My first exposure to the Gosztonyi family was when I was a student at Lehigh University from 1955 to 1959. While there, I contacted Joe Resetar, who hosted a program called "Polka Merry Go-Round" broadcast over radio station WSAN in Allentown, PA. For one night Joe agreed to play Slovak songs from my grandfather's record collection. On that night, probably in 1959, he wished a Happy Birthday to a Mrs Gosztonyi, saying that she was "91 years young". That was for a person born on or near 1868 who must have been Rudolph's grandmother. Funny how that memory has stayed with me for over 60 years. I will always have fond memories of my time at Lehigh University.

Lisa and Adrienne,
Learning Dray´s loss brings great sadness and sorrow. He was such a wonderful man who shared so much with all those he encountered. I enjoyed working with him in D&A. He will be sorely missed.
May God wrap His loving arms around you and comfort you during this time. May you beautiful and fond memories bring your peace in the days ahead.
