Evan,
You might not remember me, but your parents would. You were my son Sandy's first friend way back when you and your family lived on 69th Street in NYC. Sandy is now a history professor in Iowa and is married with a a baby boy.
I just found this site and decided to contact you. What are you and your brother up to? How is your mom.
