DescriptionIn this "I remember" memoir, Rev. Thomas Vaga remembers his childhood at Seabrook, the place where he first tasted spaghetti, got poison ivy as a Cub Scout, and received hundreds of "get-well" cards from his classmates when he was in the hospital after being hit by a car. Vaga believes that the members and the clergymen of the Estonian Evangelical Lutheran Congregation at Seabrook had a signigicant influence on him in becoming a clergyman himself. After leaving Seabrook for college life at Rutgers University, he later became a missionary in the Soviet Union. He also worked in Finland and Sweden, and then returned to work at Seabrook. The Seabrook Educational and Cultural Center has been soliciting current and past residents of Seabrook Farms for an "I remember" project. Residents are asked to create narratives regarding their experiences at Seabrook Farms. These memories help preserve the history and multi-cultural heritage of Seabrook Farms.
