Mystery Classmate 070

Congratulations to Margaret Fleming Rintamaa, Melissa Mahoney Kortyna, Ron Levick, Amy Baer Davie, and Rich Reschoff, all of whom correctly identified Maribeth Mahoney ('87) as Mystery Classmate #70 and are listed in the order that their responses were received.

In case you were wondering, Maribeth Mahoney Misitis lives in Butler, PA, and has been married to her husband John for nine years. They have three children – Zachary (7), Paige (4), and Ty (2) – and Maribeth expects a fourth on September 28. She contends, “As for the photo that my favorite brother-in-law sent in, no, that is not what I look like while dancing . . . ok, maybe a little. (My husband does compare my dancing skills to those of Elaine from Seinfeld.) Regardless, that was taken during a competitive game of Guesstures with my family. I was giving the clue ‘horseback riding’.”

Many classmates had fond memories of Maribeth. Her sister Melissa noted that Maribeth “is still the same sweet person she always was and would do absolutely anything for me. We are both at-home moms and live within 15 minutes of each other, so I call on that sweet nature for help all the time.” Perhaps to assuage a guilty conscience, Jim Thompson noted that Maribeth is “lovely and talented.” Jim, thanks for submitting the photo.

Rich Reschoff got a little excited. He wrote, “i took her to the Prom! she is looking real good! what was i thinking when we stop hanging together!! wow! too bad she is married & has like 4 kids! great to see her again! looking good Maribeth oooootalatka Maribeth!!!”

Rich may not be the only one who messed up. Ron Levick wrote, “TOO BAD BAER!!!! MB looks great!!”

Karen Campbell Ricci guessed Maureen Mahoney, but not before noting that “the face kind of looks like Donna Andreas Copley, but I don't believe she has ever had her hair styled that way, and she doesn't dance like that either...”

Pam Van Cara Collis guessed Carrie Schadle, adding “hard to see the face with the dance pose.” Leann Impavido Mendenhall guessed Natalie Marshall, and remembered how Natalie “used to JINGLE through the halls.” Jerry Koutavas guessed Stephanie Papazis, noting that Stephanie is of Greek descent.

Scott Silverman guessed Cheryl Tiegs. Ted Showers guessed Charo.
