To my knowledge, the only other time our Four Coins formally performed in Canonsburg, was back in the late 1950’s. This indelible performance found them on-stage in the auditorium next to Canonsburg High School. As you may remember, the singing group was then known as “The Four Keys”.
A recent email from Jeanne Mantalis indicated:: “The Four Coin’s next gig is October 11, 2008 in Aliquippa, Pa for a Greek convention. We’re not sure what the holidays may present. Thereafter, the Coins will be appearing at the Palace Theater in Greensburg, Pa March 6, 2009 with Bo Wagner, a duplicate of the CMHS show. Also, in April 2009 at several locations in the Pocono’s.”

The clock of life is wound but once
And no man has the power
To tell just when the hands will stop
At late or early hour.
Now is the only time you own.
Live, love, toil with a will.
Place no faith in time.
For the clock may soon be still.

Recently came across some memorabilia and reminders of when I proudly served with the Navy – Hurricane Hunters – Jacksonville, Fl and Fleet Hurricane Center – Miami, FL.
As a member of the Hurricane Hunter squadron, my job was to gather and send weather related data from around and inside the eye of the storm we were tracking.
Penetrating the wall of the storm was a scary experience with the winds, turbulence and rapid change in altitude(as much as 1000′ in a few secs).
Once inside the storm, the serene eeriness of the eye was amazing.
While inside the eye we would fly around taking weather observations at various altitudes from each quadrant of the storm eye . Depending on the size of the storm’s eye, we could be inside for as much as an hour.
Completing our mission, we would penetrate back out, always exiting from the milder Northeast quadrant of the storm.
As we returned to base we would prepare and transmit the accumulated weather data and observations back to the Fleet Hurricane Center.
Typically, each of our flights, round trip would last 12 hours. Dick Garboski
