Hi All,

I checked with Norton Anti-Virus, and they are gearing up for this virus!
I checked Snopes, and it is for real. Get this E-mail message sent around to all your contacts ASAP.

PLEASE FORWARD THIS WARNING AMONG YOUR FRIENDS, FAMILY AND CONTACTS!

You should be alert during the next few days. Do not open any message with an attachment entitled 'POSTCARD FROM HALLMARK,'regardless of who sent it to you. It is a virus which opens A POSTCARD IMAGE, which 'burns' the whole hard disc C drive of your computer.

This virus will be received from someone who has your e-mail address on his/her contact list. That is the reason why you need to send this e-mail to all your contacts. It is better to receive this message 25 times than to receive the virus and open it!

If you receive a mail called' POSTCARD,' even if it is sent to you by a friend, do not open it! Shut down your computer immediately. This is the worst virus announced by CNN.

It has been classified by Microsoft as the most destructive virus ever. This virus was discovered by McAfee yesterday, and there is no repair yet for this kind of virus. This virus simply destroys the Zero Sector of the Hard Disc, where the vital information is kept.
COPY THIS E-MAIL, AND SEND IT TO YOUR FRIENDS.
REMEMBER: IF YOU SEND IT TO THEM, YOU WILL BENEFIT ALL OF US

***** this was sent to us by Jackie Gilmore (class of '60)
                  Thanks Jack

Joseph Sabastian Bivona

BIVONA, JOSEPH SABASTIAN, age 66, passed away peacefully on Wednesday, March 18, 2009. He was a resident of the Care Center of Opelika for several months. He was born in Birmingham, Alabama, the son of Irene and Joseph Bivona. He attended the University of Alabama and was a member of Kappa Sigma fraternity. He also served his country honorably in the United States Coast Guard on active duty and in the Reserves. He was the co-owner of The Outlet Company, Inc. with retail clothing stores in Bessemer, Birmingham, and Selma, Alabama. Joey was a lifelong fan of the Crimson Tide, holding the same season tickets to the football games originally begun by his father in 1929. An active member of the Bear Bryant Museum, the Million Dollar Band Society, and Tide Pride, Joe was a generous contributor to the University of Alabama football program. He was also diligent in his contributions to the UA Alumni Association, the College of Business and Commerce, and Denny Chimes Memorial. Joe truly loved the Capstone. Joey is survived by his sister Judy Bivona Larrow and her husband Dr. Bart Larrow of Middlebury, Vermont; his nephew Dr. Bart Larrow, Jr., his wife Cettina, and their son Alexander of Middlebury, Vermont. He had many cousins that he loved dearly: Dr. John Thornton, Sandra Bragan, Debbie Elder, Julie Virciglio, Dr. John Bivona, Jake Bivona, Gigi Stidle, all of Birmingham; Cindy Bruner of Mobile, and Vincent Canzoneri of Austin, Texas. A private family burial will be on Saturday, March 21, 2009, at Cedar Hill Cemetery in Bessemer. Father Paul of the Greek Orthodox Cathedral of Holy Trinity-Holy Cross will officiate the graveside service. There will be no visitation hours. Bessemer Brown Service Funeral Home is honored to serve the Bivona family.
