West End Reu_n ion fun-t!me memories
Hi Jim,
Please try to use some of the pictures
from the 2009 reunion in the "West Ender."
I truly enjoyed sharing memories with some
of my dearest -childhood friends ·during the
celebration. I'm going to try to make as
many of these reunions in the future. If I can travel all the way from South
Carolina then I would hope thatthose living
in Massachusetts can do the same. Come on
guys, we shouldn't make it so hard to spend
time with other West Enders.
Thanks again Jim for all your efforts.

A look back at my life
I was born at 10 Leverett St. in 1936. My grandmother had a rooming house
there an_d my father had a
TV repair shop.
My father's name was
Lisle Bassett and my grandparents were Andrew and
Lempi Bassett. When I got
married in 1955, the West
End was still there. My
father bought a .house in
Gloucester when my brother was born in 1945. But
he kept his business there.
Their building was one that
was taken by eminant domain. (My rear) Mass General wanted it for expansion.
When we were young my
sister and I went to St. Joseph's School and Church.
. The boys were in one building, the girls in another. We
lived at 17 N. Anderson St. .
I bet the BRA didn't dare
touch ·McLillan St. · My sister and I went there in 1945,
1944,1943 and 1942 I think.
I had three friends there:
Eleanor Snow, Carlene
Womack and Marie Campanella, We used to walk up
Beacon, cross Cambridge,
up another ·hill and walk
through the state house.
The guard would always
ask "where are you going
girls?" and we'd tell . him
Fannie Farmers, Woolworth's, Public Gardens,
frog pond; swan boats, etc.
Sometimes we went down
