May 1998 Flem Reunion Photo Gallery

Flems and friends reunited over lunch during Alumni Weekend (May 16, 1998) at Burger Continental in Pasadena, migrating east to Petrillo's and several party-size pizzas (and, of course, beer) as the afternoon progressed. In true Flem fashion, the festivities continued over Memorial Day Weekend, moving north to chez Rousseau (San Jose), where Ken ran the barbecue, Leslie produced additional food and drink, Jacqueline and Monique kept all the other kids (not to mention their parents) entertained. Somewhere in there a bunch of Hula Hoops appeared, not to mention several yearbooks full of embarrassing (but entertaining) photos most of us had forgotten about.

For those of you who missed it (or for those who were there but couldn't remember some of the people at the table), the guys at the Pasadena party included Tim, Linda and Connor Ahern; Frank and Hannah Bernstein; Doug Bourne; Sue Fuhs and Dave Fink; Peter German; Ken Rousseau; and Jesse and JoAnn Slater.

The Rousseau bash featured lots of folks over three days but the names scribbled on my list which I can still read include Sheri, Jamie, Jack, Lance and Landon Abbott; Jill, Korak, Jill and Tina Mitra; Sue and Dave (again); Gary and Patti Tornquist; Mike, Carol and Angelica Pearson; Larry and Jane Friedrich; Vic Manzella; David Huff and Janet Poses; my husband Ian (who really enjoyed all those old recorded Flem songs of Jamie's and decided Techers weren't such nerds after all) and myself (Melody McLaren); and finally, our magnificent hosts, Ken, Leslie, Jacqueline and Monique Rousseau.

I've inserted email links in the captions for the people I know but you can also view the complete list of Flems or register with the Flems and Friends listserve.

If you have other photos of Flems or their families you'd like to share, send them to me at melody.mclaren@bitc.org.uk. I expect a good crop over the holidays and I promise to get them up on the Web more quickly from now on!

Sue Fuhs turned up with Dave Fink (not that Dave, the other one).		Ken Rousseau and Peter German discussed the state of public education (amazing what gets interesting when you have kids!).
Hannah (in baseball cap) brought her dad, Frank "Radar" Bernstein...		...and Connor Ahern brought his mom and dad, Linda and Tim.
Jesse Slater (with wife JoAnn) entertained us all with a vivid description of his current occupation, thereby proving that Flems can turn their hands to just about anything interesting. If you want more details, you'll have to ask him yourself!		Jacqueline Rousseau gets her coiffure adjusted by mom Leslie to complement her fifties motif.
That's Jamie Abbott and Larry "Clam" Lader on the Rousseau deck (avec bier).		Ian "Mr. Melody" McLaren entertains Jill (Ibers) Mitra.
