Comments: We shared a duplex with the Flynns. Across the driveway was the Bourgeois family and they shared a duplex with the Wells family. Across the street was the O'Donnells and Timmy Parsons. The Johnsons and Pointers shared a duplex next to them. Across Citadel was the Davis family (cousins of the Flynns) and the Chafe family.

Comments: These comments make me smile.. I too, remember Marlene Gaudet and Mrs. Green from the pool. I also remember swimming lessons with Chess Sheppard when I moved to Shilo at 11 years old. Remained there until I got married in 1979, 30 years has flown by!!! I lived there from 1970(gr6) until 1980. I lived at 115 Kingston Ave. with my parents Ernie and Doris and older brothers Les (Buckie), Doug and my little brother Joey. My mom passed away there suddenly in 1974. Then we moved out to Sprucewoods. My father passed away there in 2002. Again, time flies.
Comments: We lived at 21 and 31 Larkhill. The first time was 1948 to about 1954, the second time was 1965 to 1966. My brother and played a little guitar. Him better than me, with Robert wells and Murry Booth on drums. Tim and I also played in the band for the Shilo variety show, in 66. We had a blast.

Comments: It is nice to see the guest book being used to re-connect Shlo Brats.
Without Otter (Dave Mulligan) having the wisdom to see a need to create this site and then take that thought and make it happen, we would not have this forum
For those of you that don't know, Otter stepped down from running this site a few years ago, since that time a Web Team was formed. This dedicated group has kept the site going and expanded it. Keep up the good work guys.
