Snyder-man needs some cheer

Remember Bob Snyder? He was a former Columbus bureau chief, asst. managing editor, reporter,etc, at the PD a while ago. During one of the various purges he left and went to Crain's as managing editor. He's retired from the Electric Institute in Columbus where the late Gerry Minery was his boss.

Bob's had some tough times lately because of health issues with diabetes and recently had spinal surgery with complication. He's at Highbanks Care Center, 111 Lazelle Rd, Columbus, OH 43235 and will be there for a while.

He's getting very bored, needless to say, and would love to hear from old friends. Cards, etc. would be a big boost. (Oct. 14, 2007)

Nighttown's the place

PD Alumni, retirees and expatriates:
Your invitations to the October lunch should have arrived. It will be Friday, Oct. 26, 2007 at noon at Nighttown, 12387 Cedar Rd, Cleveland Heights. Lunch will be $20.50 for a choice of roasted duck breast salad, dublin lawyer (lobster and mushrooms) and chevre chicken.

Call or email JoAnn Pallant at 440-734-1923 or Janet B. French at 216-221-2318 to make a reservation. Or just to chat.

You don't have to be retired to attend. We'd love to see working stiffs too. Of course they might get depressed to hear how much we like retirement.
