Sheila: It will be fun to see you again if you go to the reunion. I see you have been a legal secretary. Which law firm in Salt Lake? I remember as an 8th grader I was announcing the "Smoker" at Roosevelt Jr. High. They gave me some flowers. I had such a crush on you and wanted to give them to you but was too shy and embarrassed. I hope you are in good health.

Neldon: I'm glad that you have signed up for the Class of 60 profile. It will be fun to catch up at the reunion. I hope you are in good health. With six children, you beat me by one although I have 20 grandchildren and 4 great-grandchildren. I have such great memories of our lives on Browning Avenue and Uintah, Roosefelt Jr. High and East High.

Tom: How are you doing, my friend, I'm so glad you are still alive and kicking. So many great memories of our high school years. I hope we have a May reunion but I am doubting it will happen with the Coronavirus. Is Warren "Butch" Latey still around? MEL

Bob: Great to know you are alive and well. I look forward to seeing you at the reunion. Mel McDonald
