    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..

gerry 7Graduation Hicksville 1961 Fifty Year Reunion Sep 2011

Graduated high school in 1961 and was married in 1962. My first wife and I had three children. I started a business in 1965 that was successful and functioning into 2011. It was time for me to take a back seat in 2010, so I sold my interest and began working as a consultant and that capacity continues today.

I used to hang out at Peppercorns. This facility is now a restaurant and used to be across the street in the same location as the Marie Street Firehouse. It actually was the first firehouse on Marie Street. As Hicksville expanded, so did the need for a more modern structure, so the brick firehouse was built. However, what gets done with the old wooden structure? Let's move it across the street and that was done.

Marie Street Firehouse

I met Lynn Olson (class of 1963) at Peppercorns in 1997. We dated for many years and finally we married 17 October 2004. Lynn had one child when we married and now our menagerie of children have blessed us with 7 grandchildren.

Never served in the military and presently enjoy Golf, Boating and Fishing.

I still maintain friendships with many of my neighborhood classmates and we get together for dinner and drinks.

As far as making any changes in my life since high school I wouldn't change a thing! Lynn and I currently live in Islandia, New York .
