Hello, All! 

It's great to hear about the lives and activities of folks in our class, although

I am usually just a lurker. Would love to come to another reunion  but know

it is a lot of work. We are still enjoying California but would also look forward to catching up.

           Hugs,

            Betty (B-J) 💜

Hi Everyone, 

I hope everyone is staying well and strong in these uncertain times.  Please wear a mask when you leave the house and take all the necessary precautions to keep  you and your loved ones healthy.

And if you've had COVID-19, I hope your recovery has gone smoothly and you are healing.

Hello, All!

 It is great to hear that others have gotten vaccinated. I got my first shot in late January and the second 3 weeks later. And Tom got his a little earlier. It is good to know that being this old has some dividends. Most of the stores and other business places in Southern California still require masks, but we are beginning to feel a little less cautious. Still living most of my life on Zoom, but that has been great for our family, every two weeks seeing our kids, grandkids, and great-grandkids online. We haven't seen very many of them since January of 2020. But this summer we are getting together at the Delaware beach for a week, as we have done for the last 30+ years.

I wish you all a wonderful summer and the opportunity to hug those you love and care about.

                                      Blessings,

                                       Betty (B-J)

Looks like the reunion is a go, which is very exciting! CA is very strict about Covid testing and vaccinations, will there be such a requirement to attend the reunion. Just asking...

Great News!

I plan to be there Saturday evening.  Jim and I have not decided whether to fly or drive.

We already have plans to be at Disney World to celebrate our 60th wedding anniversary in December, but a reunion with Grady friends is not to be missed.

A big thank you to Becky and John for planning (and executing)  the reunion this past weekend. It was delightful to see all who could attend and find our conversatons and interactions also reminding us of many activities we had shared with those whio were not there this time to help us celebrate. We are looking forward to our next gatheriing, hopefully even before the next five years pass by.

Like others, Jim and I really appreciate all the effort that went into this reunion.  We had a wonderful time, even if we did not get as much time for conversation as we would have liked.  I am sorry you (Lydia) could not make it, but do understand the caution befolre your husbans's surgery.  Jim still is recovering from his 5th lumbar and lumbar-sacral surgery.  We are grateful fot the miracles of modern medicine that give him a better life than his father and grandfather.  They all have had hereditary ankylosing spondylitis. We wish your husband a successful recovvery.

So many others who attended looked great and seemed to have had a good time.  A group picture was made on two phones.  I hope someone will send one to all of us soon.

Fellow classmates:

Today, I received this message from the daughter of Frances Bradley (Eisenman).

"HI, this is Fran's daughter. Sadly she passed away in June of 2022. I was trying to remember the names of her friends. I recall one named Mary Lou. I have old photos of her as a teen and recall seeing her Grady High yearbooks. I could not find where to put that someone has passed away on here?

My son and I might leave California as it is too expensive etc. I have researched Georgia as both my parents were from there and South Carolina and NC and some of VA. 
Is all of VA full of military? I don't particularly want to be in a totally military town. 

My mom had dementia at the end! As I look back on it I think she had it way before she was diagnosed and wish I'd known! She was acting very strange and our relationship almost ended. At the end she was acting like a spunky teenager and we got along much better. She thought a stuffed animal dog was a real dog and even on her death bed she told me "Keep him. You need him more than I do." And I sleep with the puppy dog every night.
