I would like to give my heart felt sorrow to the Daisy Grant family. I am so sorry to hear about

Janice Grant. My thought and prays are with you. God bless all of you.

Edith Cumberlander (Lewis) (1975)

OMG, just heard about Janice Grant. My prayers and condolences are definitely with the Grant family. Also reunion family, please send a special prayer to Carlene and Moochie. My heart is full.

Willard Dudley(1971 ) (1971)

I was there when Cynthia and Janice made history as Fletcher cheerleaders.  I was there when Janice was transformed from a tomboy to a princess.  I never heard her cuss or get excessively angry.  My regret is that we didnt keep in touch through the years. As I go back through the Forums photo album, it reminds me of how vibrant she was with an awesome smile. My heart is heavy.  My condolences to the family.  The earth has lost an angel.

Thomas Wharton (1971 ) (1971)

            I just got off the phone with Zigg.  It's impossible to express my feelings on the loss of Jan.  She'd recently moved to Atlanta and was looking forward to retirement and heading back to southern California.  I'd hoped to meet with her before this happened, but it seems God had other plans.  Glory to God.  We are all saddened by her departure. 

            Jan was the girl I had my eyes on when I returned to the beach from Detroit in the summer of 1970.  Willard, you remember, you were going with her at the time.  I convinced you that she was too young for you, a freshman at the time, because we were entering  our senior year and you should know better.  As soon as you dropped her, I caught her and selfishly kept her by my side. I was pleased with myself and made no apologys.  It was all about Jan.  And you never let me forget it.  Bless your heart. 

           The Grant family has suffered greatly this year, as have other familys.  I want you all to know that I suffer with you.  I share your pain of loss.  But know this.  We are humans.  We are born to suffer the loss of our loved ones as we try to make our way through this thing called life.  And we all know that one day we too must pay the ultimate price to live in this world, and we too will be missed.  But God has a plan.  Out of death comes everlasting life and it aint over 'till it's over.  To the Grant family, I love you, I care about you and I feel your loss.  May God wrap His arms around you, comfort you, edify you and one day, on that "Great Gittin' up mornin'", safely bring you home.  Where we will all come together and participate in the greatest class reunion of all time.

THE GRANT FAMILY

Your Loved One lives In Your Heart
Many tender memories soften your grief,
May fond recollection bring you relief,
And may you find comfort and peace in the thought
Of the joy that knowing your loved one brought...
For time and space can never divide
Or keep your loved one from your side
When memory paints in colors true
The happy hours that belonged to you.
 

It is times like this that make you take a moment to examine your life and how your family and friends are so precious. Take a minute out of your busy schedule and call someone and just say something good before its to late.

HELLO ALL, SORRY I'VE BEEN MIA. NO EXCUSES 

Sandra Davis (Dabney) (1973)

Sylvia Jones (Martin) (1973)

To The Grant Family:

I send my deepest sympathy and condolences.  Sorry, it has  taken me so long to respond but it  has taken me a while to come to grips with the loss of my dear classmate Jan Grant , it was so sudden and unexpected,  my brain just took a while to process the loss. I have  spent time remembering our school days and  what I remember  most is her beautiful smile and her ability to get along with people.  Jan wasn't about black and white she liked people and she just had that charisma that drew people to her.  Her genuine personality and sweet disposition was who she was.  I remember her as giving her best to whatever task she took on, whether, it was cheerleading, sports, or singing, she put her all into it.  Jan, to see you at the reunion was just not to be but we will meet again at another glorious reunion.  May God bless the family and help see you all  through what must be a very difficult time. 

Barbara Campbell (Williams) (1973)

I just want to say to the Grant family may God bless and keep you. I totally agree with Sylvia.

Emma Hollis (Jackson) (1971)

To the Grant family. We are sorry to have learned off your loss.  There are no words that can fill the emptiness in your heart...but perhaps it will help to know others care. Please know that our prayers and thoughts are with you in your time of sorrow.

I have talked to Leroy Currelly, he have been quite ill but is doing  better.  Please include him also in your prayers.

Emma Hollis (Jackson) (1971)

I am sadden to learn today that Ralph Kirkland passed on April 10, 2011.  His sister Verna informed  me of that on FB.

Barbara Campbell (Williams) (1973)

It is with our deepest regrets that we inform you that, Reunion 2011 has been officially cancelled.  Due to high operating expenses and the low financial commitment it is impossible to give you the kind of reunion that we (the committee), and you (our classmates) can be proud of. We would like to thank the 13 people that supported our efforts by sending in their contributions in a timely manner.  You should be receiving your refund within the next 7-10 days.

Barbara, Willard, and Sylvia

Denise Law (Davis(1974)) (1975)

Ronald (Zig ) Wharton (1973)

         We all knew  moochie, Ernest Jackson, and we knew he had a raggamuffin side. Recently I learned that while he was sitting the lifeguard chair at the carver center pool he saved the life of a dear friend. I was telling her of his passing , And she said Oh my god he saved my life! She was about 12 years old and drowning.   Moochie did what Flazell Waters taught us to do as Jr. life guards, save lives. I am eternally grateful. Without the heroics of this brother our friendship would have never come to be! That friend is Mary ann Kirkland, and because of Ernest Jackson she is still with us.         peace& Love    Zig
