This was a great Wedding. We not only had Cathy and Jason as Bride and Groom, but we had all five Girls along with Mom & Dad. Of course Jason and Dad are not pictured.

2001 SEPTEMBER 11, 2001

We will always remember where we were (Marco Island House), when we got a call from a neighbor who just said:' They finally did it, turn on your TV." 

Naturally the TV was clicked on and we say smoke, and heard the initial report of a plane hitting one of the Twin Towers. We were in shock. All those thoughts raced through our minds such as "How is the Fire Dept. going to extinguish flames that high up" and "Will everyone get out OK?"

Minutes later we watched as a second plane hit the second World Trade Building.

1998 CINDY'S GRADUATION AND ZACHARY'S BIRTH - SOME BUSY DAYS

Oh what a day this was. Cindy scheduled to Graduate at Boston College, and Laura scheduled to deliver her first child. You can't be in both places at once. What do we do.

Command decision: Dad will go to Boston. Cathy will keep him company and Gram will ride shotgun. This gang got out of Town with no problems and settled in to see the Graduation in blistering heat. When it was over Dad got some deserved rest, while Gram sneaked Cathy out for a few drinks at CHEERS. Well the facts here are correct. Nice memory.

While half the family was out of Town Mom took charge and went with Laura to deliver her #1. His name was Zachary.

Some pictures of the Stars of the Post appear below, although they were not actually taken on that date. We had to work some "Future Pictures" into our story from 1998. Here they are.

DENNIS BEYER APPOINTED "CHIEF PROBATION OFFICER"

 

After a 28 year career as a member of the Essex County Probation Department, Dennis was appointed Chief Probation Officer in Middlesex County, NJ.

The First Day on the job Dennis drove 47 miles to his new office in New Brunswick to find nobody came to work that day due to a major snow and ice storm. He made sure to add his name to the list of those to be notified in the event of future storms.

The Sun arose the following day and made everyday bright throughout the remainder of his career. 

1985 CINDY & SHERMAN

Everyone thought this picture was lost forever, but a certain Dad kept it from being eliminated.  It is roughly from the 1985.  The "Dad" still has the photo.

1970 FRANKLIN ST, BELVIDERE, NJ

Dennis and Lois did not live here long, but for two years Belvidere was their home. This was the year that Cheryl was born in nearby Phillipsburg, NJ. These pictures include Dennis Aunt Florence, as well as his Mom and Dad. Take a look in Lois's lap. That is Denise.

1969 , PICTURES COVER 30 YEAR PERIOD OF HERMAN BEYER'S CAREER:

We have here a collection of pictures of Dennis' Dad - Herman W. Beyer. He retired after 37 years in 1969. He passed in Aug. 1974.

The earliest picture shows Herman as an Officer with the Newark P.D. in 1927. That's a long time ago.
