Welcome

This blog is for any of the friends, relatives or decedents of Egidio (James) and Felicetta (Fanny) Warino from Youngstown, Ohio. I hope we can use it as a tool to capture the memories of growing up in our family and the times we shared at Grandma's house on Truesdale Avenue.

Save The Date!

Hello all,

I hope everyone is well and that you have enjoyed the summer.

Some of you may have received a "Save the Date" announcement for Aunt Rose's 90th birthday party. Since my children and my sisters' children will be home for the holidays and won' t be able to come back in January (Aunt Rose's actual birthday is January 20th) we have planned the party during the holidays (December 27th). Because of the economy and since it is just after Christmas, we are requesting no gifts. This is to be a celebration of Aunt Rose's life with her family and it will be great to see everyone. I did not send the announcement to the out of towners but if you are going to be in town please let me know so that we can include you in the guest list. We would love to have you bring your memories and an old picture(s) of Aunt Rose with any of your family to share with everyone. Aunt Rose is very excited and I think it will be a wonderful celebration. We are just in the planning stage so more details will follow in the future. Save the Date - Sunday, December 27th!

Back-to-School 2009

This was the first week of school for us in Atlanta. Dominic had spent a day last week in freshmen orientation and was well prepared for his first week of High School. (Yes, we have a high schooler - Yikes!) He actually came home smiling the first day! He was recruited by the Cross Country team last Spring and has been training all Summer. The training is intense, but he is meeting lots of new friends.

Sonny entered 8th grade and is very happy with his teachers. Homework assignments have been light and easy. Looking forward to celebrating the end of the first week by going to the Paul McCartney Concert at Piedmont Park tomorrow!

Hope all the Warino families have a great first week of school as well!
