Nancy, Your dad was Cal Gertsen, and mine was Dave (Dr. David W.) Barry. Sure I remember Cal. I remember him when he ran the camps, when Dick Pease was the assistant director, and when he moved on to Camp Long House in New Hampshire, where I attended during the summer of 1967. Cal was a real "straight shooter", and a good man. I remember when he passed on. My brother Dave is a writer in Miami, as you referred to. My sister Kate is out in LA, but has not fared so well; she's had some troubles. It was all so long ago, I don't know where everybody is. But the memories don't die, they all keep coming back. I'll never forget Sharparoon - the camp, the lake, the hikes, Blue Mountain, Lost Lake, the slag furnace, the iron ore lake. It goes on and on! |
