I just read the article about Saugerties and I got so homesick. I lived in Saugerties from 1932 to 1941. My father owned a very large grocery store across the Elks club. I went to school with Ann Cahill, Barbara Vosdick, Albert Cutler, Albert Whitiker. If any of these people remember me and would like to say hello, my maiden name was Roberta Schuster. now Roberta Lessman. Saugerties is my most favorite place in the world. My happiest years were there prior to my marriage. I now live in Florida but if anyone would like to get in touch, my e-mail address is R2L2@aol.com.

A write up sent in from a former resident. Hello - "Wow" was my reaction yesterday when I found Saugerties
in the Escapes section of the Times. As a young girl I spent many
summers with my family and extended family on a farm in Saugerties and to this day( 55 or so years later), still have wonderful memories of
it. It was a farm owned by the Bitterman family and they rented out
rooms in the large guest house. I can clearly remember going to a
wonderful swimming hole nearby...etc., etc.. and of course, the
great meals that "grandma" Bitterman made. Are there any members
of the Bitterman family still in the area...OR, is there anyone who might
know where anyone of them presently lives? I clearly remember
Catherine, one of the daughters.
One day I'll take a daytrip up to Saugerties with my sister. Until then,
allow me to wish you and your staff a very Happy, Healthy New Year
with continued prosperity.
