And you never brought your class back to Carleton. I thought we were going to make an annual affair of it.

Hi Gerry,

Trust all is well in the West.

If you're still into the web business re reunion, this was just in the Gazette.

I only remember Martin from meeting him at our reunion. We sat together. He was best friends with Jerry Cohen.

Sad; so young.

Take care,

Faigie

Hi Gerry,

I just came from the funeral of Martin Lubin.

Sad that 2 of our most brilliant and funny classmates passed away too soon.

Ironically I sat beside Jerry Cohen's brother. could you please post.

Thanks,

Hi Gerry,

Thanks for the information which I read in the Gazette. Time moves on, I am afraid.

I did not know Martin well, but remember him as an exceptional person.

I hope things are going well with you.

All the best,

Stephen

So very sad;

I remember him so well and saw him when he came out here.  

A great ball player with the team we had down on Fletcher's Field.  Always smiling, always cheerful.  And so very intelligent and clever.  

Alla v'shalom.

Hi Gerry:

Thank you for including me from the list of high school alumni. It is quite sad when someone doesn't make it all the way to old age in life. I could not make the last high school reunion but do have pictures that were taken there.

I remember both Marty Lubin and Jerry Cohen well and do remember you very well and can picture you very clearly in my mind. I don't know if you remember me but a lot of time has past and things fade after 55 years. It seems that you live out west somewhere judging from Faigie's email. I live in the Miami area since 1968 and for 35 years was a real estate developer.

Time does truly fly.

So I wish you good health and good fortune, in this, the latter stages of our lives.

Sincerely, Mel

Since I have had my life saved, I have realized first hand how fragile life is. Enjoy it for it is very precious. Martin Lubin,s passing should emphasize this for all of us. Be well. Mark Lazare
