9th Southwest Florida Event The "Perkin-Elmer Spirit" is alive and well in the Sunshine State!! That was evident at the 9th Southwest Florida Retiree Club luncheon on March 25 at the Boca Royale Golf & Country Club in Englewood. Forty-five Retiree Club members and spouses gathered in the Fairway Room amid animated conversations, laughter and camaraderie. The moderator set the tone by declaring that there are no housekeeping rules, "keep your cell phones on, take pictures and just have fun within the law," said Don Mahon. There were several new faces, and missing were a half dozen regulars dealing with medical issues. Special recognition was given to couples who traveled long distances. Bill and Fay Toth flew in from San Dimas, California, Dave and Barbara Stackpole drove down from Brevard, North Carolina, as did Frank and Ronnie Bulson from Bluffton, South Carolina. Others traveled from all corners of the huge state of Florida. Two former Perkin-Elmer nurses were on hand and took a bow. Evelyn Prusak served employees at 50 and 77 Danbury Road and Pat McWhirt was the nurse at Wooster Heights. When Frank Bulson was introduced, he let loose with one of his infamous shrieks from his 22 years as "Junior," the upstart little kid, in the Joey Zelle Children's Christmas Shows. Today, "Stumpy," as he is known, is a member of his community's chorus that had the honor of performing recently at the Vatican. The late Ray Hellman was remembered as never missing the luncheons. He passed away 12 days before the event and was missed. Raffle winners of bottles of wine and sleeves of golf balls were Lorie Kerber, Art Morello, Joe Malandrakis, "Stumpy" Bulson, Jane Sebestyen and Peggy Heffernan. Luncheon arrangements were coordinated by Ginni and Don Mahon. At the conclusion of the luncheon, a poll was taken and interest is high to hold a special 10th reunion next year aboard a luxury yacht. Arrangements will be made to hold the event aboard the "Harbor Lady" for a relaxing, 3-hour scenic cruise of Charlotte Harbor. The "Harbor Lady" departs from Fisherman's Village in Punta Gorda. More details will appear in future issues.
