What did your Tommy Burns look like?
Please do ask around...it would be great if this is the same Tommy Burns that I once knew. He would be around 52 years old. Here's a pic of him from back in the 1960s. Tommy is the one on the left..my brother is the one on the right.

Yes, Tommy was a foster child and he grew up on Miles Avenue near the little grocery and candy stores. I knew Doris Files, went to school with Robert Files, and also knew Richard Files.
Doris was in my class for several years at PS 72. She was my first crush. Trouble was , she didn't know I was alive. The first of few females to break my heart !!
I always thought Doris was a very beautiful girl. I can definitely see how she could break your heart.
If I'm remembering correctly, I think the Files family used to host the Boy Scouts or some other group at their house. My oldest brother, who went to school with Richard Files, was in their group.

The names are familiar but I didn't know any of them personally. I do remember my younger brother mentioning these names though.
