CLASS OF 1969 - 50 Years    

CLASS OF 1970 - 50 Years

The Classes of 1970 from Union Catholic Girls High School and Union Catholic Boys High School were to have celebrated their 50th Graduation Anniversary in May.  The in-person event was postponed, but the Class of 1970 spirit and support for UC never waned.  They have continued to give generously to the new Class of 1970 Endowed Scholarship. Equally impressive are the number of written messages and video congratulations sent from the 1970 UC alumni to the graduates of the Class of 2020. Those greetings were incorporated into the official UC Class of 2020 Graduation pre-party video for all to see and hear.  Congratulations UC Class of 1970 on 50 years!

CLASS OF 1974 - Holiday Get Together

CLASS OF 1974 - 45 Years    

It was an amazing night when the Class of 1974 came together at the Best Western in Murray Hill for their 45-Year Reunion.  The lead committee members, Rich Fedison, Loretta Santacroce, and Michele Savage, worked non-stop to track down and personally invite their classmates, resulting in a fabulous turn out.  Other committee members added extra special touches, including illuminated centerpieces that featured yearbook pictures of every attendee.  The Class of ‘74 gifted Union Catholic with a generous donation, for which UC is incredibly grateful. It will be used to establish the Class of 1974 Endowed Scholarship, with the hopes that the scholarship will be fully funded by the time they celebrate their 50th Graduation Anniversary in 2024.  Perhaps the greatest tribute was this observation from a spouse who attended the reunion, “I am in awe of the phenomenal class spirit and loyalty that the alumni have for Union Catholic. God bless you all!”

CLASS OF 1989 - 30 Years

The Class of 1989 spent many high school summer days enjoying the Jersey Shore. So, when it came time to plan their 30-year reunion, Long Beach Island was the obvious choice.  Classmates were given the date more than one year in advance, so many scheduled their family vacations in conjunction with the reunion.  Whether they stayed for the weekend, a week, or even a month, they were happy to be “down the shore” together again. The formal reunion was held on Friday night, but extended well into Saturday afternoon for many!  Their class Facebook page is filled with photos and videos, including these THEN/NOW versions. Not only did the Class of 1999 make a generous donation to UC, they also raised funds in memory of their recently deceased classmate and donated to her parish as well.  Kudos to Paul Martinho, Kristin Horan Laffey, Anne Ventola, Kathleen Karl Morgante, Trisha Murray Dulinski, Michelle Rundzieher Antonelli, and Michele Calogero-Duca for a super event.

CLASS OF 1994 - 25 Years

To be able to celebrate your 25^th Graduation Anniversary is a special occasion, and the members of the Class of 1994 who came back to their alma mater to mark 25 years truly had a special time.  As soon as they entered the front door at UC, they were hugging each other as if they had not been together since 1994 - and in many cases that was accurate!  No worries, they were instantly reunited and sharing life stories.  The current UC Student Ambassadors who were on hand to conduct building tours were touched by the camaraderie, and vowed NOT to lose touch once they graduate. The 1994 alumni visited science classrooms, lounged in the cafeteria, and posed for photos on the stage in the auditorium.  The party continued with food and drink in the library. Some members of the Class of 1994 had been together through elementary school and high school; such a strong bond. The class was happy to see a  "surprise" guest at the reunion, Mr Bruce Zehnle. A special thanks to Lauren Casa who helped coordinate this milestone event and to track down “missing” classmates. 

CLASS OF 1999 - 20 Years    

A fun time was had by all, as the Class of 1999 gathered together at Stage House Tavern in Somerset on September 14, to celebrate their 20-Year Reunion.  Of course there was food and drink, accompanied by plenty of laughs while looking through old yearbooks, and stories that began with “Remember when…”  The classmates ended the evening asking the reunion committee when they would begin planning for their milestone reunion of 25 years! Thank you to Andrea daFonseca Housel, Derrick Levine, Kathy Karasiewicz-Mendez and especially Tiana Mayes for all of their hard work.  Union Catholic gratefully thanks the "99ers" for their very generous gift back to their alma mater; may you all be blessed!
