Another reunion is recorded for our class of 1957 history. This was our 11th meeting. Everyone is waiting for number 12 in 2011. So I am thinking and planning already. As long as you want reunions and I am able we will continue. Thanks to your generosity... there is money set aside for next year. I would like to continue to have these during the day so us "OLD FOLKS" don't have to drive at night. I think our soda fountain idea was well received. I do apologize for my name on the diner. That was my son's idea of a surprise. It was a lovely surprise but this is not supposed to be about me. It is about US! Sorry!

See you next year

 

Sorry Josie, but the Diner was very appropriately named

"Josie's Diner"

We of the Class of 1957

are deeply indebted to our

Josie

for the 53 years on dedication

to the Class of 57
