Olde School Reunion 2015. A party with a purpose.  I've talked to so may people since reunion 2009. I still didnt get a chance  to see  many people that I wanted to talk to, many of them were at the reunion.  I looked at the video and there were soooo many people that were there  I didnt even get to say hello to.  Thank God for 2015.  I get another opportunity and its not at a funeral.  I thank God for this opportunity and this experience.

On behalf of Barbara, Sheila, Sylvia and myself,  I would like to thank everyone that plans to attend Olde School Reunion 2015 and have some fun with your old school  friends and classmates.  Believe-it-or-not,  you're gonna make some new ones too.   I hope to see you there.......

Wow! I can't believe in 5 days, "Old Skool Reunion 2 will be taking place!  I am so excited about the planned events but most importantly fellowshipping with my classmates!  I must admit a twinge of sadness overcame me today !  Barbara informed me that as she was doing the memory section she had to add 18 names that have passed since we last met 6 years ago and how hard it was adding their names to the memoriaI! I thought about some of the classmates  I reached out to saying, I am not feeling it this time maybe next time!   I thought to myself Classmates tomorrow is not promised to us and who knows but God if there will be a next time !  I am so appreciative of those of you who chose to join us in this celepration and thank God for each and every one of you!

I am thinking back to Old Skool Reunion 1 and how it got started.  Barbara, Willard, Diane, Alvin and myself  and a few other classmates were just standing around talking after attending my Cousin Kenneth(Kenny) Ruffin's homegoing services. When someone I don't remember who said,  you know we need to come together on a happy occasion instead of always meeting up at homegoing services!  So, then the idea was born and I was like yes, this is a good idea I will participate.  Well, I have to be honest, I had made this promise many times before but later on would just forget about it.  However, a couple of weeks later Barbara called and said  are you ready to do this ?   I am like well yes, let's talk about it in a few months!  Then she says I am talking about now, do you want to do this or not because if I have to go it alone I will!  I said ok thinking sure she is just talking this but nothing is going to take place. Then she says I have the website all set up! I go to the website and seeing it I get all pumped up and I say ok I will type the names from my yearbook. Believe it or not  I typed the names for the profiles in one night!  We called Willard and said are you still interested in planning the reunion we talked about and he said I am in!  The rest is history! The three of us spent many nights in planning and after seeing the magic in the first one vowed we had to do this again!

So then begin "Old Skool Reunion 2", we enlisted the help of another classmate to join us in planning Old Skool Reunion 2 and she readily accepted!  So Sheila joined us and the Committee went from 3 members to 4.  Sheila we thank you so much for all that you have done and becoming a member of our team! We spent lots of time( many nights ) trying to plan the best reunion we could so that our classmates can fellowship and enjoy each other's company! I pray for traveling grace and mercy for all those traveling to the reunion and God Willing I will see you all there!

Peace, Love and Blessing to all of our classmates that will  there and for those who for any reason that  could not join us!

Sincerely,   Sylvia Jones Martin

Well hello everyone, Yes i am excitedd tobe  able to attend another Old Skool Reunion. We had a wonderful time enjoying one another, and having flash backs from yesterdays.  We came up in a era when everyone was like one big happy family, no matter where you lived.You know since  that time, the Love of my Life, high school sweetheart Willie James Pittman passed, but  God is so faithful and Merciful, he has allowed me to still stand no matter what life brings my way. Sylvia girl you remember everything. I forgot about that talent show we were in. Yes I loved to dance, and still do.smiley. Let's do it.

 

To everyone let's have a great time together, because we don't know how long we are here on this earth. Be Blessed everyone.

@ Mary Pittman you are oh so right ! We had such a good time flashing back to yesterday and seeing classmates we have not seen in years! If we had not come together 6 years ago I never would have got to even see you and your high school sweetheart together.  You know my best friend will not be here this time around either but I know they both are smiling down on us and want us to have a good time!  We have something else in common, I love to dance too from now until the end!  smiley  The 1st one was magical but the 2nd one is going to be even more magical!   EXCITED TO THE MAX! LET'S DO IT AGAIN!

I would like to thank everyone for their support and participation in "Olde school Reunion 2."  Words can't express my feellings in getting to see so many of you.  I've heard so many times that you look the same or you look old.  Remember this.  It's not important how old or young you look.  It's only important that your face reminds me who you are or mine reminds you who I am.  If that fails, then It's only importantant that you or I can help each other remember.  If that fails and no one remembers, you still win.  You've met a new friend..

My word is'nt official.  The rumor is two years.  That gives us two years to look better and feel better to make sure we make it to 2017.  that means, exercise, less red meat, less pork, less sugar and less salt.  Make and keep those doctor's appointments, take prescribed medications on schedule and avoid stress whenever possible.  I'm gonna try to do it,,,,join me..  p.s:  you have two years to start working on those acts.

God is Awesome!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I want to thank each of you that jumped on the band wagon from the start. Hats off to those who came aboard at whatever point. Thank you to Rhoda Martin for hosting the friday evening event. It was such a joy seeing everyone getting their shirts and bags. Those who went to see the Fletchers game said they had a great time. By the way, Fletcher did win . We had fun at the bowling alley, a chance to sit and watch those who did actually bowl. Wow and Saturday at the park was just great. Everyone you missed seeing Friday, you saw and had a chance to talk with them at the park. There is nothing to say about Saturday night that has not already been said.  My heart leaped with joy with the word on sunday Morning. Thank you Bishop Golden and your congregation for opening your doors for us to come and get an anointed word from the Lord. Bishop you left us with a word that will sustain us until we meet again. "Our condition does not have to be our conclusion."

I have noticed that many of you are posting pictures on facebook, and that's fine, but please post some on the site. Remember I did not take pictures and I asked everyone to send me some pictures,and videos....I am waiting. May God keep you until we meet again.

Classmates, Sorry, it has taken me so long to communicate with you after what was a very special occasion and one that I will always hold dear to my heart! Yes, 'WE DID IT AGAIN!'  We all came together to fellowship with each other for what was one heck of a weekend!  God was in the first reunion and he definitely was in the second and he will be in the next reunion!  I had a great time and hope that you all enjoyed our efforts to bring you the best reunion that was possible!  I want to say thanks to my fellow committee members and to all of the support that we received from those that we called on which was many.  Special Thanks to Rhoda Martin Cultural Center and Bishop Golden and Congregation for a special welcome and to Bishop for delivering a special sermon!  Also, a special thanks to my friends Sandra Davis Dabney and Cynthia Turner Smith  and to Roxanne Penn Kennedy who answered my call for help each time I called upon you and to a very special person that made this event extra special( you know who you are)! God brought us together on this wonderful occasion and may we continue to communicate with the old and new friends that we made! Again, it was such a pleasure and blessing to be able to come together with each and every one of you!  God willing I hope to see you again in 2 years!  Take Care and Be Blessed!  I love you all!

Hello to ALL.  I hope everyone had a safe and blessed Christmas.  I did. I've talked to and texted a lot of people over the holidays.  If I missed you, know that you are in my heart and i wish you all a "Happy new  Year."  since we met i've had a birthday, laser surgery on both eyes, bad knees and bad back just to name a few. And I still play tennis two or three times a week.   Hopefully everything will be working by the time we get to the next reunion. If anyone happens to accidentally catch this post,  don't be a stranger.  Stop in and  let your classmates know whats happening with you or just say hello.  Until the next time.........
