Is Jack Lynch still with us?

He was such a nice guy.

“Quite a cast of characters came and went under my employ, I won’t mention names but you know who you are. Projectionists who bar-b-q’d outside on the rooftop, cashiers and concession clerks who showed up when they wanted to and ushers who kept count of the beers they confiscated made the place interesting.”

I’m the staghand who painted that freekin dome in the lobby. Remember how much fun that was? I hope the years have been kind to you- you were always good to me

Kevin (‘79-'82)

I worked for Sylvia Sheer from ‘79-'82. She was quite a person, as well as a manager. I will never forget how she talked me into saving $10 from every check (she held it) To help me learn to save money. She would get mad if I didn’t walk across the tracks when I bought coffee, just to save a nickle! She was very cold sometimes on the outside but always a sweetheart on the inside. I miss her. How is she and Irv? I hate to ask.

My most un-favorite marquee change was RPC. Three sets of double sided signage.

What happened to Mike? I know he went to Southgate but never talked to him after ‘82. He was always very cool with me. I liked his style.

I was employed by the GCC from 1979-1982, and maintained/changed the marquees, and assisted in theater maintenace, at four properties(Southgate, Randall Park, Mayland, Shoregate- as well as the Vogue for RKO)

Any pictures that can be shared would be sincerely appreciated. I am most interested in Southgate, because I fell from that roof in ‘79. I was on a straight ladder at the top of the marquee, leaned out too far and fell first to the roof, then momemtum carried me off the roof to the concrete.

I remember installing the sensoround, and what a big deal it was at the time.
What happened to Dave Manthie, or the regional director?
