I do distinctlyremember Steve’s “A-Ten-shut: eachday... and I enjoyed his repeating itfor us in Vegas (almost as much as heenjoyed it). What a generous Alumhe is to treat us so well.” RussAndrews ’64PH M and PH = MPHMike Shea ’63HQ and Fran Pordum ’63C.The Wynn hotel and casino was a very elegantand pleasurable setting in which to meet new andold friends. Share experiences from our days atThe Manlius School. I was most impressed thatSteve Wynn was such a down to earth person andreally cherished his experiences at Manlius andwas willing to share them with us. My wife Becky,my brother Fred and his wife Jane, all had awonderful time. Fran Pordum ’63CCarrie Manolakos’02, AndreasWigand ’03,Claude Dallas ’00,Steve Herron ’03and JenniferLeinbach.Woody Obrig ’59A summed up the weekend:The whole experience was electric. The Encore Resort andtrip to Nellis Air Force Base, courtesy of Retired GeneralHowell Estes and Steve Wynn, were truly memorable. Thebest part was just enjoying old times with “old boys”. I wasimpressed with Steve Wynn’s personal recollections and thetime he devoted to just being one of us, and making surehe spent quality time with all his classmates. Thanks Steve,Eddie Nathan, the alumni office and all my classmates.Woody Obrig ’59AChopin room at the Encore,breakfast, Sunday morning.Sharon hit a big jackpot on thequarter machine and the food wasgood.
