Claire and Tom hosted their annual March family get together in Florida. Tom prepared the main course and Claire prepared the rest of the meal, including some great gluten free desserts. One never goes hungry or thirsty when visiting Italian relatives.

Attending the get together were Bob and Elaine, daughter Leslie, Ben and Sandy, Claire and Tom's son Jeff with his wife Nicole and daughter Julia and Vince and Eva.

On Friday evening, Oct 16, Bob Muschlitz was inducted into the Kutztown University Hall of Fame, along with 5 other athletes, during ceremonies at the university.

Bob's bio from Kutztown University's website:



Robert Muschlitz was a member of the football team from 1961-64. Nicknamed “Bethlehem Bobby”, Muschlitz played every game of his collegiate career as a fullback and a halfback. Muschlitz was named MVP of the Homecoming football game as a freshman.

He was the team MVP following his sophomore, junior and senior years. One of the “Touchdown Twins” during his time at KU, Muschlitz led the team in rushing from 1962-64. He was selected as the starting fullback in the Gem Bowl, a small-college all-star game for players from Pennsylvania, Ohio and New York.

In addition to playing football, Muschlitz, was a member of the “Statesmen”, the KSC Dance Band, Resident Men’s Association and the Freshman Customs Committee. Muschlitz served as the head football coach at Solanco and was an assistant coach at Franklin & Marshall College, which won a fourth consecutive Middle Atlantic Conference Southern Division Championship.

Following his graduation from Kutztown, Muschlitz taught special education classes at Solanco High School and he developed an intergenerational program for “at risk” students. His “Generations Together” program was highly regarded and was awarded the Pennsylvania state “Service Learning Award” for the Solanco School District. He won the Employee of the Year Award from the Solanco School District for the 1997-98 school year. Muschlitz, who received his degree in elementary education and special education, is married with two children. He earned his masters degree from Temple U in 1977. He is a retired educator and coach.

While Jane has been taking care of Aunt Cora and providing us with updates on her condition, she and her 4 sisters ran as a relay team in the Lehigh Valley Marathon for Via on September 13, 2009.

The five sisters have been in training since early spring of this year. Ruthann ran the first leg, 5.6 miles, Melissa ran the second leg of 6.2, Ellen ran third at 4.8 miles, Jane ran the fourth leg of 5.8 miles and Liz was our anchor at 3.8 miles.

We traveled in Ruthann's van, as we dropped off team members at the designated start/end points, so as one member came in from their run, we all cheered them on as the next team member took off on their leg.

Teams started at the Lehigh Valley Hospital on Cedar Crest Boulevard in Allentown then made their way with checkpoints along the city streets of Allentown. Then down to a scenic run along the towpath between the Lehigh River and Lehigh Canal. The race ended in downtown Easton near Centre Square, where, as a team, we followed our sister, Elizabeth, across the finish line.

We raised a total of $500 for VIA of the Lehigh Valley to help physically and mentally challenged children and adults.
