It's so funny reading all this about how gorgeous she was because in school we were the nerdy geeks (don't think she'd mind me saying that). She has the most genuine and empathetic personality ever. I was looking her up also to see what happened to her and if she was considering attending our reunion in a year. If you talk to her, tell her to email me: melstjohn@yahoo.com.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-13537757.post-21726891128254478302008-07-08T02:03:00.000-07:002008-07-08T02:03:00.000-07:00I too was jealous of Abra Potkin and the only reas...I too was jealous of Abra Potkin and the only reason I am able to share that with you now is because I Googled her name and came across your blog.

Her parents are incredibly genuine people and her sister is just as lovely as she is. A truly great family.

She was as you describe. Everyone talked about THAT girl with the guitar and the songs, the hair and voice, the personal history and the promise. She worked in Hong Kong, then went to Harvard. I can't really remember her face now, couldn't recognize her in an airport.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
