These Maple Shade students are in their 90's now. I see my friend Lillian Tindall Smith from the Hamilton Township Historical Society in the front row, and another old friend, the late Al Thiel who was an active member of St. Anthony's Holy Name Society when I was president of that august group back in the 1980's. Al operated the cemetery monument business across from Greenwood Cemetery, and in some distant way is related to the late Phoebe Thiel, who was my uncle Charlie Gaudette's sister. Other names in that class are very familiar: Gropp, Stemhagen, and Markgraf.
