Jacques Baron (Prof. de 7eme, annees scolaires 1970 - 1972) “Just want to congratulate you on the impressive issue of the current newsletter. I can see what a tremendous amount of work went into it. Lycee alumni are lucky that you have the time and interest to do this!” Yoka Verdoner, (Prof. d'Anglais, années scolaires 1962 à 1967) «...mes félicitations et mes voeux de succès pour votre magnifique entreprise...» Marie-Dominique Loustalot, Chef du Service des Bibliothèques (1984-1986) "Bravo for all your work for AALFNY" Brigitte Nahon, Prof. de dessin (1996-1997) "Yesterday I had the great pleasure of seeing [a former student] again about forty-four years later! I really want to thank you for all you do to keep Lycee alumni and former teachers connected. You were the one who made this possible. We had a most enjoyable lunch and more or less caught up on many years of personal and professional history." Yoka Verdoner, (Prof. d'Anglais, années scolaires 1962 à 1967) « Comment vous remercier de votre excellent travail? C'est un tel plaisir que de naviguer sur le site de la ‘LFNY Alumni Association’. Tous ceux qui sont passés par le Lycée Français de New York ont sans doute vécu là un temps riche et émouvant, ce fut du moins le cas pour moi, et j'apprends toujours avec un immense intérêt le devenir de mes anciens élèves qui m'ont laissé de merveilleux souvenirs. Bien cordialement de Rome, et tous mes vœux pour l'avenir! » Benoît Anger Gréan, Prof. de Français (1985-94) "Congratulations on the excellent work you have clearly been doing for the AAFLNY." Pierre de Ferry de Fontnouvelle (son of LFNY's founder and first President) "Merci, pour avoir créé [AA]LFNY car il est toujours très agréable de se souvenir de merveilleux moments de vie." Gabriel Moss (Surveillant (1974-75)) « Merci à tous ceux qui contribuent au bon fonctionnement et à l'efficacité de l'association des anciens du LFNY. » Roger Boudeile, Prof de maths (’72 to ’74) "What an excellent idea to contact me and give me the web site of LFNY Alumni Association. I have spent already two nostalgic hours searching for my former students and colleagues. But it's quite rejuvenating and fascinating. Thank you for this enormous amount of work. If I can make a suggestion, more pictures will be welcome." Odile Degail (Former Prof. of Economics) "Great job, thank you so much!" Gautier Willm (Former member of Administration) "I just went to see the Alumni website, and I spent hours going from one link to another! Its priceless to be able to have news from people who shared a very special time in a so particular and multicultural place as the LFNY. Merci d'être un relais aussi précieux!" Cécile Bourlange, former librarian for the primary school ('96-'05) "I'm glad to see this newsletter thriving!" Jane Ross, former Prof. d'histoire.anglais CLASS OF 1944 "Je tiens aussi à vous féliciter de la newsletter que vous avez organisée en Novembre dernier et que j'ai trouvée très bien faite." Claudine Herrmann ('44) From Gabrielle Griswold ('44): “Thank you, Roger! : LFNY newsletter readers besides myself will have learned with dismay that this current issue may be the last one we will see for another “two or three years.” While disappointing, that is understandable as the task of collating, researching, editing, and preparing these newsletters must be phenomenal, physically and mentally demanding, and far more time- and energy-consuming than any of us can imagine. For more years than I can recall, Roger Liwer has been tackling this task devotedly and virtually unassisted, for the benefit of us all. Not only has he provided us with stories and updates concerning alumni of recent and ancient vintage, he has kept us all connected, and in some cases even put us back in touch with former classmates long lost from view, facilitating the renewal of relationships dear to us in our school days. In gratitude for his own Lycée experience, Roger calls this a “labor of love,” and that love is evident on every page. I doubt there is any other school on the planet whose alums have been as privileged as we in being able to enjoy such faithful and intimate continuing contact with our school for so many years after leaving it. It is gratifying to know that health considerations are not in any way responsible for Roger’s decision to lighten his schedule, but simply a natural desire to spend more time with family and friends. And while we will certainly miss the newsletters we have been enjoying so much and receiving regularly for so long, what is important now is to try to thank him adequately for all he’s done for us to date. This little note, therefore, is just one alum’s expression of appreciation for a job nobly undertaken and beautifully executed, over a period of more years than we could have hoped for. Dear Roger, instead of wails of disappointment upon learning that we will hear from you less in future than in the past, please consider that we are heaping upon you crowns of laurel and chanting paeans of praise. No school and no alumni were ever better served. Whatever you choose to do in future we know will be well done, and whatever you choose to send us or however you intend to remain in touch, we will welcome. And again, and forever, thank you, thank you, thank you!” “I am most grateful to you and all the other volunteers who keep the association so vibrantly active and alive.” Gabrielle Griswold (’44) "Thanks, as always, for keeping us all so wonderfully in touch." Gabrielle Griswold ('44) "You are to be heartily congratulated for having put new life in the LFNY Alumni Association. I know how difficult it is to pump life into such an organization and you and your colleagues have done a great job. Keep it up and keep it going. All the best, Un tres Ancien Ancien!" Maurice Raviol ('44) Editor’s note: Maurice is one of the founding members of the AALFNY. The other five are: Kevin Egan ('48), Ellen (Ehrlich) Mimran ('51), Pierre Lorsy ('53), Esther Asper ('44 --deceased), and Jean Arabo ('46) "I greatly admire what you have achieved and hope that you will continue in the future. I do know something about the difficulties of running an alumni association and, not only sympathize, but can truly appreciate the effort you have put in to keep it going !!" Maurice Raviol ('44) [Founder of the AALFNY] "I think you're doing a fantastic job for both the Lycee and its alums." Gabrielle Griswold ('44) "Je serais tout à fait contente de participer à votre association et de recevoir la "newsletter" que vous adressez aux anciens élèves du lycée dont je garde un souvenir inoubliable. Je vous félicite de votre initiative." Claudine Herrmann ('44) CLASS OF 1947 "Bravo! Merci pour votre travail." Perry Gaskell ('47) "Thanks for keeping in touch and bringing us all the News from the Lycee." Audrey (Clarke) Kelm ('47) "Congratulations to you on your email and the magazine." Edward Gaskell ('47) "Magnificent newsletter. Nostalgia envelopes me when reading the names of old classmates like Jean Arabo, Kevin Egan, Consuelo Eames, Anne Boulin, Mr. Brodin. .........Many thanks for your loving efforts." Audrey (Clarke) Kelm ('47) CLASS OF 1949 "You did a great job! Thank you. And I have forwarded the newsletter to the members of Alix Deguise`s family." Eléonore M. Zimmermann ('49) CLASS OF 1950 "Thank you for what you do" Anne (Benech) Cirier ('50) "You are producing a terrific newsletter...full of interesting documents. It must take an enormous amount of work to get all this together. Thank you." Denise Bystryn Kandel ('50) CLASS OF 1951 "Pour ne pas être un trouble-fête, mais j'ai devant moi la brochure du LFNY, Automne 2005, digne de celles des grands magasins de la 5e avenue. Le grand problème dans ce bouquin est l'existence d'une autre association des anciens régie par un C.B. Kende, tête du comité d'anciens élèves. Il y a aussi une longue liste d'anciens perdus. Le format - prénom/nom de famille - fait une comparaison avec le votre très penible. En plus, les recherches commencent en 1968. Est-ce qu'on nous considère comme croulants ou macchabées? :-) Et le site, alumni@lfny.org , est criblé de messages, 'en construction' ou 'page demandée est introuvable' Je m'excuse mais tout ceci m'a un peu tracassé car l'esprit cartésien est un legs de la 95e rue et les complications inutiles sont toujours de trop." John Clarke ('51) CLASS OF 1953 "Keep up the good work and thanks." Peter Herford ('53) CLASS OF 1954 "I am delighted to hear from you and read about the Association. It's like the distant past catching up with you. I shall look forward to reading your newsletter. Thank you for getting in touch." Michel Strauss ('54) CLASS OF 1955 "Je voulais juste vous remercier pour tous vos efforts, qui permettent à l'Association de (sur)vivre! J'aimerais que d'autres anciens de mon année se manifestent mais ils semblent introuvables." Nadine Vitols Dixon ('55) CLASS OF 1956 "I sure appreciate all the great work you are doing." Waldemar Kasriels ('56 et Prof.) CLASS OF 1958 "The newsletter looks not only terrific, but informative and relevant! Congratulations!! I have been considering offering a similar service to my college class Columbia '61 and you are an inspiration." Philippe de la Chapelle ('58) "You're doing great things for the Alumni, congratulations!" Philippe de La Chapelle ('58) "Superbe! Bravo et encore, merci!" Philippe de la Chapelle ('58) "I read with great interest the "Alumni and Prof's on the Internet" column in your latest issue." Dr. Alexander Rossolimo ('58) CLASS OF 1959 ".....thank you for the work you’re doing. I do look forward to reading the next newsletter....." Rosette (Winger) Tucker ('59) « Merci beaucoup (vraiment beaucoup) for doing this ! » Laurence (Thiollier) Moscato ('59) CLASS OF 1960 "Congratulations on a great job." Théodore de Wyzewa ('60) “Ton rôle est important --celui de liaison entre les anciens du lycée. Quelle surprise en 2009, 50 ans après avoir quitte le lycée, de recevoir des emails de ces ex copains d'école. Très sympa. Depuis j'échange encore quelques emails de temps en temps avec certains. ” Jean-Jacques Richard (’60) "Grace au mail que je vous ai envoyé et que vous avez publié j'ai été contacté par plusieurs anciens et anciennes du Lyçée. je vous en remercie vivement car cela me fait un immense plaisir de retrouver le passé sans nostalgie!!" Colette (Maluski) Touchon ('60) « Félicitations pour votre publication de novembre. Très bonne réalisation et édition. De même pour les infos alumni en ligne. Il est facile de naviguer et de trouver ce que l'on cherche. C'est très bien organisé. » Jean-Jacques Richard (’60) CLASS OF 1961 "Thank you for your efforts in trying to find us (my sister and myself). It is most appreciated. I will be visiting the site and taking advantageous of the offer to find our classmates... Bravo pour l'excellent travail." Catherine Loudes ('61) "You are doing a wonderful job of helping us all to keep in touch with old friends--or, as in my case, to get back in touch with them. Hats off to you. I'm grateful to be able to peruse the whole web site." Michel-André Bossy (’61) "Thank you so much for sending me this. I read it with great alacrity--and appreciation." Jill Newman Iversen ('61) " 'Bravo' for [your] web site qui réunit les anciens élèves du lycée français de NY." Hervé Ségalen ('61) "Congratulations on all your work."

Yveline Arnaud ('63) "You have no idea what a present you have given me! I have been looking for ....my long lost friend since 1968. I can't wait to mail her, I am beside myself with joy! Thank you so, so much. And through your email [service] I have been contacted by other long lost friends....who found me only through you and we are all meeting for a 40 year graduation reunion on June 21 in Provence!...So this Lycee network you organized is fantastic. OUT of this world!" Alda Popa ('63) “Thank you again for a wonderful newsletter. So many nice memories.” Jan (Arnold) Broecker ('63) "Thank you for a very wonderful newsletter. Because of you I found [two dear friends]. I loved the lycee.....very great memories." Jan (Broecker) Arnold ('63) CLASS OF 1964 "Thank you for the good job you do in always keeping us informed." Chantal Sironneau-Rodriguez ('64) "I take this opportunity to thank AALFNY.....for the tremendous work done to keep us informed, thus preserving the memory of these lost days." Antoine Comte ('64) "Merci pour tout le travail que vous faites pour nous tenir informés." Clio Exchaquet-Cherpillod ('64) "Thanks again for all the wonderful work you do to keep us Alumni close together, it is a great gift for everybody." Evelyn (Wahl) Soum ('64) “Thanks Roger, I opened the email announcement of the new bulletin at 6 this morning, and now, almost 5 hours later, I have read the whole thing, clicked every link, and watched every UTubian class mate's videos.

J’imagine le travail gigantesque que cela requiert de votre part ! Merci ! » Viviane Guerdan (’64) "Wonderful work on the Lycée Alumni web page!...Fun to see names of classmates that I had forgotten about." Michel Vonderweidt (‘64) "Thanks for this, it is absolutely great to see the great work AALFNY does. I have discovered it yesterday just par hasard!!.......Je suis éblouie d'avoir retrouvé des noms familiers sur ce site." Evelyne (Wahl) Soum ('64) "....spent 2 hours surfing the site. WOW!! very nice site. I often wonder where all the copains went to...first loves and best friends forever.... A few tears for those I see are no longer with us. Keiffer, Cerisoles (Nanette). I could not find any news on Kastriels(staff-PE), we were at Mrs Mount's camp together for many,many years. So many have scattered in the winds....I hope your work will bring us back together." "You are truly devoted to this and I thank you for the goose bumps I get when I visit the Alumni site." Christian Helfer('64) "J’ai été très ému de voir les photos....Que de souvenirs!.....Toujours très intéressant de voir les parcours variés des anciens amis, surtout après presque un demi siècle!"

Steve Ditlea ('65) « J’ai donc parcouru, très attentivement (pendant des heures !) le site de LFNYALUMNI ! FORMIDABLE ! Si, si ! Remarquable travail ! J’ai presque tout lu, toutes les rubriques, etc. J’ai même consulté le site de ma « class mate » Danielle Steel (jamais ouvert un de ses bouquins, mais j’en découvre un nouveau tous les mois en librairie ! Quel talent, cette promotion 1965 !) Encore BRAVO !” Pierre Allain (’65) "The site is vastly improved! Your tribute to Tibou is excellent - Thank you." Sandra Haas ('65) "Je viens d'apprendre la nouvelle de la mort de M. Claude Choquet, et en lisant les lignes que lui dédie Gabin Christian Langue Tsobgny ’85, je demeure frappé en y retrouvant exactement les mêmes traits que j'avais remarqués et appréciés comme élève de M. Choquet... vingt ans auparavant! Cette constance dans l'effort didactique et intellectuel de ce professeur exceptionnel, certainement celui dont les enseignements m'ont le plus marqué au cours de mon passage au Lycée, me semble digne de mention en ce moment où plusieurs générations d'élèves de Philosophie du Lycée new-yorkais lui rendent ce dernier hommage." Victor de la Serna ('65) "I can't tell you what an emotional moment it was to read about some of my classmates mentioned on the website. When I started in 1953 (I have all the yearbooks if you need them) the classes were small and we all new each other. I knew Naomi Schor even though she was two years older. I was very sad to hear about her passing. I remember you [Roger Liwer ‘68] as being the tallest in your class (two years younger). Robert Ayache is the only person I kept in touch with on and off. I will now be keeping in touch with the Alumni." David Passigli (’65) "Just wanted to thank you: With the help of your newsletter, I was able to get in touch again with two old classmates." Tuyet Ha Vinh ('65) "Thanks for you efforts keeping happy memories alive!" Dominique Pettit ('65) “If no one has told you lately, I will tell you that you are doing a fabulous job juggling all of us and producing this newsletter. In effect, you are in charge of what was promised to me, back in 1964: an alumni association that would keep us in touch no matter where we roamed on this planet. Thank you.” Sandra Haas (’65) CLASS OF 1966 "Thank you for the wonderful work you are doing." Paul Oppenheim ('66) “Thank you for your all your efforts in keeping track of us and editing the archives and class notes. It is really so precious to be able to keep in touch through the Alumni Newsletter!” Paul Oppenheim (’66) "You deserve every accolade for all your hard work!" Diana Henry ('66) “Thank you for an outstanding newsletter.” Irène Finel-Honigman ('66) "Thank you for all your hard alumni work. It is much appreciated." Elizabeth (Loudes) McLaughlin ('66) "Thank you for your very valuable work." Dominique Pettit ('66) "Encore félicitations pour le site." Henri-Armand Kohn ('66) "I have looked forward to your emails over the years and enjoyed reading about my fellow alumni.....You are doing a great job!" Elizabeth (Loudes) McLaughlin ('66) "Congratulations on a job very well done!" Diana Henry ('66) "Seeing [the pictures of Martin Kieffer] and reading the related articles actually brought tears to my eyes! He really was one great guy and amply deserved the award. The world needs more of his kind. [My sister] Jacqueline will be very touched by his words because I know she cared for him very much." Raymond Morini ('66) "Just wanted to thank you for all your efforts in trying to locate my long lost friends. By the same token, I take this opportunity to compliment you on your excellent job performance in giving so many of us the opportunity to renew our old ties and friendships." Yola (Magloire) Lanzlinger ('66) "I tried out your "find a classmate" What fun! You are doing a great job. Thank you."

It seems more and more alumni are popping up.” JJ Lamarche (’67) « Avec mes félicitations pour le travail effectué et mes cordiales salutations.» Gilles Maluski (’67) "The site is wonderful and I'd like to congratulate you on a job well done. I enjoyed every minute I spent reading and catching up with old classmates and teachers. Thanks for accomplishing such a 'labor of love'!" Marie-France Prosperi Forbin (’67) "You are doing a great job." Camille (Nathan) Maseda ('67) "I always enjoy reading the new editions of the newsletter, class notes in particular." Gerard ("JJ") Lamarche, ('67) "Thank you for this trip down memory lane. I enjoyed every minute of it!" Marie-France Prosperi Forbin ('67) "Thanks and congratulations for an unabated dedication to the news letter. It keeps them young, as they say.... Keep on trucking."

A touching sentimental journey.” Suzanne Dache (’69) "Thank you for your efforts to keep our class connected." Claudine (Clarke) Elian ('69) "Merci pour tout le travail que tu fais et ta dédication. Nous en sommes tous les bénéficiaires!" C.C. (Claudine Clarke) Elian ('69) "[I went to your] website and was amazed to see familiar faces from the very start. It is very touching to read news that is 40 years in the making. I look forward to the newsletters......We who have let ourselves get lost from the school crowd owe a debt of gratitude to you and those who maintain such a point de rencontre." Claudine C.C. (Clarke) Elian ('69) "Thanks for doing a great job!" Jean-Marie Clarke ('69) "...thanks again to you and the others who help make and keep the alumni and alumnae a community." Alexandra Bonfante-Warren ('69) "Thanks to you and everyone involved in the web site and newsletter--great job!" Alexandra Bonfante-Warren ('69) "J'adore la photo de notre classe sur le site internet. Cela m'a permis de me souvenir de beaucoup de gens que j'avais oubliés." Carole (Vonderweidt) Hansen ('69) "What a wonderful site! I've periodically searched the Internet for info about the Lycée, and this time I hit the jackpot. You are doing a great job. I can't believe all the names I still recognize. I left the Lycée after Troisième as I left NYC, but I still have very fond memories of skating at Wollman Rink, fencing in the ballroom, New Year's Eve dinners at Patrick Jacques', parties in Glen Cove at the Marescot's, going to camp at M. Kasriels and on and on..." Puck Wullenweber (’69) "What a wonderful accomplishment! Here I was, sitting down at my desk trying to figure out shortcuts so I could let my staff out early, and waiting for some documents, and I become mesmerized by the Classnotes for the Class of '69, each name a memory, figuring out how to get in touch, etc. Just a note, though, is in order first to thank you for all you've done and are doing." Steven O. Goldschmidt ('69) " 'La nostalgie n'est plus ce qu'elle était,' some say. Well, to judge from the AALFNY website, nostalgia is certainly alive and well with the Lycée alumni. It brings back wonderful memories. I unfortunately haven't kept track of many of my classmates, apart from one obvious one - my wife, Jacqueline Moreau '69!- which is why it was such a joy to have discovered this website.Thanks and congratulations." Alphonse Bernard ('69) "I was delighted and astounded to get a call last week from Peter Laurence '66,with whom I hadn't spoken in more than 30 years. I have since looked at the alumni web site and the "Find a Classmate" feature. Congratulations on setting all this up. It was a great idea. I plan to contact some other old classmates - people I had given up hope of ever locating." Paul Bernstein ('69) "Bravo on the website and all the efforts you have put into this. I used to be part of the AALF and it has come a long way." Denise (Raab) Jacobs ('69) "I've spent well nearly an hour looking at all of the various sections in this latest newsletter...This site must represent something different for each alumnus, but I've no doubt that each of us who views it goes back to that place when we were all together, youthful and undifferentiated as to where we were all headed. Thank you for the fine work, the going above and beyond that it clearly evidences, and the added bonus of the artist's section. We just don't know what is inside of a person until they show it to us." C.C. (Claudine Clarke) Elian ('69) "Nice job on the newsletter and the pictures" Remy Ayache ('69) "I really enjoying all the new content on the AALFNY site."

You have done a superlative job!" Victor Aboulaffia ('70) "Thank you for keeping this going." Suzanne Singer ('70) "I am so impressed. I have just spent an hour looking through all the photos, reading everything, and just generally visiting your Alumni site. You have done a wonderful job. It was certainly a journey back."

You're doing a really great job!"

Vivian (Wayne) Henderson ('71) CLASS OF 1972 “I would like to thank you for all the work you do for AALFNY.

Because the Lycée was such a special experience, it makes you want that much more to stay connected and be kept informed on what's up with other alumni- strangely, even more so as the years go by. Please send me absolutely anything and everything having to do with Lycée alumni news. I'd be interested in a reunion in Paris of Lycéens too I would expect there's quite a bunch of us here, mine de rien."

I had many friends working in the Towers, and I thank God on many occasions that every single one of them made it out alive…But as I was reading Pierre Oury (’85)'s class notes, I thought perhaps he was flying over New York yesterday, July 4th 2002, and felt reassurance that someone I had shared memories with so many years ago was taking care of us."
