I will always treasure the years I lived in NEWFOUNDLAND.
The kids I went to school with were exceptional people, and the wonderful
people of NEWFOUNDLAND welcomed us, and treated us like family. I have uploaded
my yearbooks and added some photos from that time.

The
“Harmon Rocket, 1962” in its entirety.
The original
content of this page has been divided into two parts.
The first half is
the class photos, and shows all the classes from kindergarten to twelfth grade.
This seems like a good place to put all of my personal
photos from Newfoundland.

These photos were taken in 1976, when my folks made a return
trip to Newfoundland. These are Newfie kids, with St.
Georges in the background.These are
children of my friends.
I
recently reconnected with my dear friend, Anita Cutler/Hinks.(4-18-16)
She has provided the names of the girls and boys in the following photos.
The girls on bikes were the daughters of Bob and Neatha (nee Major) Cutler, who owned the store on Cutler's
Hill. The girl in white, on the left, is Peggy Cutler Thomas. She and Anita are
close friends. The name of the other girl is Tina Cutler Durnford.
The boys on the top step are (Back L- R) Wade Swyer and Melvin Sears. The boys on the lower level are
(Front L-R) Frank Cutler, Barry Brake, TroyRilea.
I have been waiting for four years for someone to help me
identify these folks. Thank you Anita!
Anita was my very first girlfriend. It is easy to see why I
fell in “love at first sight”. Here are some scans of 8mm movie
film.
I
was able to add this photo today. (4-6-16)These
were taken in late 1962 after I had returned to the states.

And last of all, my favorite place, “Camp 33”.
This is where Richard McCray lost his life, fishing with his dad. It was a very
sad time at school. The black and white photo was added on 5/26/16, after I
found it in www.petesmemories.com/bunch9
. It was mixed with other photos that I was unable to identify.
I have temporarily uploaded a chapter from my autobiography,
entitled, “Newfoundland”.
