I think
for the 6th grade and I was devastated. Never got hr phone number or anything.
Also, Sari Wilner (blood sister J), Keith who lived in Wavecrest used to be in
my class. He was so sweet when this bully girl was threatening me, telling me to
stand up to her. Tina Mays, Michelle who was friends with Tina, Gwen,

Hi Skip,
I'm not sure if you can help me with this. I grew up in Far Rockaway and
graduated FRHS in 1986. I went to PS 215 back in the 70's. I had a best friend
named Collette back in those days. Unfortunately, I cannot remember her last
name. I think she may have even lived near 32nd. Street off of Seagirt Blvd.,
but I'm not completely sure. The reason why I am looking for her is that I was
just watching some old films that we put on DVD and at one of my birthday
parties she was there and it brought back so many memories of us being best
friends. From the best of my knowledge, I went to PS 215 from the years of
74-82, ( I think) from kindergarten through 5th grade. Hopefully you can
help me or lead me in some direction. Thank you.

Hello Ellyn Weinstock,
I was looking through the FRHS web site as I do often and it is a great way to
stay in touch with old friends. While looking through the site I saw your
picture and the note that you posted (not sure how long ago) and I saw you
mention two good friends that you were attempting to find, Sharon & Johnny Hays.
Well they are my cousins and have two brothers, Dennis & Peter. I don’t know if
you are aware, but John was killed years ago in some altercation that I never
got all the details on how it happened, but I was a bit younger at the time and
so maybe my family wanted to spare me the gory details. Anyway, I have not seen
Sharon, Peter or Dennis in years and back in the 70’s and 80’s we were all very
close and as a matter of fact I have two brothers, Tom & John Hays (twins) that
graduated from FRHS in 1965 and I was wondering if you were ever able to
establish contact with Sharon. If by some chance you ever get any information on
where Sharon is, most of my contact information is below and I graduated FRHS in
1979 along with my twin sister, Rita. Thank you very much for indulging me by
reading this email and take care. (Ellyn, send me your new email address)

Hello Skip,
Towards the end of last year I sent an
email looking for an old friend and although I still have had no information
sent from anyone I remain hopeful. There is another old girlfriend from FRHS
that I am trying to find although she did not graduate from there. In 1978, one
of my first true loves was a girl named Dawn Raifman. At the time she was a
freshman and after that year her family moved to Melville and we lost touch just
from the whole distance issue. The last I heard she was heading to California,
but that was back in the early 80's. One day in the mid 80's she found my number
and called and sounded like she was in some trouble and told me that she was at
a mutual friends house just a block or two away and at that time I lived in
Bayswater. I have not heard from her since and wanted to get in touch with her.
Doing some searches showed me that she was living in Huntington and I think some
of her family lives in Jericho. If anyone has an idea of where she might be
please pass on my email. I would love to hear from her. Thank you. Regards,

I recently wrote looking for Rhonda Bergrin. She was a good friend in high school and because of the web site I received help from classmates in her last known town. But unfortunately the worst news came from her brother's friend. Rhonda is no longer with us and I would like to thank him for taking the time to talk to me. I loved her and think of her often.

Hi Skip,
Just reading through some names and was wondering
if Richard Schatz '51 is from the Schatz family that owned Schatz' Butcher
Shop (35th st?), and if he has a daughter who is now a doctor in NY? He
would have graduated with my mother (Marie Aschettino '51).
thanks.

Hi Skip,
It seems that during the past year,
everywhere I have gone, I have run into someone who was either from Far
Rockaway or knew someone I knew from Far Rockaway.
It must be this web-site doing a number
on the universe. Even Carol and I had a serendipitous experience regarding
her uncle.
Anyway, I had dinner with some friends and sat next to Steve Pearlman. Although he went to PS 39 and JRHS 198, he did not attend Far Rockaway HS. However, he would like Richard Osofsky to get in touch with him. This can be done through me for now at harrietbeck@hotmail.com. If anyone knows the whereabouts or email of Richard, please get in touch with me.
Have a great 4th of July!

July 5, 2005Skip, I was given your name/e-mail to perhaps post the name of Robert Thornton nicknamed 'Rocky'. Graduation year was probably '64 or '65. He lived across from Jamaica Bay in Bayswater at the time. I didn't attend FRHS as I went to Brooklyn Tech. However he and I were friends in our teen years and that was 45 years ago ! Thanks.

Dear Skip,
I'd like very much to know what ever happened to (only good things should happen to her!) Sheila Firestone of Belle Harbor, probably the Class of '58 or '59. She was in a class by herself as the most beautiful girl I've ever seen, and in 48 years in the newspaper business I got to interview some good competition for Sheila: Gina Lollobrigida, Olivia De Havilland, Lauren Bacall, Elke Sommer, Simone Signoret, Leslie Caron, Lucille Ball, Katharine Hepburn, Lee Remick, Diana Ross, Marlo Thomas, Leslie Uggams, Anna Moffo and quite a few more, mostly in the '60s and '70s.
I heard, long ago, second or third hand, that she went to George Washington University or Georgetown, got married and had three children. She had a younger sister, Tina. I'd love for her to see this and to know how she's doing.
