- About Me:
- First of all, thank you to Andy Tivoli for contacting me in LA and turning me on to the site. This is great. After I told him I had a very distinct dream last week about Brad Rudman of all people, Andy calls me out of the blue to tell me that he found out where I was from Brad - weird stuff. So, since 164, Parsons, Hillcrest, and Oneonta, I have been in California since ' 78. My family came out first and I followed after undergrad. Met my (first) wife Melinda and had two beautiful girls in '84 and '86. Divorced in 1988 and met the true love of my life in 1990-91. Had a long distance relationship for almost two years as she worked in Philly, but was originally from the LA area. I brought her home in 1993 and we got married and just celebrated our 15th wedding anniversary. I'm a SVP/ Wealth Advisory for Northern Trust and have been with them for 16 years. A steady eddy I guess. I'm still playing ball and am attempting to golf with little success. My wife Tracy and I are very involved with our dogs (currently 2 Goldens) and are active on the dog agility circuit where we compete with them several times a month.
I love California, but truly miss the energy of NY, and comraderie of my old NY friends. This is a real treat to see names I haven't thought about for years. It would be amazing to see all of you. Like Andy, please let me know when any of you are out in LA. Ironically, I will be in NY in two weeks for my 30th reunion at Oneonta. Unfortunately they'll be no stop in Queens this time around to check out the old neighborhood. I hope you are all well. I have heard from Alison Berger (Steinbach), Cindy Adams, and Bruce Maisel (several years ago when he was in SF - now I understand in Mn.!!) Brad Rudman, - how are you? Helen Gitelson - I have fond memories!! Hope you are well.
- Name of your 6th grade teacher:
- Mr. Edelson

Close but no cigar! The pitcher I caught was Mitch Mestell. As a sidebar, my 81 year old mom to this day tells everybody about a perfect game her son "Hesh" alledgely pitched in the Little League. Everytime I hear the story I just smile. In fact, it was Mestell who pitched the perfect game, I was the other end of the battery playing catcher!
As for Randy, I believe you are referring to Randy Gruen. That son of a gun could hum the seed, he was fast but wild. Randy could make a frieght train take a dirt road...pardon the Delaware expression. My first LL at bat was against the "Wild Thing". I was batting third with the Royals on opening day. Randy had already hit the first two batters, now it was my turn to become dead meat. I only saw two pitches, the second one drilled into my back, loaded the bases and got Randy tossed from the mound. LL rules, 3 Hit By PItch limit!
BTW, this week my wife and I are traveling up to NY for the 40th anniversary of Woodstock. On Friday, we will be making a pilgrimage to the Hall of Fame in Cooperstown. I hear they just inducted a fleet footed lead-off man. I'll look for your plaque! Talk with you later...Hal.
Nothing but net! At the P.S.164 gym or Park Drive East you were unstoppable from 20 feet out. Now when it came to baseball, I did manage to get a few hits off of you. BTW, your contribution to my 1968 autograph book reads as follows, "To Harold, the best catcher in QVLL". Chris Kodak might take exception with that statement. When I get the chance I'll post the page so you can view your penmanship from 41 years ago. Hope all is well... Hal Taylor.
im out here for the week till aug 16th, maybe hook up after the market closes during the week? play some 5-3-1 or some stickball, or me you and davy can go bowling at regency
Next trip out I will call you, sometime in July I'm sure. You started a trend, I had a dream the other day and Duffy was in it.
I'm still in a Thursday night B ball game. Still can't jump, but can still shoot. I was out in Newport Beach a few years ago and hung out Davey Goldstein. Brad
I have 3 kids all in college or grad school and live in Great Neck, L.I.
I spoke to Tiv last week and he mentioned he spoke to you. regards Brad.
