Despite wicked winter weather, we managed to host 10 Cadets—made possible by an ever-so-brief appearance of Dr. Dick Doyle. In addition, our Lunch was graced by John Layton, Dr. Charlie Monfort, Terry O'Brien, Frank Pellegrini, Art Repovich, Tony Tuminello, Jim Vogelsang, Jeff Wiener and Pete Zimmerman.

    Jeff threatens Jim and Charlie with a clonk if they don't straighten up and fly right.

    In the opposite corner John Layton and Pete Z. are getting ready to order.
  • IMG_2011.jpeg
    Arriving with a flourish(although he stopped by only briefly to say hello) was Dr. Dick Doyle.
  • IMG_2010.jpeg
    Dick proceeds to demonstrate his first encounter with Brother Peter: Bada-Boom! And then quickly turns to leave for another appointment.

    Frank sums it up with a favorite saying of Dean Martin: "Pasta Fagiole!"
  • IMG_2012.jpeg
    Could it be? The Fonz appearing at our Lunch? Jim seems to think so, and requests an autograph, much to Charlie's amusement.'.

    Mistaken ID—it;s our own, ever-elegant Tony T.!

    Pete, Jeff and Tony swivel to watch what mischief John Layton is up to now!

Feb. 11, 2025

A cold and snow-plagued day, combined with rampant sniffles and sunffles typical of the season, militated against a large group attendance, but our Lunch turned out to be a spectacular and satisfying gathering nonetheless! Present and accounted for were: Dr. Dick Doyle, John May, Charlie Monfort, Terry O'Brien, Frank Pellegrini, Tony Tuminello and Jeff Wiener.

    Charlie and Frank discuss the miserable weather, reminscing about how much harder they had it back in the day when everybody had to hike or take a bus to CBCHS.

    John May with Dick Doyle, who is in an uncharacteristically reflective mood.
  • IMG_2048.jpeg
    Tony asks Charlie and Frank, "So you're going ahead with it?"—reminiscent of Gandalf asking Bilbo just before the latter's 111th Birthday party.
  • IMG_2049.jpeg
    Charlie is ordering, and Frank looks sly, becausse he known what is coming next.
  • IMG_2046.jpeg
    Frank rises, and shows the guys Mittino's actual car plate, which has found a new home with our Lunches, but alas, the stand holding it has broken.
  • IMG_2045.jpeg
    Tom Maher's old cardboard fake license plate lays forlornly on the table. But Frank has hand-crafted a new stand to replace the damaged one!

    The Class are amazed!

We enjoyed a trip out to the "new" CBCHS Campus for Lunch. Thankfully, school was in session (last year they were on Break, and the Lunch had to be canceled.) Six of our number braved the elements and enjoyed a visit with the current Corps: Dr. Dick Doyle, Charlie Monfort, Terry O'Brien, Art Repovich, Jim Vogelsang and Jeff Wiener. The CBCHS President Philip Riley, Christina Schellhardt (Vice President Advancement) and Liz Millikan (Director of Planned Giving) from CBCHS Administration hosted our Lunch.

    Christina also seems to have enchanted Jeff, while Charlie looks on admiringly.

    Now four of our Cadets are under their spell!

    Not to be outdone, CBCHS President Phil Riley poses with Dick and Charlie (who is becoming a bit of a Zelig1)

Our April lunch was honored to have two special guests, Philip Riley, President and Liz Millikan Director Of Leadership Giving at CBC (both of whom hosted our Class last month out at CBC). The nine Cadets present (Layton, May, Monfort, Terry O'Brien, Pellegrini, Repovich, Tuminello, Vogelsang and Wiener) sure did enjoy our guests. Philip Riley was also at our March lunch at CBC; he said that he really enjoys his time with us and said that Michael Jordan told him the Class of '58 is special.

Our May lunch was honored by the presence of a special guest, Rich Schwan, who came all the way from Hermitage, TN. The nine Cadets present (Doyle, Layton, May, Monfort, Terry O'Brien, Pellegrini, Repovich, Tuminello, and Wiener) sure did enjoy seeing Rich again!

CBC Class of 1958 Lunch:
July 8, 2025

Our July lunch was a special occasion—not just the annual Hawaiian Shirt Day! Liz Millikan from CBCHS stopped by to hand out brand-new CBC shirts to everybody, and Val baked a batch of cookies for the lucky attendees!. Terry O'Brien managed to find 5 of the original lei necklaces from past Hawaiian Shirt Lunches to share. May, Monfort, Terry O'Brien, Pellegrini, Repovich, Vogelsang and Wiener were the lucky attendees!

  • JimCharlie.jpeg
    Jim embodies the "maximalist" approach to Hawaiian Shirt Day, while Charlie takes a minimalist approach (lei alone).
  • Art_JimV.jpeg
    Continuing our theme, Art is a study in restrained elegance, while Jim opts for a jaw-dropping riot of color which, it must be said, is a touch more muted than the eyeball-bleeding one he wore last year.
  • May_Monfort.jpeg
    Two minimalists bring a touch of stability to the proceedings, as John and Charlie show how they can be festive yet resrained.
  • MayJeffJim.jpeg
    Jeff's dignified shirt pattern lends a touch of moderation beside Jim, while John takes a third course.
  • Frank_JimM2019.jpg
    Back in 2019, here is what Frank wore on Hawaiian Shirt Day. Way beyond restrained; now see in the next picture what six years hath wrought!
  • UnholyTrinity.jpeg
    Never thought Frank would outshine Jim's splendor, but here he is in all his glory!
  • Frank_Val.jpeg
    Even Val has to come over to see this new Frank, decked out in eye-popping blue.
  • LizMilliken.jpeg
    Liz Millikan dropped in with a pie of brand-new CBCHS Shirts for the Class of 1958 to offset sartorial excesses.
  • LizShirt.jpeg
    A better look at the new CBCHS shirt. Elegant but restrained, and goes with anything.
  • LizMay.jpeg
    She offered John May a pleasing alternative for future lunches.
  • MayShirt.jpeg
    John looks very happy with his new shirt, too.
  • CharlieShirt.jpeg
    Charlie appears pleased as punch with his new shirt!
  • TerryShirt.jpeg
    The elusive Terry O'Brien seems to like his as well!
  • JeffArt.jpeg
    Jeff and Art model their gifts.
  • ALilTight.jpeg
    Unfortunately, Liz must've used Frank's 1958 uniform as a model, proving that we each increase in wisdom and grace (and, perhaps, muscles?) over the years since graduation.
