"Thanks Alan for the walk down memory lane. I have been at Poblocki signs(Sales) for 28 years and have been married to a St Marys girl for 34 years (Debbie Gavin/Rogahn). We make our home in the Town of Vernon which is between Big Bend and Waukesha. I have three grown children, Adam (29), Brooke (27) and Jamie Lynn (24). I have two granddaughters, Kendall age 3 and Aubree age 1. I have attached a photo of Aubree sitting in my lap. I occasionally run into Jimmy Miazga, Al Singer and Eddie Zemlak and still share a birthday with Cindy Guss/ Morrissey. Mark Poblocki is still partial owner of Poblocki Sign Co.. His Dad (Jerry) will soon be 82 years old and he still works everyday. Marks younger brother Paul (14 years younger that Mark) runs the interior sign division. My next door neighbor and good old buddy Jeff Woods is definitely still working and living in Vegas at the Rio. Unfortunating the last time I saw Him was in 1982 when we went to a Brewers playoff game togethor against the Angels. Thanks again Al and maybe our paths will cross someday at a reunion."
