    Dear Readers,
    We hope you enjoy our latest HixNews issue. As you read Wendy Elkis Girnis' article about Military Nurses,  you will notice she did not include Vietnam nurses or those who served in Iraq or Afghanistan. We hope our readers can supply first-hand accounts of those military heroes. If you were a military nurse or wounded or served in Iraq or Afghanistan, please send us some memories for our November issue. We will publish after Veterans' Day but we would still like to include those memories. Article contributions, suggestions, and news are always welcome. We would love to hear from you, too! Don't hesitate to get in touch with us at This email address is being protected from spambots. You need JavaScript enabled to view it..

The last 50 years have been good to me. I met my husband, Tom, 50 years ago, in 1960. Our meeting place was in West Hempstead . I married young after deciding not to attend college, had 3 children (1 girl, 2 boys) before I was 24 and had the opportunity to grow up with them and our 5 grandchildren (1 girl, 4 boys).

I was mostly a stay at home Mom (A New Term) until the youngest was around 12. Then the part time jobs began until I finally settled in working with my husband in his dental laboratory with many job titles: secretary, bookkeeper, etc. This continued until I decided to retire.

Tom and I presently live out on the beautiful North Fork of Long Island in Southold. In the winter, we are snowbirds and go to Punta Gorda in Florida for a few months.

I really enjoy reading and playing computer games. Most recently, working on the reunion had brought back many fond memories of friends and happy times!
