Alumni Fran Machina, '82, Pete Bonanno, '69,
and Mario Russo, '82, ran into each other at a

informed them that he was a 1969 graduate.
Bonanno was playing for the Hilton Head trav-
eling team. They shared stories of their wonder-
ful times at Bonaventure and all agreed it is a
magical place.

tions of Bona's graduates in May: Pictured
