Gerrie Bernacchi Pretzel

Billy and Brooke's children: 7 year old Will and 4 year old Kate.

ONE CLAIM TO FAME:
Sang at the Myerson Theatre in Dallas with the Women's Chorus of Dallas.
Could't believe it then. Can't believe it now. It was thrilling.

Loved Sister Eleanor. Loved Miss Flood. Loved English classes.
Belong to one reading club now.

In our sophomore year, Lorraine DeRoack was chasing me in the gym.
I ran up onto the stage and thought that I would just pull back the curtain at one end of the stage and jump off and keep running. So I pulled back the curtain,
and ran full force into the wall. The song "Hello, Wall" was popular around that time.....and that became my nickname that year, compliments of Mickie Arzer.

I have to add this:
When news broke regarding JFK's death. Sr. Mary Paul had us all stand up and pray for the person who killed him. I'll never forget that. What a powerful Christian statement.
