Road trip, see you there.

Kathleen Lynch (Malis)

I'm not planning on attending the reunion, but can't seem to find a place to let you know that.  The "Not Planning on Attending the Reunion" on the reservations doesn't seem to accomplish that. 

Hope everyone has a good time.

Mary Puhalak (Mauschbaugh)

mary(puhalak)mauschbaugh - I won't be able to attend the reunion.  fifty years sure went by in a hurry.  My husband (Len) and I are both retired and very busy.  We have seven grand nieces and nephews with another on the way.  most of our traveling is to see them with an occasional short trip added in.  hope everyone has a great time at the reunion.   

Philip Kaminski

I am going to attend the reunion.  Check is in the mail, air and hotel reservations are being made.  Thanks to all of you who made this possible.

This forum appears to be a good place to share that on August 7, 2014 my wife, Cathy passed away after 4 years of bravely fighting lung cancer.  God was with us that last day and we shared many gifts.  Before Aug. 7, I couldn't consider attending.  Hopefully, this message will reduce the number of times I will need to explain, "where's Cathy".

Looking forward to seeing you,

Phil, Flip, Kamo

Classmates and Friends,
As we get closer to our 50th reunion I have been doing a lot of reminiscing and sharing of the fun times we had our high school years with our seven grandchildren. Yes, the yearbooks are out and we are doing a lot of looking and laughing.
When Tom & I start talking about “Back in the Day” they enjoy listening, for a little while!
I would like to thank the Team of classmates that have been working on this reunion for over a year now. The web site is put together so nicely. I was a little hesitant at first about getting on it, but am so glad I did. I am enjoying reading the comments and stories. Nice Job!!!
I am so saddened about all our friends that have passed. My loving sister Marilyn and dear friend Arlyne are gone as well. Yes, too soon for sure! They are all remembered fondly.
In looking at some of the pictures that have been sent, I notice we all look the same just more mature. :)
Looking forward to Saturday Dolores (Borer) Morgan

Kathy Gaudio (Sneddon)

Although I will not be attending the reunion, I have enjoyed reading the postings on the website the last two years.  I hope it will continue for awhile after next weekend, so those of us who will not be at the activities, can hear how it all went.  Thank you to the committee who have worked so hard to make the reunion a reality.. Thanks also to Jerry Dykhuisen for keeping us connected for the past fifty years.

Kathy (Gaudio) Sneddon, 

Marilyn Brigger (VanHazebroeck)

Marilynn Brigger VanHazebroeck.....this will be my first reunion....figure better late than never.  My husband and I are enjoying our retirement with life in Burr Ridge and  a recently  purchased farmette in Burlingtin, WI.  We have 2 children and one handsome 1yr old grandson.   Enjoy traveling and do as much as possible.  

Dolores Borer (Morgan)

Classmates & Friends,

Our reunion, in my opinion, was a huge success! It was so good to see and reconnect with  friends who were there. It was wonderful to see & talk with Mr. Nardi again after all these years. He hasn't changed has he?  He is still a great person and I am so glad he was in our lives as teacher and friend.

I am very proud of the Thronridge Class on 1964! Once again thank you to all who made this happen!

Dolores (Borer) Morgan 

Paul Sandilla

Dolores, On behalf of the reunion committee, I want to thank you for attending, and glad you enjoyed it. Paul

Susan Zander (Marz)

I agree that this reunion was a wonderful event.  Recognizing our military was quite an added touch and very moving.  It was good to see and talk to our classmates even the ones we didn't know in school.  Wish it would have lasted longer.  Congrats to the committee for a job well done.  Thanks for the time you all spent because it was worth it and appreciated by all.

Judith Wischhover (Turner)

I had a wonderful time at the reunion.  Thanks to
Paul, Penny, Carol C., Carol M., Rich Zimmerman and so many more.  You made it a beautiful night.  I hope we can have one in 5 years.  I would love to serve on the committee.

Donna Mergler (Roseto)

The committee has received so many thanks for planning the reunion. Please don't forget it was the attendance of our fellow classmates that made it the success it was. 

Lynn Johnson (Walters)

I agree with Donna -

We put the "party" together, but it would not have been such a success if it wasn't for the classmates that attended!

Thanks everyone and I look forward to staying in touch thru the web site.

Curt Voss

We had a great time too, thanks to the committe and all the old and new friends we conected with.  Sorry for those who didn't attend, you missed a great time and a wonderful way to reconnect in person, not on the internet.  If there is another one everyone should try to attend

Chuck Bergstrom

Good morning All...

It's hard to believe it's been almost 3 months since the reunion. Many times over these past months I sat down to write and thank all the folks responsible for such a great time and also thank all the classmates attending the reunion. Since then...  starting a new business and changing my primary business, easy to wait and write later...

It was such a great time and hard to believe how quickly the friendships and memories returned of those 4 very special years, just makes me smile...!

Again, many, many thanks!!

Chuck

Janet Schultz (Fritsche)

It was great to see you again Chuck and the rest of the Franklin "kids"!   Hard to believe how long we've known each other, isn't it?

We just received the program book and flash drive for the reunion. The flash drive is AMAZING! Seeing the reunion pictures for the 10th and 25th reunion made me remember the hard work that was involved. If you haven't ordered the flash drive and attended any of the reunions order one now. It's amazing to see how we have grown up during the past 40 years of reunions.[ I didn't say older]

GREAT WORK GUYS!!!

Tom and Barbara Hibma

Dolores Borer (Morgan)

We received the reunion program and flash drive yesterday and the picture we had taken of ourselves as a couple. I am never happy with pictures of myself but this one both Tom & I like.  

Thank you again for a wonderful 50th reunion!

Hope everyone enjoys a Happy Thanksgiving and Holy Holiday Season.

Our Best Regards to All,

Dolores (Borer) Morgan

Karen DeCamp (Parrilli)

Kudos to the Thornridge 50th Class Reunion Committee.  Thank you for all your efforts and the time you put into a fantastic weekend for the class of 1964.  I am thoroughly enjoying the memory book and the flashdrive -- all 906 pictures!!  Terrific job.

The reunion was a total success. It was well planned and the resort was the best.

Happy to see some of my old friends again. 

Paul, You did a great job getting everyone involved in pulling the off.

If there is another reunion planned please include me. I would love to help.

Don, It wouldn't have come off the way it did without my awesome committee! You can chair the next one....LOL. Rogues 4EVER!
