I lived on Elmore Ave until 1979. Just off CHambers Ave near Prospect Avenue Elementry. Graduated ftom EMHS in 66.
I know of 7 EMS students between 66-69 who live in Te Villages.

I lived on Irving Pl just off Lenox Ave until 1980, Know exactly where Elmore is. Went to Prospect Ave School 1964-68 (which is now a housing development), so I'm about 10 years younger than you. My brother graduated EMHS 1964 as did my sister in law.

EM was a great place to grow up. It is not the same anymore. I still live on LI (Ronkonkoma) go to Borrelli's three times a year or so. I spend Jan thru May in TV and a month in October.

Last time I was on LI was for my Mom's funeral in 2011. Even Borelli's, a 70 year tradition wasn't the same. Most of the original owners in our neighborhood have passed and the new owners are completely different. Seems like everyone just goes their own way ignores their neighbors, quite a contrast with TV. At age 7 or 8 you could walk anywhere at night, now I'm not sure I would do that as an adult. As I look back, I think the turning point was when they built that 18 story monstrosity at Meadowbrook Hospital and turned it into NCMC and the dorms at Hofstra, giving the area its own skyline
