PENFIELD PROUD

Maybe it is because of my childhood memories. Maybe it is because of my lifelong friends. Maybe it is because my boys are walking the same school halls that I did as a kid. I can't pinpoint one reason, but I know one thing for sure. I am so proud of my hometown - the Town of Penfield. 

CHILDHOOD MEMORIES

I grew up in Penfield, NY and graduated from Penfield High School - not mentioning the year! 😉 I will tell you that I was among a select few who have attended all my high school reunions, 10-year, 20-year and 30-year. My boys are growing fast and navigating through Penfield Schools just like I did back in the day. In fact, my boys will have attended and graduated the same elementary, middle and high school that I did way back when. Think about that! It is certainly a feeling of nostalgia when we visit our schools and still see familiar faces around town. 

PROFESSIONAL LIFE

My love affair with Penfield has continued strong as a professional. We reside in Penfield, and I chose to locate my office in the heart of Penfield – just down the road from the Penfield Wegmans. Can’t complain about my 5 minute commute to work. As a high school student, I worked part-time as a page at our Penfield Library, and today I am the longest serving member of our Penfield Library’s Board of Trustees. I continue to see former Directors of the library, staff and fellow pages at various events and of course on Facebook! Life has really come full circle.

A SPECIAL PLACE IN MY HEART

You get the idea why Penfield holds a special place in my heart - and even though Penfield Schools changed its nickname in 2001, I love the Chiefs and Patriots alike! Scroll to the top of this website and you will see my 4th grade picture and senior year picture. Don’t blink, life moves fast.

NEWFOUND INTEREST IN PENFIELD HISTORY

Recently, I sent my boys to a week-long overnight summer camp. My wife and I became “empty nesters” of sorts! I had nothing to do, so I walked around our local cemeteries. One thing led to another, and I became fascinated with Penfield’s rich history. I invite you to visit my webpage dedicated to PENFIELD HISTORY.
