    newHickLogoThank you to Kenneth Arnold, Class of 1965, for contacting us. Although the biography was hidden on the website, we thought our readers would like to read about The Dynamics, so we are featuring it here this month. We have a new article from Dr. Kumpikas and a new addition to Ron Wencer's Ancient Hixtory: an article about Leon Galloway! The Hicksville Gregory Museum is in financial distress. Thank you to Ryan Vicino for the article and information about how you can help.  We are happy our readers are using the Member Comments, and they appear at the end of this month's newsletter.  When you are logged into the site, scroll to the bottom of an article and leave us a comment!

Pat Graduation Pat & GrandsonAfter graduation from Hicksville High, I attended St. John's University in Queens . I graduated as a permanently certified teacher in NY State.

I taught in the Commack district for 7 yrs as a third grade teacher.

My husband's name was Ron Caporale. We were married for 38 yrs and then he suddenly passed away on Christmas night. We were driving home from my son's house after a family holiday dinner.

I continued to teach and presently teach part time at a private school in Northport NY .

In my spare time I take care of my daughter's son, Johnny. The daughter is a full time Kindergarten teacher. I also belong to a gym, walk with friends and play with my dog Frankie.

I would like to take a yoga class but I have to find the time. I love to travel and have been on 7 cruises.

Additionally, I toured the Canadian Rockies and visited San Francisco , Seattle and Colorado .

I am thrilled to have recently re-connected with 2 friends through Classmates. There are many more out there I would like to reach.
