    Funny, my 80th birthday is this Saturday, so my wife and daughter have planned a birthday party for me. They got on Facebook and located some of my Judo students from Miami, Florida from 1973 until 1980 or 82 -- and several of them will be coming from various locations around the state. Wow, they are all grandparents! Back then they ranged from grade school to high school age. I taught Judo on and off from 1965 until 1988 when I just lost interest. Looking back and wondering; if one could see in the future back then maybe my teaching days would have continued on.

    My wife and our daughter planned and executed my birthday party in our small home here in Lake Placid, Florida that went very well.  Several local friends came and some of my old Judo students from the 1970’s drove in from a few locations in Florida.  It was great, they are all grandparents now!  Really make one feel old!  A couple friends or old students could not come due to health or COVID-19 reasons.  

    We talked a mile a minute and had such a grand time.  They told me of other former students that are still in contact with each other and they talk about our Judo days all the time.  So nice to have people remember me.  Live a clean life, have friends and treat them well; they remember you forever.
