BJ Retirees lunch on Jan 12

Some old but new faces were at the monthly BJ retirees lunch at Papa Joe’s restaurant on Wednesday (Jan 12). Those who have not been there for a while included Tom White and Bob Leitch of composing and Mickey Dimeff of accounting.. Ed Hanzel’s wife, Norma, also attended.

Kathy Kochanski, Hot Type/Sidebar editor of the Beacon, dropped by to take a few photos and talk with retirees.

Old standys attending include Bob Pell, Cal Deshong, Carl Nelson, Gene McClellan and Hanzell. Editorial types were Bill Canterbury, Tim Hayes, Sandy Levenson, Harry Liggett and John Olesky.

It seemed like attendance was up, probably because of new faces, but attendance was 14 or the same as in December unless we missed someone.. Tom Moore, a regular, was in Maryland

Bob Pell as usual provided photo coverage. Click on the headline above to see his work.

Please encourage others to attend the next lunch Feb. 9.
