We are writing on behalf of the Richard Bosco'89 Memorial Scholarship Committee and the Geneseo Foundation to request your support of the first annual Richard Bosco Memorial Golf Tournament. The Richard Bosco'89 Memorial Scholarship will honor the memory of an outstanding Geneseo alumnus and friend who was among the victims of the tragedy that shocked our nation on September 11, 2001. Rich, a Citibank employee, had an 8:00 am appointment at Cantor Fitzgerald when the first plane hit Tower 1. He left behind two beautiful children, a young wife, family members and friends all over the country. By establishing an endowed scholarship at SUNY Geneseo we will ensure he will not be forgotten.
Rich was an economics major in the School of Business and also a competitive athlete who enjoyed life. In addition, he was member of the Orange Knights while at Geneseo. After graduating in 1989 he went on to become a devoted husband and proud father. This scholarship will be awarded annually to a SUNY Geneseo student from the School of Business who reflects the leadership qualities which Rich exemplified. We were very proud to call him our friend and are dedicated to spearheading this campaign to honor his memory. We hope we can count on your support to make this effort a success.
On May 21, 2005, the first annual Richard Bosco'89 Memorial Golf Tournament will take place at Livingston Country Club in Geneseo, NY to support the Memorial Scholarship. We are requesting that you consider participating in the golf tournament, helping sponsor this outstanding event, or support the establishment of the Richard Bosco Memorial Scholarship.
For further information about the scholarship and tournament and how you can help, please visit our website at http://foundation.geneseo.edu/Bosco/boscoscholarship.html
Thank you for your consideration.
Sincerely,
Nick Kompare, Jamie Orzell, Robert Malyk

My Phi Lamb sister and roommate Marcia Stuckie just had a liver transplant and is still very sick. I think cards and information from her fellow Phi Lambs would help in the weeks to come. If anyone out there knows where Tuzz or Gidget is please let them know. If you want to send cards the current address is:
Marcia Aimes Swiencinski
Room 6106
Georgetown Univ. Hospital
3800 Reservoir Rd. NW#2
Washington, D.C. 20007
Eileen (Halpin) Hyde, Spring 1966
Please take a moment to say a prayer in memory of
Timothy Connell Sherry
October 1999 - December 2000
son of Scott and Suzanne (Shortino)
Sherry (Social 86)
Timmy's services were held the Wednesday before Christmas. There were about 300 people at the wake, between all of Suzanne and Scott's family and friends. Many friends that had not been in touch in years were there. The deacon read a beautiful letter that Suzanne wrote that described the wonderful, loving life that Timmy had. She wanted everyone to know that he had not been sick and that his short life was happy and energy filled. She said that he was surely jumping from cloud to cloud in heaven. Suzanne told friends that she had no regrets over any moments with Timmy, that they truly cherished him every day.
I would encourage everyone to send them a note or a card. Even if you have not been in touch with Suzanne in years, please know that she has a huge heart and it does mean so much to her that people are praying for and thinking of them. Their e-mail is smssherry@aol. com. Please keep Suzanne, Scott and Megan in your prayers.
For those people interested in making a memorial contribution for Timmy, please include your name and address with your check and send to:
Timothy Sherry Memorial Fund
c/o Alpine Bank
P. O. Box 349
Basalt, CO 81621

Phone: 970-927-3101
Contributions will benefit Flight for Life or other suitable children's charity. The bank will send acknowledgement of each gift to Suzanne and Scott Sherry.
On a happier note, Dave Magin (better known as Bucky to all you trolls out there!) is making an amazing recovery after many weeks in the hospital following a car accident. He has finally been allowed to return home and is continuing his physical therapy from there. Excerpts from a note from Stacey follows:
Hi guys - it is really me, Stacia. Where do I even start?
I love you
thank you
I love you some more
Words can not even come close to expressing my love for each and every one of you. You are more than friends -- you are my sisters in more ways than one. It just amazes me the power and strength that each of you possess. But together you are unstoppable. Your prayers and positive energy were a crucial and important part of the miracle we have just witnessed in the last 52 days.
Your voicemails were all music to my ears and many tears were shed - just hearing your voices with the most beautiful and inspirational messages. It was the fuel that kept me going. It got pretty hairy, scary, & even bizarre at times - but the power of prayer and positive energy (and of course we love modern technology) prevailed. Bucky is alive. The doctors even said there was something more than their care that kept him here (and they never admit that). I truly believe God smiled on our Buckster. Thanks God!
My advice: if you love someone -- shout it from the rooftops, there is no time for the petty bullshit stuff, 'cause it is just stuff and it usually doesn't matter anyhow
Well I hope your holidays were as special as you all are to me! Please know how much I love each and everyone of you! It is amazing the continuous love and support you have given to us. You have waved your magic wand and made my life so much easier. So many things - your calls, your emails, your voices, your visits, your love, your concern, your strength, your prayers, your hearts, your souls, your minds, your hugs, your tears, your smiles - you! You together are one big magic wand that has made everything OK and let the healing begin!
I love you!!!
Stacia
