1982-1983 Rothberg Yearbook

Funny. / heard someone lamenting over the fact th at they are leaving in 2 short weeks. A n d I sit here
desperately wanting to change places w ith them. To see m y fam ily, to be in fam iliar surroundings. . . They

"Goldsmith High " and the nights o f Resnick o r Idelson residency.
