Departure Gate 24 
5/29/00
FORTY TWO friends and former Eastern Airlines co-workers joined together at Gibbons' Pub on 4/29/00 for a few hours of wonderful camaraderie.  We hope to have at least one picture of every one who was there up on this web site.
NOTICE
Delays in loading these pages is vastly understated!   Pictures are notoriously slow to load to your PC for viewing.  However, the faces that you see here might well be worth the wait.

 
F/A's Fred Shimandle, Marilyn Heumann Atkinson and Gary Lonieski
Above, that is Marilyn Heumann Atkinson, with two smiling flight attendants.
You might be able to believe a photograph, but don't believe everything you read!

 
To the right, that is Carol Seaman with ........WHO??  Was Carmen really there?

F/A's Nilda Quinones French, Bette Fisher, Sally Frissell and Eddie Gibbons
Nilda French Quinones, Bette Fisher, Sally Frissell and Eddie Gibbons
Bette was a member of the EAL Ski Team.  She had a "racer's edge" on some of the other skiers as she lived adjacent to Hunter Mountain  Ski Area in NY.

 
Irene Presti working her charm on Fred Shimandle.
Did Irene really come all the way from Pennsylvania, just to plant a kiss on Fred's cheek.

JFK F/A Debbie Arnold and husband Doug Davis, Ramp Services JFK
We interrupt the reunion at Gibbons' Pub to bring you the VERY FIRST photo e-mailed to The Crew Lounge from "AOLYou'veGotPics".

The photo was sent to us by JFK F/A Debbie Arnold.   Here she is with her husband of 20 years, Doug Davis.  Doug was in Ramp Services at EAL JFK for 25 years.
The skiing was great at Breckenridge, CO 2000.


 
Another photo sent to us via e-mail from Debbie.  (Thanks Debbie for assisting me with this experiment, even if you didn't realize you were.)

Don't know who the lady in the foreground is, but the "guys" are Mark McCormick*, JFK and Guy Gentile, EWR.  Both were EAL crew schedulers.  Guy was at JFK many years before transferring to EWR.

April 2000 and  they are celebrating Mark's "BIG 50".
