Now that my Internet is working again after severes winds did a number on it, I’m posting the April Monongah High alumni birthdays reminders.

Becky Shelosky Carvillano, Class of 1961, has a birthday today, April 16.

Shirley Knight Ritterhouse, Class of 1954, will have a birthday April 30.

Rebecca “Becky” Shelosky Carvillano comes from a long line of Sheloskys at Monongah High, including:

 

George Shelosky, Class of 1932.

Stanley Sheloski, Class of 1958.

G. Bernard Shelosky, Class of 1965.

Barbara Shelosky, Class of 1968, who moved from Monongah to San Diego, California.

 

Shelly Carvillano Watson, Becky’s daughter, is a Fairmont West High grad who lives in Ridgeley, West Virginia and works for the Alleghany County Board of Education.

 

Andrea Shelosky, Becky’s niece, is a 1995 Fairmont East High grad.

 

Becky’s family is very athletic. 

 

Chris Carvillano was a wrestler at Fairmont West who won at least one match at the state wrestling tournament. He also played second base for the Polar Bears baseball team.

 

Ron Watson played football for Fairmont West.

 

Noah Carvillano was on the 2012 Fairmont Little League city baseball championship team.

Becky is a daughter of Julia Lazorick Shelosky and Stanley “Strob” Shelosky, the late superb golfer at Green Hills. Julia passed away in 2013, Strob in 1993.

Becky grew up next door to the Kasper family, which included Bob Kasper, Class of 1950, who lives in South Lyon and Presque Isle, Michigan, and Evelyn Kasper Boggess, who lives in her childhood home in Frogtown with her husband, Okey Boggess.

Shirley Knight Ritterhouse moved to Maryland in 1958 after graduating from Fairmont State.  She taught school for three years and worked for 10 years at the U.S. Naval Academy Library.  After marrying husband Paul in 1963 and giving birth to a son in 1965, she started work at the Maryland State Law Library until her 1999 retirement. Shirley and Paul have two grandchildren. They lived in Annapolis city for 53 years, but in 2007 moved to the outskirts of Annapolis. Both her parents are deceased, as is brother Ron. Another brother, Jerry, lives in West Virginia.

Shirley’s son is Paul Ellsworth Ritterhouse.
