Does anyone recall a Sarah Morris?  Think she was ahead of us in class.

Thanks for your help.

I am thankful for all of my family and friends.  Turning 60 certainly gives you the opportunity to have more years from which to reflect.  I have fond memories of our high school days and feel so fortunate that we are staying connected.

Cheryl Denmark (Rowe)

 I am so thankful for my family and friends and being Blessed with good health. I wish all of my fellow classmates a very Happy Thanksgiving . I  hope each of us will try to help someone who is not as Blessed as you are to have a Happy Thanksgiving.  God has a plan for each of us and for that I am grateful I have my Faith to get me through each day.  God Bless you all.

Jean Sheffield (Harris)

Happy Thanksgiving! I'm thankful for many things (family, friends, health) but I am certainly thankful for the great memories I have of growing up in Ft. Pierce.  It was a good life!

Anita Beaver (Sloan)

HAPPY THANKSGIVING TO ALL! I am also thankful for my health, my work, my home, my family, and my friends. We (Ford and I) wish everyone a wonderful Thanksgiving. Hope we can get together again soon.

Jill Russell (Berg)

Reading Dean's sad news and Vicki's, my heart goes out to them.   How sad to lose someone.  It makes me even more aware of how amazingly lucky I am to be surrounded by joy and laughter and family every day.  There are ways to be rich that have nothing ot do with money.  I'm thankful, too, for a way to stay in touch with old friends. 

Barbara Reeves (Brown)

Happy Thanksgiving Classmates!  Much to be thankful about each and every day.

Jimmie Anne Nourse (Haisley)

Wow Vicki...what an adventure.  Glad for you that today is a new day.

JA...I am trying to ignore the Seminole profile photo. since I live in Gatorville and my daughter is a Gator alum.  Remember, we were Gators in Junior High school too, ha.

Jimmie Anne Nourse (Haisley)

I graduated from FSU and so did four of our children so I guess you know who I will be cheering for on Saturday

Rick and I spent the evening at a friend's cabin in Mountain City, TN.  It was a peaceful night and we met many new neighbors.  We were home by 9:30 and attempted to stay up to watch the ball drop.  Fortunately I woke up with 20 seconds to go, woke up Rick and now we can say we stayed up until midnight.  We kissed and then went back to sleep.  Rick has not identified his resolution yet.  My resolution is to continue to keep our love exciting, fresh, spiritual and real.

I'm glad the "This Day in History" on our home page reminded us of that awful day when the Challenger exploded--imagine it's been 26 years today!  I remember I was at work at Horizon Hospital (psychiatric) in Clearwater with deaf patients when a nurse ran to our 3rd-floor window to watch the blast-off.  I got the patients to come over to the window to watch the shuttle soaring, then we were puzzled to see those separate plumes of smoke.  I went to the nurse's station and saw our secretary with her face in shock.  She looked at me and mouthed, "It exploded!"  Then we all ran to the living area to watch the TV news coverage.  So sad!  Where were you?

Jimmie Anne Nourse (Haisley)

I was at the Orange Blossom Mall in Ft. Pierce and watched in horror.  It will forever be etched in my mind.

Michael Ruskin

I too remember that day.  I was in my office finishing up reports for 1985 where I was working on the Okeechobee Canal Waterway from the St. Lucie Locks to Port Mayaca (Lake Okeechobee) for the US Army Corps of Engineers.  Our office is only about 50 air miles from the cape, clear January skies and then the unthinkable, the worst disaster in space history (at that time).  My first thoughts were, if they could have survived the explosion, how would they survive the fall back to earth.  To be sure, we may never know it all.

As kids growing up in the "space age" and with family and friends in related aerospace technologies (my cousin is a scientist working for Honeywell on guidance systems for NASA), we know that this is still an important industry, not only for our local economy, but to all nations 

We thank those brave astronauts, the ones to follow and the ones to come to make a difference for the common good of all mankind.        (Now if they could build spaceship for someone 6"4", that would be great.)
