"Happy Birthday" Talut El-Amin

It is better to have a lion at the head of an army of sheep, than a sheep at the head of an army of lions. ~Daniel Defoe~

Your first name of Talut has given you a pleasant, easy-going, friendly nature. As a king appointed by God to rule over the Children of Israel, the Qur'an describes you as leading a few of his men (those who kept faith) into battle against the warriors of Goliath. As you celebrate this milestone, continue to keep the faith. I look forward to seeing you in the near future. Semper FI Marine !

"Happy Birthday"   Almedia & Mary     

Now and then, it's good to pause in our pursuit of happiness and just be happy. ~Guillaume Apollinaire~

I hope that you all had a wonderful day of celebration. Wishing each of you a continuous life of blessings. I look forward to seeing each of you in the near future.

Marsha McMillian (Sherrod)

I want to thank my class mates for your calls, e-mails, voice,facebook, and text messages. Your words of comfort was so uplifting to me when I needed them the most. I just returned home and I am reading your beautiful cards that was waiting for me, the words seem to have been written just for me. The passing of my mother has left me with a broken heart, I have been told by those that have gone through this that time will make it better. I pray that it will because because right now I feel like I will never be the same. But I do find comfort in knowing that you took the time to reach out to me and for that I thank each of you.                                         

I pray God's blessing for you

Marsha

Happy Birthday

to

Gerald Best

AND

to all who had Birthdays that I missed in April up to this point.

Remember, nothing gets old but clothes and wine -clothing we either throw out or replace and wine just tastes so doggone good mellowed with age!

We are just getting more seasoned (the longer you marinate, the better the taste).

May God grant you all many, many, more anniversaries of the day of your birth.

Lots of Love

Gwen

Funeral Arrangements for Kenneth's brother REGINALD ALAN DAVIS

Saturday, May 3, 2014  -  MT. NEBO MISSIONARY BAPTIST CHURCH, 555 Vance AVE

VISITATION:  9:30 - 10:55 AM

FUNERAL:    following at 11:00 AM

Audrey Johnson (Johnson)

In honor of Mother's Day,I would like to honor my mom,Jessie Marie Johnson.My mom passed when I was 25 years old,I felt like I was still trying to find my way in this world.My sister,Gwen(Annie) and I were as some would say "mothers girls".We depended on my mom for advice all the time.I have to say looking back,I should have followed that advice.My mom worked at The Four Way  when we lived in the Lemoyne Gardens.Whenever we went to the Ritz Theatre my mom would come over and bring us chips ,cokes and sometimes those big juicy hamburgers.Of course before we went to the movies ,we all had to go to church.Moms are special,in honor of all moms,each of us no matter where life took us ,should honor the lady that got us here.Take care and stay safe.

The greatest gift that God gave to man was a Woman! Deriving from that precious cargo was the canal journey that we all encountered which is labeled birth. Following this process came the showering of love and care which could only be administrated by the gentle mind and hands of that entity in the family structure known as MOTHER!!! Being Blessed, as Iam to have my mother still with me, time would not permit me to properly display the important roll and experiences that I have witnessed as a result of that one gift that GOD BLESSED me with. With this in mind, I would like to, by way of the web site, publicly Thank GOD for my MOTHER and the gift he gave when he gave man WOMAN!!!  "To all my female classmates, wheather biologically connected to a child or just being the Gift that God gave for that purpose I'd like to say HAPPY MOTHER"S DAY.

Marsha McMillian (Sherrod)

Îjust got in from the class mixture it was a blast I really enjoyed myself  I wish more of our classmates could have made it..  We had so much fun, fellowship, and of course good food. There was other class alumna members there to show support. We missed you hope next time you can make it you will be glade you did. We plan on having more of this type of fun, food but most important fellowship. Pictures on my profile

Audrey Johnson (Johnson)

Marsha,I also had a great time.It was fun to sit and talk to classmates that I have not seen in years.Wanda Thomas was there along with Claudia Grant.Most of us the regulars were there.We danced to the music of the DJ;had good food and great fellowship.I do hope that many of you will come out next time and party with us.Those of you that were not able to attend,you missed the fun.Hope to see you all next time.

Take care and stay safe.Happy Memorial Day to all our VETERANS.

Kathaleen Daugherty (Marion)

You all are up  early reporting on the good time we had at the set  with our classmates and other alumnae.

I really had a nice time.  I stayed in bed a little longer than you all.  Took me a little longer to recoup.  We should  

do this more often.  I hope we can and more of my classmates show up.  It really would be nice.  You are my

 class family and I love family.  Love you all..

Jacqueline Sawyer (Casey)

I also had a great time at the class mixture and my old legs are still sore from trying to line dance. I really wished more of our classmates had come to fellowship with us but maybe next time, they will come. I am looking forward to the next one and the next one. I told some BTW alumni about our mixture and they want to come the next time. I told them good food, good drinks, good music with a DJ, and good fellowship among grown folks. Hope to see more classmates on our next mixture.

Audrey Johnson (Johnson)

I am days late wishing all my classmates a Happy Fathers Day,but I do hope each of you had a great time .Fathers are a very vital part of a childs life,whether it be as a father or grandfather.We are finding that some of the grandfathers are actually raising the grandchildren ,having  to be there for theses young people when the parents are not there for whatever reason.I do hope  that as we all reach the age of 62 that we all get to enjoy our life to the fullest.I hope we are all looking forward to our next reunion.Take care and stay safe.

Marilyn Sanders (Jones)

Classmates,

I just learned this morning of the passing of Kathaleen Daughtery Marion this week.  Her funeral was on June 26th.

Marilyn

Cherlyn Harris (Conner)

I am just hearing of Kathaleen's passing as well...I am so sad to hear of her passing because she is a truly beautiful spirit as Norma stated in her message.  Looking back through the forum, she last posted on 5/27...a little more than a month ago.   Time passes fast!  Time is both a friend and a foe.  Sometimes time gives us the space we need to heal and sometimes time comes to take another warrior home.  

May GOD continue to bless and keep us all...the 1970 Class of BTW!

Mickey

Norma Berden (Winborne)

I do apoligize to the class for the wrong information Kathleen Daughtery Marion funeral is this Thursday July 3rd @ 10:00 am  @Mississippi Blvd Church  furthur info please call her sister 901-503-4088 Ms. Jean Daughtery!!

Kenneth Davis

Thank you Marilyn for posting the announcement. Norma, at this particular time,we're all upset and having a setback concerning Kat. She was just among you all a few days ago. Between you and I, all that really matters is that everyone knows about the service times. Thank you and Carolyn Parker for bringing her passing to our attention. Take care , my friend.........

Marsha McMillian (Sherrod)

I was so sorry to hear of Kathleen's passing I will miss her very much.  We had so much fun at the class party in May she was looking forward to our next one. Kathleen was a very sweet person with a humble spirit and always had a warm smile. Kathleen loved her clsssmates and supported everything we did always willing to do what she could. farewell my friend take your place in the big pow wow tent with our other fallen Warriors.

Audrey Johnson (Johnson)

I am also saddened by Kathaleen's death.It was such a shock,that I am still tryng to adjust to it.She was as Marsha stated full of life  at our last alumni party.She was so looking forward to the next get-together.Kathaleen had a very warm and loving spirit,always keeping a positive attitude ,no matter what the situation.She will be missed,as a friend,as a classmate,and as a spiritual person that truly believed in and lived her faith in God.Take care my friend,I will miss you.
